In this paper we define critical graphs as minimal graphs that support a given set of rates for the index coding problem, and study them for both the one-shot and asymptotic setups. For the case of equal rates, we find the critical graph…
Index coding, or broadcasting with side information, is a network coding problem of most fundamental importance. In this problem, given a directed graph, each vertex represents a user with a need of information, and the neighborhood of each…
The index coding problem is a problem of efficient broadcasting with side-information. We look at the uniprior index coding problem, in which the receivers have disjoint side-information symbols and arbitrary demand sets. Previous work has…
In this paper, new index coding problems are studied, where each receiver has erroneous side information. Although side information is a crucial part of index coding, the existence of erroneous side information has not yet been considered.…
The length of an optimal scalar linear index code of a groupcast index coding problem is equal to the minrank of its side information hypergraph. The side-information hypergraph becomes a side-information graph for a special class of…

Criticality is a fundamental notion in graph theory that has been studied continually since its introduction in the early 50s by Dirac. A graph is called $k$-vertex-critical ($k$-edge-critical) if it is $k$-chromatic but removing any vertex…
Cycles and Cliques in a side-information graph reduce the number of transmissions required in an index coding problem. Thapa, Ong and Johnson defined a more general form of overlapping cycles, called the interlinked-cycle (IC) structure,…
A new inner bound on the capacity region of a general index coding problem is established. Unlike most existing bounds that are based on graph theoretic or algebraic tools, the bound is built on a random coding scheme and optimal decoding,…
The index coding problem studies the fundamental limit on broadcasting multiple messages to their respective receivers with different sets of side information that are represented by a directed graph. The generalized lexicographic product…

A problem of index coding with side information was first considered by Y. Birk and T. Kol (IEEE INFOCOM, 1998). In the present work, a generalization of index coding scheme, where transmitted symbols are subject to errors, is studied.…

Capacity analysis for channels with side information at the receiver has been an active area of interest. This problem is well investigated for the case of finite alphabet channels. However, the results are not easily generalizable to the…
