In this work we investigate the behavior of the minimal rate needed in order to guarantee a given probability that the distortion exceeds a prescribed threshold, at some fixed finite quantization block length. We show that the excess coding…
We consider the problem of covert communication with random slot selection over binary-input Discrete Memoryless Channels and Additive White Gaussian Noise channels, in which a transmitter attempts to reliably communicate with a legitimate…
The capacity under strong asynchronism was recently shown to be essentially unaffected by the imposed output sampling rate $\rho$ and decoding delay $d$---the elapsed time between when information is available at the transmitter and when it…
We derive a single-letter upper bound to the mismatched-decoding capacity for discrete memoryless channels. The bound is expressed as the mutual information of a transformation of the channel, such that a maximum-likelihood decoding error…
A minimax converse for the identification via channels is derived. By this converse, a general formula for the identification capacity, which coincides with the transmission capacity, is proved without the assumption of the strong converse…
The noisy permutation channel is a useful abstraction introduced by Makur for point-to-point communication networks and biological storage. While the asymptotic capacity results exist for this model, the characterization of the second-order…
This paper investigates the maximal secrecy rate over a wiretap channel subject to reliability and secrecy constraints at a given blocklength. New achievability and converse bounds are derived, which are shown to be tighter than existing…
We present a new recommendation setting for picking out two items from a given set to be highlighted to a user, based on contextual input. These two items are presented to a user who chooses one of them, possibly stochastically, with a bias…
In this work, a new lower bound for the maximal error probability of a two-user discrete memoryless (DM) multiple-access channel (MAC) is derived. This is the first bound of this type that explicitly imposes independence of the users' input…
We consider the adversarial linear contextual bandit setting, which allows for the loss functions associated with each of $K$ arms to change over time without restriction. Assuming the $d$-dimensional contexts are drawn from a fixed known…
We consider the discrete memoryless symmetric primitive relay channel, where, a source $X$ wants to send information to a destination $Y$ with the help of a relay $Z$ and the relay can communicate to the destination via an error-free…
We provide the first capacity approaching coding schemes that robustly simulate any interactive protocol over an adversarial channel that corrupts any $\epsilon$ fraction of the transmitted symbols. Our coding schemes achieve a…
In [8] (Nakagawa, et.al., IEEE Trans. IT, 2021), we investigated the convergence speed of the Arimoto-Blahut algorithm. In [8], the convergence of the order $O(1/N)$ was analyzed by focusing on the second-order nonlinear recurrence formula…
Motivated by a wide-spread use of convex optimization techniques, convexity properties of bit error rate of the maximum likelihood detector operating in the AWGN channel are studied for arbitrary constellations and bit mappings, which also…
For memoryless channels with continuous input alphabets, deterministic identification (DI) typically exhibits a linearithmic ($n\log n$) message growth. However, the exact DI capacity has long remained open due to a persistent gap between…
While the channel capacity reflects a theoretical upper bound on the achievable information transmission rate in the limit of infinitely many bits, it does not characterise the information transfer of a given encoding routine with finitely…
A channel coding achievability bound expressed in terms of the ratio between two Neyman-Pearson $\beta$ functions is proposed. This bound is the dual of a converse bound established earlier by Polyanskiy and Verd\'{u} (2014). The new bound…

In multi-user information theory it is often assumed that every node in the network possesses all codebooks used in the network. This assumption may be impractical in distributed ad-hoc, cognitive or heterogeneous networks. This work…
