We show that many classical decision problems about 1-counter omega-languages, context free omega-languages, or infinitary rational relations, are $\Pi_2^1$-complete, hence located at the second level of the analytical hierarchy, and…

We explicitly construct and list all unitary superconformal multiplets, along with their index contributions, in five and six dimensions. From this data, we uncover various unifying themes in the representation theory of five- and…

The combined universal probability M(D) of strings x in sets D is close to max_{x \in D} M({x}): their ~ logs differ by at most D's information j = I(D:H) about the halting sequence H. Thus if all x have complexity K(x) > k, D carries > i…

Automorphism-ensemble decoding is applied to the Plotkin constituents of Reed-Muller codes, resulting in a new soft-decision decoding algorithm with state-of-the-art performance versus complexity trade-offs.

Let pi = pi_1 pi_2 ... pi_n be a permutation in the symmetric group S_n written in one-line notation. The pinnacle set of pi, denoted Pin pi, is the set of all pi_i such that pi_{i-1} < pi_i > pi_{i+1}. This is an analogue of the…

Orthogonal sets of idempotents are used to design sets of unitary matrices, known as constellations, such that the modulus of the determinant of the difference of any two distinct elements is greater than $0$. It is shown that unitary…

We reconsider some classical natural semantics of integers (namely iterators of functions, cardinals of sets, index of equivalence relations), in the perspective of Kolmogorov complexity. To each such semantics one can attach a simple…

Multiplicity codes are algebraic error-correcting codes generalizing classical polynomial evaluation codes, and are based on evaluating polynomials and their derivatives. This small augmentation confers upon them better local decoding,…

Odifreddi asked whether every non-irreducible many-one degree must contain an infinite antichain of one-one degrees. Positive answers are known for computably enumerable many-one degrees (Degtev) and, more recently, for many-one degrees…

We prove the existence of codebooks for d-semifaithful lossy compression that are simultaneously universal with respect to both the class of finite-alphabet memoryless sources and the class of all bounded additive distortion measures. By…

We outline a general algorithm for verifying whether a subset of the integers is a more sum than differences (MSTD) set, also known as sum dominated sets, and give estimates on its computational complexity. We conclude with some numerical…

Over any discrete memoryless channel, we build codes such that: for one, their block error probabilities and code rates scale like random codes'; and for two, their encoding and decoding complexities scale like polar codes'. Quantitatively,…

We build on a working program initiated by Pudl\'ak [Pud17] and construct an oracle relative to which each $\mathrm{coNP}$-complete set has $\mathrm{P}$-optimal proof systems and $\mathrm{NP}\cap\mathrm{coNP}$ does not have complete…

This paper provides a mathematical analysis of optimal algebraic manipulation detection (AMD) codes. We prove several lower bounds on the success probability of an adversary and we then give some combinatorial characterizations of AMD codes…

Data vectors generalise finite multisets: they are finitely supported functions into a commutative monoid. We study the question if a given data vector can be expressed as a finite sum of others, only assuming that 1) the domain is…

We introduce new definitions of universal and superuniversal computable codes, which are based on a code's ability to approximate Kolmogorov complexity within the prescribed margin for all individual sequences from a given set. Such sets of…

The notion of generic reducibility was introduced by A.Rybalov in his CiE 2018 paper: a set A is generically reducible to set B if there exists a total computable function f that m-reduces A to B such that the f-preimage of every set that…

Motivated by the set-antiset method for codes over permutations under the infinity norm, we study anticodes under this metric. For half of the parameter range we classify all the optimal anticodes, which is equivalent to finding the maximum…

Universal continuous calculi are defined and it is shown that for every finite tuple of pairwise commuting Hermitian elements of a Su*-algebra (an ordered *-algebra that is symmetric, i.e. "strictly" positive elements are invertible, and…

For any q which is a power of 2 we describe a finite subgroup of the group of invertible complex q by q matrices under which the complete weight enumerators of generalized doubly-even self-dual codes over the field with q elements are…
