We consider streaming data transmission over a discrete memoryless channel. A new message is given to the encoder at the beginning of each block and the decoder decodes each message sequentially, after a delay of $T$ blocks. In this…

We show that it is possible to transmit and preserve information at short time scales over an n-fold composition of quantum channels $(\Xi^n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ modelled as a discrete quantum Markov semigroup, long enough to generate…

Bound entanglement refers to entangled states that cannot be distilled into maximally entangled states and therefore cannot directly be used in many quantum information processing protocols. We identify a relationship between bound…

We study stochastic optimization algorithms for constrained nonconvex stochastic optimization problems with Markovian data. In particular, we focus on the case when the transition kernel of the Markov chain is state-dependent. Such…

The communication of directions using quantum states is a useful laboratory test for some basic facts of quantum information. For a system of spin-1/2 particles there are different quantum states that can encode directions. This information…

For any binary-input channel with perfect state information at the decoder, if the mutual information between the noisy state observation at the encoder and the true channel state is below a positive threshold determined solely by the state…

We consider three capacity definitions for general channels with channel side information at the receiver, where the channel is modeled as a sequence of finite dimensional conditional distributions not necessarily stationary, ergodic, or…

In this paper, a two-user discrete memoryless multiple-access channel (DM-MAC) with correlated channel states, each known at one of the encoders is considered, in which each encoder transmits independent messages and tries to cooperate with…

Shannon defined channel capacity as the highest rate at which there exists a sequence of codes of block length $n$ such that the error probability goes to zero as $n$ goes to infinity. In this definition, it is implicit that the block…

In quantum Shannon theory, the way information is encoded and decoded takes advantage of the laws of quantum mechanics, while the way communication channels are interlinked is assumed to be classical. In this Letter we relax the assumption…

We consider the problem of authenticated communication over a discrete arbitrarily varying channel where the legitimate parties are unaware of whether or not an adversary is present. When there is no adversary, the channel state always…

We consider a 1-to-$K$ communication scenario, where a source transmits private messages to $K$ receivers through a broadcast erasure channel, and the receivers feed back strictly causally and publicly their channel states after each…

We show that the duality between channel capacity and data compression is retained when state information is available to the sender, to the receiver, to both, or to neither. We present a unified theory for eight special cases of channel…
