On the inner and outer bounds of 3-receiver broadcast channels with 2-degraded message sets

We consider a broadcast channel with 3 receivers and 2 messages (M0, M1) where two of the three receivers need to decode messages (M0, M1) while the remaining one just needs to decode the message M0. We study the best known inner and outer bounds under this setting, in an attempt to find the deficiencies with the current techniques of establishing the bounds. We produce a simple example where we are able to explicitly evaluate the inner bound and show that it differs from the general outer bound. For a class of channels where the general inner and outer bounds differ, we use a new argument to show that the inner bound is tight.

On the inner and outer bounds for 2-receiver discrete memoryless broadcast channels

We study the best known general inner bound[MAR '79] and outer bound[N-EG'07] for the capacity region of the two user discrete memory less channel. We prove that a seemingly stronger outer bound is identical to a weaker form of the outer bound that was also presented in [N-EG'07]. We are able to further express the best outer bound in a form that is computable, i.e. there are bounds on the cardinalities of the auxiliary random variables. The inner and outer bounds coincide for all channels for which the capacity region is known and it is not known whether the regions described by these bounds are same or different. We present a channel, where assuming a certain conjecture backed by simulations and partial theoretical results, one can show that the bounds are different.
