Strong extraction by a finite recursive block program #
An initial condenser, the supplied sequence of lossless condensers and entropy budgets, and a final strong extractor give a strong extractor for the actual deterministic recursive composition. Its tests retain every initial, level, and final seed, once each. No initial ideal witness is a premise: the initial condenser supplies that witness for every source.
The error is the initial error, the explicit internal block-error sum, and
one final extraction error per leaf. Giving every local error exponent
e+n+2 bounds the total by 2^(-e). These are finite statistical statements
for supplied components in the recursion of Chattopadhyay--Goodman--Liao,
Theorem 5.6 of Affine Extractors for Almost Logarithmic Entropy,
https://eccc.weizmann.ac.il/report/2021/075/. Recursion.Scheduled supplies a
concrete short-seed schedule and a uniform encoded evaluator.
The actual recursive map extracts strongly from the initial input threshold, with all internal and leaf errors included in its retained-seed test bound.
Uniform local error exponent e+n+2 pays for the initial, internal, and leaf stages.
