The trapping redundancy of a linear code is the number of rows of a smallest parity-check matrix such that no submatrix forms an $(a,b)$-trapping set. This concept was first introduced in the context of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes…

Given a parity-check matrix $H_m$ of a $q$-ary Hamming code, we consider a partition of the columns into two subsets. Then, we consider the two codes that have these submatrices as parity-check matrices. We say that anyone of these two…

-We develop a polar coding scheme for empirical coordination in a two-node network with a noisy link in which the input and output signals have to be coordinated with the source and the reconstruction. In the case of non-causal encoding and…

We study parity features as representations that can be evaluated entirely classically once the binary or quantized input representation and parity words are fixed, particularly when labels depend on higher-order feature interactions or…

We initiate the probabilistic analysis of linear programming (LP) decoding of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. Specifically, we show that for a random LDPC code ensemble, the linear programming decoder of Feldman et al. succeeds in…

Due to the advantage of capacity-achieving, polar codes have been extended to the block fading channel whereas most constructions involve complex iterative-calculation. In this paper, we establish a systematic framework to analyze the error…

Recently, a novel variation of polar codes known as polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes has been introduced by Ar{\i}kan. These codes significantly outperform conventional polar and convolutional codes, particularly for short…

A polar coding scheme is proposed for the Wiretap Broadcast Channel with two legitimate receivers and one eavesdropper. We consider a model in which the transmitter wishes to send different confidential (and non-confidential) information to…

Convolutional precoding in polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes can reduce the number of minimum weight codewords (a.k.a error coefficient) of polar codes. This can result in improving the error correction performance of (near)…

We consider a variant of the channel simulation problem with a single input and multiple outputs, where Alice observes a probability distribution $P$ from a set of prescribed probability distributions $\mathbb{\mathcal{P}}$, and sends a…

We present a framework that can exploit the tradeoff between the undetected error rate (UER) and block error rate (BLER) of polar-like codes. It is compatible with all successive cancellation (SC)-based decoding methods and relies on a…

Polar codes have received growing attention in the past decade and have been selected as the coding scheme for the control channel in the fifth generation (5G) wireless communication systems. However, the conventional polar codes have only…

In the Shannon lecture at the 2019 International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), Ar{\i}kan proposed to employ a one-to-one convolutional transform as a pre-coding step before the polar transform. The resulting codes of this…
