2Authored explanation
The problem was checked as open on 2026-08-01.
The strongest neighboring result found in the cited sources is: The Han-Kobayashi scheme with modern analysis achieves rates within one bit of capacity universally; several parameter regimes are exact.
The exact unresolved remainder is: A matching exact capacity region for arbitrary gains and powers remains unknown.
A complete resolution must meet the following acceptance conditions: - Give matching single-letter or computable inner and outer bounds for all parameters a,b,P₁,P₂. - Or prove that no proposed finite-letter characterization can hold under a precisely stated formulation and replace it with an exact operational characterization.
