This paper shows that there exist Reed--Solomon (RS) codes, over \black{exponentially} large finite fields \black{in the code length}, that are combinatorially list-decodable well beyond the Johnson radius, in fact almost achieving the…
It is known that sparse superposition codes asymptotically achieve the channel capacity over the additive white Gaussian noise channel with both maximum likelihood decoding and efficient decoding (Joseph and Barron in 2012, 2014). Takeishi…
Random linear codes are a workhorse in coding theory, and are used to show the existence of codes with the best known or even near-optimal trade-offs in many noise models. However, they have little structure besides linearity, and are not…
We prove that, for all binary-input symmetric memoryless channels, polar codes enable reliable communication at rates within $\epsilon > 0$ of the Shannon capacity with a block length, construction complexity, and decoding complexity all…
$A'(n,d,e)$, the smallest $\ell$ for which every binary error-correcting code of length $n$ and minimum distance $d$ is decodable with a list of size $\ell$ up to radius $e$, is determined for all $d\geq 2e-3$. As a result, $A'(n,d,e)$ is…
This paper deals with Low-Density Construction-A (LDA) lattices, which are obtained via Construction A from non-binary Low-Density Parity-Check codes. More precisely, a proof is provided that Voronoi constellations of LDA lattices achieve…

Polar codes provably achieve the capacity of a wide array of channels under successive decoding. This assumes infinite precision arithmetic. Given the successive nature of the decoding algorithm, one might worry about the sensitivity of the…
We introduce a new family of binary linear codes suitable for steganographic matrix embedding. The main characteristic of the codes is the staircase random block structure of the generator matrix. We propose an efficient list decoding…
We discuss and analyze a list-message-passing decoder with verification for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes on the q-ary symmetric channel (q-SC). Rather than passing messages consisting of symbol probabilities, this decoder passes…
Deterministic identification offers an efficient solution for scenarios where decoding entire messages is unnecessary. It is commonly used in alarm systems and control systems. A key advantage of this approach is that the capacity for…
The fundamental and natural connection between the infinite constellation (IC) dimension and the best diversity order it can achieve is investigated in this paper. In the first part of this work we develop an upper bound on the diversity…
Shannon gave a lower bound in 1959 on the binary rate of spherical codes of given minimum Euclidean distance $\rho$. Using nonconstructive codes over a finite alphabet, we give a lower bound that is weaker but very close for small values of…
We present near-linear time list decoding algorithms (in the block-length $n$) for expander-based code constructions. More precisely, we show that (i) For every $\delta \in (0,1)$ and $\epsilon > 0$, there is an explicit family of good…
Recently, a new class of codes, called sparse superposition or sparse regression codes, has been proposed for communication over the AWGN channel. It has been proven that they achieve capacity using power allocation and various forms of…
We study ensembles of codes on graphs (generalized low-density parity-check, or LDPC codes) constructed from random graphs and fixed local constrained codes, and their extension to codes on hypergraphs. It is known that the average minimum…
We study the problem of high-dimensional multiple packing in Euclidean space. Multiple packing is a natural generalization of sphere packing and is defined as follows. Let $ N>0 $ and $ L\in\mathbb{Z}_{\ge2} $. A multiple packing is a set…
