The (two) core of a hypergraph is the maximal collection of hyperedges within which no vertex appears only once. It is of importance in tasks such as efficiently solving a large linear system over GF[2], or iterative decoding of low-density…
In this work, we consider adaptive linear programming (ALP) decoding of linear codes over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of size $p$ where $p$ is a prime. In particular, we provide a general construction of valid inequalities for the…
We investigate how small the Randi\'c index of a graph can be in terms of its matching number, and prove several results. We give best-possible linear bounds for graphs of small excess and for subcubic graphs; in the former case the size of…

Linearity and contiguity are two parameters devoted to graph encoding. Linearity is a generalisation of contiguity in the sense that every encoding achieving contiguity $k$ induces an encoding achieving linearity $k$, both encoding having…
In this paper, we study the information-theoretic converse for the index coding problem. We generalize the definition for the alignment chain, introduced by Maleki et al., to capture more flexible relations among interfering messages at…
One of the major open problems in machine learning is to characterize generalization in the overparameterized regime, where most traditional generalization bounds become inconsistent even for overparameterized linear regression. In many…
We consider the low rank matrix completion problem over finite fields. This problem has been extensively studied in the domain of real/complex numbers, however, to the best of authors' knowledge, there exists merely one efficient algorithm…
We consider Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) with pattern-based potentials defined on a chain. In this model the energy of a string (labeling) $x_1...x_n$ is the sum of terms over intervals $[i,j]$ where each term is non-zero only if the…
We establish a duality result between linear index coding and Locally Repairable Codes (LRCs). Specifically, we show that a natural extension of LRCs we call Generalized Locally Repairable Codes (GLCRs) are exactly dual to linear index…
