We derive the optimal exponent of the error probability of the quantum fixed-length pure state source coding in both cases of blind coding and visible coding. The optimal exponent is universally attained by Jozsa et al. (PRL, 81, 1714…
The index of codivisibility of a set of integers is the size of its largest subset with a common prime divisor. For large random samples of integers, the index of codivisibility is approximately normal.

This paper presents generalized channel coding theorems for a time-slotted distributed communication system where a transmitter-receiver pair is communicating in parallel with other transmitters. Assume that the channel code of each…
The Gini index is a number that attempts to measure how equitably a resource is distributed throughout a population, and is commonly used in economics as a measurement of inequality of wealth or income. The Gini index is often defined as…
Let $\chi$ be an irreducible character of a group $G.$ We denote the sum of the codegrees of the irreducible characters of $G$ by $S_c(G)=\sum_{\chi\in {\rm Irr}(G)}{\rm cod}(\chi).$ We consider the question if $S_c(G)\leq S_c(C_n)$ is true…
