For two σ-algebras 𝓐 and ℬ, the ρ-mixing coefficient ρ(𝓐,ℬ) between 𝓐 and ℬ is the supremum correlation between two real random variables X and Y which are 𝓐 - resp. ℬ-measurable; the τ'(𝓐,ℬ) coefficient is defined similarly, but restricting to the case where X and Y are indicator functions. It has been known for a long time that the bound ρ ≤ Cτ'(1 + en | log τ'|) holds for some constant C; in this article, we show that C = 1 works and is best possible.
