Abstract In this paper we establish that a maximizer of a non-convex problem in positive semidefinite matrices has a certain property using information-theoretic methods. Further, we propose a Gaussian extremality conjecture, which if true, would imply that Gaussian signaling achieves the capacity region of the Gaussian Z-interference channel. The non-convex problem mentioned above arose naturally in the reduction from the conjecture to the optimality of Gaussian signaling.
