    Abstract
    In this paper, a new measure of correlation is introduced. This measure depends on a parameter α, and is defined in terms of vector-valued Lp norms. The measure is within a constant of the exponential of α-Rényi mutual information, and reduces to the trace norm (total variation distance) for α = 1. We provide some properties and applications of this measure of correlation. In particular, we establish a bound on the secrecy exponent of the wiretap channel (under the total variation metric) in terms of the α-Rényi mutual information according to Csiszár's proposal. © 2019 IEEE
