Streszczenie
The optimal hypercontractivity constant for a natural operator semigroup acting on a discrete finite probability space is established up to a universal factor. The two-point spaces are proved to be the extremal case. The constants obtained are also optimal in the related moment inequalities for sums of independent random variables.
