The notion of 'presentation', as used in combinatorial group theory, is applied to coded character sets(CCSs) - sets which facilitate the interchange of messages in a digital computer network(DCN) . By grouping each element of the set into…
A useful heuristic in the understanding of large random combinatorial structures is the Arratia-Tavare principle, which describes an approximation to the joint distribution of component-sizes using independent random variables. The…
Locally recoverable codes (LRCs) have emerged as fundamental objects in modern coding theory, primarily due to their pivotal role in distributed and cloud storage systems. A major breakthrough in their construction was achieved by Tamo and…
In this paper, we assume an error such that a single insertion occurs and then a single deletion occurs. Under such an error model, this paper provides a decoding algorithm for non-binary quantum codes constructed by Matsumoto and Hagiwara.
In this paper, we study the unit graph $ G(\mathbb{Z}_n) $, where $ n $ is of the form $n = p_1^{n_1} p_2^{n_2} \dots p_r^{n_r}$, with $ p_1, p_2, \dots, p_r $ being distinct prime numbers and $ n_1, n_2, \dots, n_r $ being positive…
A packing lemma is proved using a setting where the channel is a binary-input discrete memoryless channel $(\mathcal{X},w(y|x),\mathcal{Y})$, the code is selected at random subject to parity-check constraints, and the decoder is a joint…
A widely-used operation on graphs is local clustering, i.e., extracting a well-characterized community around a seed node without the need to process the whole graph. Recently local motif clustering has been proposed: it looks for a local…
While motivated by structural problems in mathematical music theory, this article introduces a novel combinatorial framework that advances the classification of cyclic cubic bipartite graphs. We extend the classical study of Levi graphs by…
This paper introduces new structural decompositions for almost symmetric numerical semigroups through the combinatorial lens of Young diagrams. To do that, we use the foundational correspondence between numerical sets and Young diagrams,…
We generalize the problem of reconstructing strings from their substring compositions first introduced by Acharya et al. in 2015 motivated by polymer-based advanced data storage systems utilizing mass spectrometry. Namely, we see strings as…
We present a family of quantum error-correcting codes that support a universal set of transversal logic gates using only local operations on a two-dimensional array of physical qubits. The construction is a subsystem version of color codes…
Term Coding asks: given a finite system of term identities $\Gamma$ in $v$ variables, how large can its solution set be on an $n$--element alphabet, when we are free to choose the interpretations of the function symbols? This turns familiar…
We consider the basic problem of learning an unknown partition of $n$ elements into at most $k$ sets using simple queries that reveal information about a small subset of elements. Our starting point is the well-studied pairwise same-set…
Andrews and El Bachraoui recently studied integer partitions where the smallest part is repeated a specified number of times and any other parts are distinct. Their results included two ``surprising identities'' for which they requested…
We develop a notion of containment for independent sets in hypergraphs. For every $r$-uniform hypergraph $G$, we find a relatively small collection $C$ of vertex subsets, such that every independent set of $G$ is contained within a member…
We prove a far-reaching strengthening of Szemer\'edi's regularity lemma for intersection graphs of pseudo-segments. It shows that the vertex set of such a graph can be partitioned into a bounded number of parts of roughly the same size such…
The family of graphs that can be constructed from isolated vertices by disjoint union and graph join operations are called cographs. These graphs can be represented in a tree-like representation termed parse tree or cotree. In this paper,…
We introduce a binary embedding framework, called Proximity Preserving Code (PPC), which learns similarity and dissimilarity between data points to create a compact and affinity-preserving binary code. This code can be used to apply fast…
Consider a large database of $n$ data items that need to be stored using $m$ servers. We study how to encode information so that a large number $k$ of read requests can be performed in parallel while the rate remains constant (and ideally…
(Hyper)Graph decomposition is a family of problems that aim to break down large (hyper)graphs into smaller sub(hyper)graphs for easier analysis. The importance of this lies in its ability to enable efficient computation on large and complex…
