We study the fundamental problem of index coding under an additional privacy constraint that requires each receiver to learn nothing more about the collection of messages beyond its demanded messages from the server and what is available to…

In pliable index coding (PICOD), a number of clients are connected via a noise-free broadcast channel to a server which has a list of messages. Each client has a unique subset of messages at the server as side-information, and requests for…

The index coding problem is a problem of efficient broadcasting with side-information. We look at the uniprior index coding problem, in which the receivers have disjoint side-information symbols and arbitrary demand sets. Previous work has…

A spread code is a set of vector spaces of a fixed dimension over a finite field Fq with certain properties used for random network coding. It can be constructed in different ways which lead to different decoding algorithms. In this work we…

A graph $G$ of order $n$ is called edge-pancyclic if, for every integer $k$ with $3 \leq k \leq n$, every edge of $G$ lies in a cycle of length $k$. Determining the minimum size $f(n)$ of a simple edge-pancyclic graph with $n$ vertices…

Let $k\leq n$ be two positive integers and $q$ a prime power. The basic question in minimal linear codes is to determine if there exists an $[n,k]_q$ minimal linear code. The first objective of this paper is to present a new sufficient and…

In this paper, we investigate the index coding problem in the presence of an eavesdropper. Messages are to be sent from one transmitter to a number of legitimate receivers who have side information about the messages, and share a set of…

In Index Coding, the goal is to use a broadcast channel as efficiently as possible to communicate information from a source to multiple receivers which can possess some of the information symbols at the source as side-information. In this…

In pliable index coding, we consider a server with $m$ messages and $n$ clients where each client has as side information a subset of the messages. We seek to minimize the number of broadcast transmissions, so that each client can recover…

We prove that a random linear code over F_q, with probability arbitrarily close to 1, is list decodable at radius (1-1/q-\epsilon) with list size L=O(1/\epsilon^2) and rate R=\Omega_q(\epsilon^2/(log^3(1/\epsilon))). Up to the…

In this paper we study spread codes: a family of constant-dimension codes for random linear network coding. In other words, the codewords are full-rank matrices of size (k x n) with entries in a finite field F_q. Spread codes are a family…
