The capacity of line networks with buffer size constraints is an open, but practically important problem. In this paper, the upper bound on the achievable rate of a class of codes, called batched codes, is studied for line networks. Batched…
A typical workflow for solving a linear programming problem is to first write a linear program parametrized by the data in a language such as Math GNU Prog or AMPL then call the solver on this program while providing the data. When the data…
Sum-rank codes are an important class of codes which can be utilized for linear network coding, space-time coding and distributed storage. They can not only reduce the size of network alphabet but also detect and correct more errors. Based…
We discuss inequalities holding between the vocabulary size, i.e., the number of distinct nonterminal symbols in a grammar-based compression for a string, and the excess length of the respective universal code, i.e., the code-based analog…
The problem of computing a linear combination of sources over a multiple access channel is studied. Inner and outer bounds on the optimal tradeoff between the communication rates are established when encoding is restricted to random…
We consider the problem of coded distributed computing where a large linear computational job, such as a matrix multiplication, is divided into $k$ smaller tasks, encoded using an $(n,k)$ linear code, and performed over $n$ distributed…
In this paper, we establish a new law of large numbers with the rate of convergence for special partial sums in a probability space. The proof relies on nonlinear expectation theory, as the uncertainty of random variables in the special…

A self-dual binary linear code is called Type I code if it has singly-even codewords, i.e.~it has codewords with weight divisible by $2.$ The purpose of this paper is to investigate interesting properties of Type I codes of different…
We prove that any algorithm computing the sum-exclude-self of an unsigned $d$-bit integer array of length $n$ under sublinear space must perform two linear passes over the input. More precisely, the algorithm must read at least $n-1$ input…
Motivated by applications in polymer-based data storage we introduced the new problem of characterizing the code rate and designing constant-weight binary $B_2$-sequences. Binary $B_2$-sequences are collections of binary strings of length…
A sum-rank-metric code attaining the Singleton bound is called maximum sum-rank distance (MSRD). MSRD codes have been constructed for some parameter cases. In this paper we construct a linear MSRD code over an arbitrary field ${\bf F}_q$…
Suppose that $P$ is a property that may be satisfied by a random code $C \subset \Sigma^n$. For example, for some $p \in (0,1)$, ${P}$ might be the property that there exist three elements of $C$ that lie in some Hamming ball of radius…
Explicit non-asymptotic upper bounds on the sizes of multiple-deletion correcting codes are presented. In particular, the largest single-deletion correcting code for $q$-ary alphabet and string length $n$ is shown to be of size at most…
A family of error-correcting codes is list-decodable from error fraction $p$ if, for every code in the family, the number of codewords in any Hamming ball of fractional radius $p$ is less than some integer $L$ that is independent of the…
We investigate additive properties of sets $A,$ where $A=\{a_1,a_2,\ldots ,a_k\}$ is a monotone increasing set of real numbers, and the differences of consecutive elements are all distinct. It is known that $|A+B|\geq c|A||B|^{1/2}$ for any…
Reed-Solomon codes are a classic family of error-correcting codes consisting of evaluations of low-degree polynomials over a finite field on some sequence of distinct field elements. They are widely known for their optimal unique-decoding…
We show that any q-ary code with sufficiently good distance can be randomly punctured to obtain, with high probability, a code that is list decodable up to radius $1 - 1/q - \epsilon$ with near-optimal rate and list sizes. Our results imply…
Subspace codes were introduced in order to correct errors and erasures for randomized network coding, in the case where network topology is unknown (the noncoherent case). Subspace codes are indeed collections of subspaces of a certain…
Codes in the sum-rank metric have received many attentions in recent years, since they have wide applications in the multishot network coding, the space-time coding and the distributed storage. Fundamental bounds, some explicit or…
