We study the capacity of discrete memoryless many-to-one interference channels, i.e., K user interference channels where only one receiver faces interference. For a class of many-to-one interference channels, we identify a noisy…

This paper considers the input-constrained binary memoryless symmetric (BMS) channel, without feedback. The channel input sequence respects the $(d,\infty)$-runlength limited (RLL) constraint, which mandates that any pair of successive $1$s…
The decoding error probability of codes is studied as a function of their block length. It is shown that the existence of codes with a polynomially small decoding error probability implies the existence of codes with an exponentially small…
This paper is focused on the performance analysis of binary linear block codes (or ensembles) whose transmission takes place over independent and memoryless parallel channels. New upper bounds on the maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding error…
A pruned variant of polar coding is reinvented for all binary erasure channels. For small $\varepsilon>0$, we construct codes with block length $\varepsilon^{-5}$, code rate $\text{Capacity}-\varepsilon$, error probability $\varepsilon$,…
We introduce and explicitly construct a quantum code we coin a "Pauli Manipulation Detection" code (or PMD), which detects every Pauli error with high probability. We apply them to construct the first near-optimal codes for two tasks in…
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…
The min-sum approximation is widely used in the decoding of polar codes. Although it is a numerical approximation, hardly any penalties are incurred in practice. We give a theoretical justification for this. We consider the common case of a…
