The paper introduces new bounds on the asymptotic density of parity-check matrices and the achievable rates under ML decoding of binary linear block codes transmitted over memoryless binary-input output-symmetric channels. The lower bounds…
It is well-known that observing nonlocal correlations allows us to draw conclusions about the quantum systems under consideration. In some cases this yields a characterisation which is essentially complete, a phenomenon known as…
Convex combinations of i.i.d. random variables without a finite mean can behave in a strikingly different way from the finite-mean case: as the weight vector becomes more balanced, the resulting combination may become stochastically larger,…
We study linear codes that maximize minimum distance subject to arbitrary support constraints on the parity-check matrix. Such constraints arise naturally in the design of LDPC codes, locally repairable codes, and hardware-constrained…

We expose a strong connection between good $2$-query locally testable codes (LTCs) and high dimensional expanders. Here, an LTC is called good if it has constant rate and linear distance. Our emphasis in this work is on LTCs testable with…
Certifiable local robustness, which rigorously precludes small-norm adversarial examples, has received significant attention as a means of addressing security concerns in deep learning. However, for some classification problems, local…
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…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The paper studies the problem of self-orthogonality and self-duality matrix-product codes (MPCs) over $R$. Some methods as well as special matrices are introduced for the construction of such…
The trapping redundancy of a linear code is the number of rows of a smallest parity-check matrix such that no submatrix forms an $(a,b)$-trapping set. This concept was first introduced in the context of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes…
We derive bounds on the asymptotic density of parity-check matrices and the achievable rates of binary linear block codes transmitted over memoryless binary-input output-symmetric (MBIOS) channels. The lower bounds on the density of…
Quantum low-density parity-check (QLDPC) codes with asymptotically non-zero rates are prominent candidates for achieving fault-tolerant quantum computation, primarily due to their syndrome-measurement circuit's low operational depth.…
Random coding arguments are the backbone of most channel capacity achievability proofs. In this paper, we show that in their standard form, such arguments are insufficient for proving some network capacity theorems: structured coding…
