Several security models of multiple-access channel (MAC) are investigated. First, we study the degraded MAC with confidential messages, where two users transmit their confidential messages (no common message) to a destination, and each user…

We consider the problem of authenticated communication over a discrete arbitrarily varying channel where the legitimate parties are unaware of whether or not an adversary is present. When there is no adversary, the channel state always…

We consider the problem of communication over a network containing a hidden and malicious adversary that can control a subset of network resources, and aims to disrupt communications. We focus on omniscient node-based adversaries, i.e., the…

We study the problem of communication over a discrete arbitrarily varying channel (AVC) when a noisy version of the state is known non-causally at the encoder. The state is chosen by an adversary which knows the coding scheme. A…

This work considers the multiple-access multicast error-correction scenario over a packetized network with $z$ malicious edge adversaries. The network has min-cut $m$ and packets of length $\ell$, and each sink demands all information from…

A two-user discrete memoryless compound multiple access channel with a common message and conferencing decoders is considered. The capacity region is characterized in the special cases of physically degraded channels and unidirectional…

We study a special case of Willems's two-user multi-access channel with partially cooperating encoders from a security perspective. This model differs from Willems's setup in that only one encoder, Encoder 1, is allowed to conference;…

Adder MAC is a simple noiseless multiple-access channel (MAC), where if users send messages $X_1,\ldots,X_h\in \{0,1\}^n$, then the receiver receives $Y = X_1+\cdots+X_h$ with addition over $\mathbb{Z}$. Communication over the noiseless…

In this work we consider the communication of information in the presence of a causal adversarial jammer. In the setting under study, a sender wishes to communicate a message to a receiver by transmitting a codeword $(x_1,...,x_n)$…

A class of cognitive interference channel with state is investigated, in which two transmitters (transmitters 1 and 2) communicate with two receivers (receivers 1 and 2) over an interference channel. The two transmitters jointly transmit a…

The two-user discrete memoryless state-dependent multiple-access channel (MAC) models a scenario in which two encoders transmit independent messages to a single receiver via a MAC whose channel law is governed by the pair of encoders'…
