We establish the capacity of a class of communication channels introduced in [1]. The $n$-letter input from a finite alphabet is passed through a discrete memoryless channel $P_{Z|X}$ and then the output $n$-letter sequence is uniformly…

Universal fixed-to-variable lossless source coding for memoryless sources is studied in the finite blocklength and higher-order asymptotics regimes. Optimal third-order coding rates are derived for general fixed-to-variable codes and for…

This paper considers the joint compression of a pair of correlated sources, where the encoder is allowed to access only one of the sources. The objective is to recover both sources under separate distortion constraints for each source while…
A multiple-access channel is considered in which messages from one encoder are confidential. Confidential messages are to be transmitted with perfect secrecy, as measured by equivocation at the other encoder. The upper bounds and the…
