In order to communicate a message over a noisy channel, a sender (Alice) uses an error-correcting code to encode her message $x$ into a codeword. The receiver (Bob) decodes it correctly whenever there is at most a small constant fraction of…
When digital data are transmitted over a noisy channel, it is important to have a mechanism allowing recovery against a limited number of errors. Normally, a user string of 0's and 1's, called bits, is encoded by adding a number of…
We show that in the document exchange problem, where Alice holds $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ and Bob holds $y \in \{0,1\}^n$, Alice can send Bob a message of size $O(K(\log^2 K+\log n))$ bits such that Bob can recover $x$ using the message and his…
Document exchange and error correcting codes are two fundamental problems regarding communications. In the first problem, Alice and Bob each holds a string, and the goal is for Alice to send a short sketch to Bob, so that Bob can recover…
Spread codes and orbit codes are special families of constant dimension subspace codes. These codes have been well-studied for their error correction capability and transmission rate, but the question of how to encode messages has not been…
We consider the \emph{functional index coding problem} over an error-free broadcast network in which a source generates a set of messages and there are multiple receivers, each holding a set of functions of source messages in its cache,…
This paper discusses a stylized communications problem where one wishes to transmit a real-valued signal x in R^n (a block of n pieces of information) to a remote receiver. We ask whether it is possible to transmit this information reliably…
Error correction code (ECC) is an integral part of the physical communication layer, ensuring reliable data transfer over noisy channels. Recently, neural decoders have demonstrated their advantage over classical decoding techniques.…
In the setting of error-correcting codes with feedback, Alice wishes to communicate a $k$-bit message $x$ to Bob by sending a sequence of bits over a channel while noiselessly receiving feedback from Bob. It has been long known (Berlekamp,…
The problem of secure multiterminal source coding with side information at the eavesdropper is investigated. This scenario consists of a main encoder (referred to as Alice) that wishes to compress a single source but simultaneously…
We investigate dense coding by imposing various locality restrictions to our decoder by employing the resource theory of asymmetry framework. In this task, the sender Alice and the receiver Bob share an entangled state. She encodes the…

The network communication scenario where one or more receivers request all the information transmitted by different sources is considered. We introduce distributed polynomial-time network codes in the presence of malicious nodes. Our codes…
Motivated by modern network communication applications which require low latency, we study codes that correct erasures with low decoding delay. We provide a simple explicit construction that yields convolutional codes that can correct both…
We consider a broadcast channel with a degraded message set, in which a single transmitter sends a common message to two receivers and a private message to one of the receivers only. The main goal of this work is to find new lower bounds to…
The problem of error-control in random linear network coding is considered. A ``noncoherent'' or ``channel oblivious'' model is assumed where neither transmitter nor receiver is assumed to have knowledge of the channel transfer…
Quantum error correction (QEC) is essential for scalable quantum computing. However, it requires classical decoders that are fast and accurate enough to keep pace with quantum hardware. While quantum low-density parity-check codes have…
We consider a setup in which the channel from Alice to Bob is less noisy than the channel from Eve to Bob. We show that there exist encoding and decoding which accomplish error correction and authentication simultaneously; that is, Bob is…
Function-Correcting Codes (FCCs) enable reliable computation of a function of a $k$-bit message over noisy channels without requiring full message recovery. In this work, we study optimal single-error correcting FCCs (SEFCCs) for…
This paper considers the classical error correcting problem which is frequently discussed in coding theory. We wish to recover an input vector $f \in \R^n$ from corrupted measurements $y = A f + e$. Here, $A$ is an $m$ by $n$ (coding)…
