Blockwise channel capacity: the asymptotic limit form #

For memoryless DMC, the asymptotic per-letter capacity capacity_lim W := lim_{n → ∞} (1/n) · sup_{p^n} I(X^n; Y^n) matches the single-letter capacity W. This follows directly from the per-n equality capacityN_ofMemoryless_eq (the sequence is eventually the constant capacity W).

Limit form matches the single-letter capacity W in the memoryless case. Direct from the per-n equality (the sequence is eventually the constant capacity W).
