In the setting of error-correcting codes with feedback, Alice wishes to communicate a $k$-bit message $x$ to Bob by sending a sequence of bits over a channel while noiselessly receiving feedback from Bob. It has been long known (Berlekamp,…
We investigate adaptive single-trial error/erasure decoding of binary codes whose decoder is able to correct e errors and t erasures if le+t<=d-1. Thereby, d is the minimum Hamming distance of the code and 1<l<=2 is the tradeoff parameter…

We present a quantum error correction code which protects three quantum bits (qubits) of quantum information against one erasure, i.e., a single-qubit arbitrary error at a known position. To accomplish this, we encode the original state by…
We consider rate R = k/n causal linear codes that map a sequence of k-dimensional binary vectors {b_t} to a sequence of n-dimensional binary vectors {c_t}, such that each c_t is a function of {b_1,b_2,...,b_t}. Such a code is called anytime…
