Difference of Sums Containing Products of Binomial Coefficients and their Logarithms

Abstract

Properties of the difference of two sums containing products of binomial coefficients and their logarithms which arise in the application of Shannon's information theory to a certain class of covert channels are deduced. Some allied consequences of the latter are also recorded.
