title = "Scalar and Matrix Chernoff Bounds from ℓ∞-Independence",
abstract = "We present new scalar and matrix Chernoff-style concentration bounds for a broad class of probability distributions over the binary hypercube {0, 1}n. Motivated by recent tools developed for the study of mixing times of Markov chains on discrete distributions, we say that a distribution is ℓ∞-independent when the infinity norm of its influence matrix is bounded by a constant. We show that any distribution which is ℓ∞-infinity independent satisfies a matrix Chernoff bound that matches the matrix Chernoff bound for independent random variables due to Tropp. Our matrix Chernoff bound is a broad generalization and strengthening of the matrix Chernoff bound of Kyng and Song (FOCS'18).",
