FKN Theorem on the biased cube

arXiv:1311.3179

Abstract

In this note we consider Boolean functions defined on the discrete cube equipped with a biased product probability measure. We prove that if the spectrum of such a function is concentrated on the first two Fourier levels, then the function is close to a certain function of one variable. Moreover, in the symmetric case we prove that if a [-1,1]-valued function defined on the discrete cube is close to a certain affine function, then it is also close to a [-1,1]-valued affine function.
