As a class of state-dependent channels, Markov channels have been long studied in information theory for characterizing the feedback capacity and error exponent. This paper studies a more general variant of such channels where the state…

In this paper we study the multiple access channel (MAC) with combined cooperation and partial cribbing and characterize its capacity region. Cooperation means that the two encoders send a message to one another via a rate-limited link…

We consider secrecy obtained when one transmits on a Gaussian Wiretap channel above the secrecy capacity. Instead of equivocation, we consider probability of error as the criterion of secrecy. The usual channel codes are considered for…

A problem of distributed state estimation at multiple agents that are physically connected and have competitive interests is mapped to a distributed source coding problem with additional privacy constraints. The agents interact to estimate…

The two-user discrete memoryless state-dependent multiple-access channel (MAC) models a scenario in which two encoders transmit independent messages to a single receiver via a MAC whose channel law is governed by the pair of encoders'…

This paper considers a Gaussian multi-input multi-output (MIMO) wiretap channel with a legitimate transmitter, a legitimate receiver (Bob), an eavesdropper (Eve), and a cooperative jammer. All nodes may be equipped with multiple antennas.…

Recent work has established that when transmitter Alice wishes to communicate reliably to recipient Bob without detection by warden Willie, with additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels between all parties, communication is limited to…

In this paper, we investigate covert communication over millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies. In particular, a mmWave transmitter, referred to as Alice, attempts to reliably communicate to a receiver, referred to as Bob, while hiding the…

In this work, we consider a scenario where two multiple-aperture legitimate nodes (Alice and Bob) communicate by means of Free-Space Optical (FSO) communication in the presence of a multiple-aperture eavesdropper (Eve), which is subject to…

A lower bound on the secrecy capacity of the wiretap channel with state information available causally at both the encoder and decoder is established. The lower bound is shown to be strictly larger than that for the noncausal case by Liu…

Despite considerable progress on the information-theoretic broadcast channel, the capacity region of fading broadcast channels with channel state known at the receivers but unknown at the transmitter remains unresolved. We address this…

We study the capacity of secret-key agreement over a wiretap channel with state parameters. The transmitter communicates to the legitimate receiver and the eavesdropper over a discrete memoryless wiretap channel with a memoryless state…

We establish the capacity region of several classes of broadcast channels with random state in which the channel to each user is selected from two possible channel state components and the state is known only at the receivers. When the…

The capacity of a memoryless state-dependent channel is derived for a setting in which the encoder is provided with rate-limited assistance from a cribbing helper that observes the state sequence causally and the past channel inputs…

We give a proof that entanglement purification, even with noisy apparatus, is sufficient to disentangle an eavesdropper (Eve) from the communication channel. In the security regime, the purification process factorises the overall initial…

This paper introduces a quantitative generalization of the ``more capable'' comparison of broadcast channels, which is termed ``more capable with advantage''. Some basic properties are demonstrated (including tensorization on product…

We consider distillation of secret bits from partially secret noisy correlations P_ABE, shared between two honest parties and an eavesdropper. The most studied distillation scenario consists of joint operations on a large number of copies…

We characterise bounds on the optimal broadcast rate for a few classes of pliable-index-coding instances. Unlike the majority of currently solved instances, which belong to a special class where all receivers with a certain side-information…
