Consider communication over a channel whose probabilistic model is completely unknown vector-wise and is not assumed to be stationary. Communication over such channels is challenging because knowing the past does not indicate anything about…

We generalize the random coding argument of stabilizer codes and derive a lower bound on the quantum capacity of an arbitrary discrete memoryless quantum channel. For the depolarizing channel, our lower bound coincides with that obtained by…

Classically, communication systems are designed assuming perfect channel state information at the receiver and/or transmitter. However, in many practical situations, only an estimate of the channel is available that differs from the true…

We focus on designing error-correcting codes for the symmetric Gaussian broadcast channel with feedback. Feedback not only expands the capacity region of the broadcast channel but also enhances transmission reliability. In this work, we…

We study the problem of generating an approximately i.i.d. string at the output of a discrete memoryless channel using a limited amount of randomness at its input in presence of causal noiseless feedback. Feedback does not decrease the…

We consider data transmission across discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) using variable-length codes with feedback. We consider the family of such codes whose rates are $\rho_N$ below the channel capacity $C$, where $\rho_N$ is a positive…

The utility of limited feedback for coding over an individual sequence of DMCs is investigated. This study complements recent results showing how limited or noisy feedback can boost the reliability of communication. A strategy with fixed…

We develop a novel framework for proving converse theorems for channel coding, which is based on the analysis technique of multicast transmission with an additional auxiliary receiver, which serves as a genie to the original receiver. The…

We consider the $K\geq 2$-user memoryless Gaussian broadcast channel (BC) with feedback and common message only. We show that linear-feedback schemes with a message point, in the spirit of Schalkwijk & Kailath's scheme for point-to-point…

We establish an upper bound on the rate of codes for a wiretap channel with public feedback for a fixed probability of error and secrecy parameter. As a corollary, we obtain a strong converse for the capacity of a degraded wiretap channel…

We consider finite state channels (FSCs) with feedback and state information known causally at the encoder. This setting is quite general and includes: a memoryless channel with i.i.d. state (the Shannon strategy), Markovian states that…
