Calculating the capacity (with or without feedback) of channels with memory and continuous alphabets is a challenging task. It requires optimizing the directed information (DI) rate over all channel input distributions. The objective is a…
We obtain a new upper bound on the capacity of a class of discrete memoryless relay channels. For this class of relay channels, the relay observes an i.i.d. sequence $T$, which is independent of the channel input $X$. The channel is…

We propose two coding schemes for discrete memoryless broadcast channels (DMBCs) with rate-limited feedback from only one receiver. For any positive feedback rate and for the class of strictly less-noisy DMBCs, our schemes strictly improve…
We study a special case of Willems's two-user multi-access channel with partially cooperating encoders from a security perspective. This model differs from Willems's setup in that only one encoder, Encoder 1, is allowed to conference;…
