We construct new stabilizer quantum error-correcting codes from generalized monomial-Cartesian codes. Our construction uses an explicitly defined twist vector, and we present formulas for the minimum distance and dimension. Generalized…

We prove several results on linear codes achieving list-recovery capacity. We show that random linear codes achieve list-recovery capacity with constant output list size (independent of the alphabet size and length). That is, over alphabets…

For most discrete memoryless channels, there does not exist a linear code for the channel which uses all of the channel's input symbols. Therefore, linearity of the code for such channels is a very restrictive condition and there should be…

In this work we consider a generalization of the well-studied problem of coding for ``stuck-at'' errors, which we refer to as ``strong stuck-at'' codes. In the traditional framework of stuck-at codes, the task involves encoding a message…

This paper studies the coherent and non-coherent multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) uplink system in the finite blocklength regime. The i.i.d. Gaussian codebook is assumed for each user. To be more specific, the BS first…
