On the Shannon capacity of sums and products of graphs

Abstract

Let (G) denote the Shannon capacity of a graph G. We give an elementary proof of the equivalence, for any graphs G and H, of the inequalities (G H)>(G)+(H) and (G H)>(G)(H). This was shown independently by Wigderson and Zuiddam [2022] using Kadison-Dubois duality and the Axiom of choice.
