A code of the natural numbers is a uniquely-decodable binary code of the natural numbers with non-decreasing codeword lengths, which satisfies Kraft's inequality tightly. We define a natural partial order on the set of codes, and show how…
This note reports on the number of s-partitions of a natural number n. In an s-partition each cell has the form $2^k-1$ for some integer k. Such partitions have potential applications in cryptography, specifically in distributed…
For general connections, the problem of finding network codes and optimizing resources for those codes is intrinsically difficult and little is known about its complexity. Most of the existing solutions rely on very restricted classes of…
We prove that several results in different areas of number theory such as the divergent series, summation of arithmetic functions, uniform distribution modulo one and summation over prime numbers which are currently considered to be…
The $k$-dimensional coding schemes refer to a collection of methods that attempt to represent data using a set of representative $k$-dimensional vectors, and include non-negative matrix factorization, dictionary learning, sparse coding,…
When applying Grover's algorithm to an unordered database, the probability of obtaining correct results usually decreases as the quantity of target increases. To amend the limitation, numbers of improved schemes are proposed. In this paper,…
An additive noise channel is considered, in which the distribution of the noise is nonparametric and unknown. The problem of learning encoders and decoders based on noise samples is considered. For uncoded communication systems, the problem…
In two recent articles we have examined a generalization of the binomial distribution associated with a sequence of positive numbers, involving asymmetric expressions of probabilities that break the symmetry {\it win-loss}. We present in…
Constrained coding plays a key role in optimizing performance and mitigating errors in applications such as storage and communication, where specific constraints on codewords are required. While non-parametric constraints have been…
In this paper we generalize an explicit numerical scheme for the CIR process that we have proposed before. The advantage of the new proposed scheme is that preserves positivity and is well posed for a (little bit) broader set of parameters…
In this work, we generalize the integer enumeration basis. We also construct bijections between the elements of special sets and the elements of some groups, and treat the special case of the hyperoctohedral groups. Then, we find a code…
This work presents a formalization of the theorem of existence of most general unifiers in first-order signatures in the higher-order proof assistant PVS. The distinguishing feature of this formalization is that it remains close to the…
Summation by parts is used to find the sum of a finite series of generalized harmonic numbers involving a specific polynomial or rational function. The Euler-Maclaurin formula for sums of powers is used to find the sums of some finite…
We provide a general formulation for the code-based test compression problem with fixed-length input blocks and propose a solution approach based on Evolutionary Algorithms. In contrast to existing code-based methods, we allow unspecified…
The at-most-k constraint is ubiquitous in combinatorial problems, and numerous SAT encodings are available for the constraint. Prior experiments have shown the competitiveness of the sequential-counter encoding for k $>$ 1, and have…
Baranyai's theorem is a well-known theorem in the theory of hypergraphs. A corollary of this theorem says that one can partition the family of all $u$-subsets of an $n$-element set into ${n-1\choose u-1}$ sub-families such that each…
We put forth new models for universal channel coding. Unlike standard codes which are designed for a specific type of channel, our most general universal code makes communication resilient on every channel, provided the noise level is below…
We apply Schrijver's semidefinite programming method to obtain improved upper bounds on generalized distances and list decoding radii of binary codes.
In the case of ordinary identification coding, a code is devised to identify a single object among $N$ objects. But, in this paper, we consider an identification coding problem to identify $K$ objects at once among $N$ objects in the both…
The concept of generalized concatenated quantum codes (GCQC) provides a systematic way for constructing good quantum codes from short component codes. We introduce a stabilizer formalism for GCQCs, which is achieved by defining quantum…
