We consider the problem of computing the capacity of a coded, multicast network over a small alphabet. We introduce a novel approach to this problem based on mixed integer programming. As an application of our approach, we recover, extend…
A new method is proposed to derive rigorous bounds on {\eta}, the growth rate of the logarithm of the number of independent sets on a hexagonal lattice. Specifically, we prove that 1.546440708536001 <= {\eta} <= 1.5513, which improves upon…
For codes equipped with metrics such as Hamming metric, symbol pair metric or cover metric, the Johnson bound guarantees list-decodability of such codes. That is, the Johnson bound provides a lower bound on the list-decoding radius of a…

Single-shot error correction outperforms conventional approaches by requiring only one round of stabilizer measurements for decoding, even in the presence of measurement errors. This capability relates to the confinement property of codes,…
