Given α >1 and fixed mean E f , which Boolean function f has the largest α -th moment E(Tf)α ? This question has close connections with noise stability of Boolean functions, the problem of non-interactive correlation distillation, and Courtade-Kumar's conjecture on the most informative Boolean function. In this paper, we characterize maximizers in some extremal settings, such as low noise (=(n) close to 0), high noise (=(n) close to 1/2), as well as when α =α (n) is large. Analogous results are also established in more general contexts, such as Boolean functions defined on discrete torus (Z/p Z)n and the problem of noise stability in a tree model.
