It is shown that polar coding schemes achieve the known achievable rate regions for several multi-terminal communications problems including lossy distributed source coding, multiple access channels and multiple descriptions coding. The…
We say that a $q$-ary length $n$ code is \emph{non-overlapping} if the set of non-trivial prefixes of codewords and the set of non-trivial suffices of codewords are disjoint. These codes were first studied by Levenshtein in 1964, motivated…
In modern data storage systems, non-binary LDPC codes for recovering from disk failures are increasingly considered strong competitors to MDS codes such as Reed-Solomon codes. Since disk failures can be modeled as erasures, we analyze…
In this paper, we give a first negative answer to a question proposed by Li and Lin (Arch Ration Mech Anal 203(3): 943-968, 2012). Meanwhile we also give a second positive answer to the Li-Lin's open problem. The first positive answer was…
We define and analyze low-rank parity-check (LRPC) codes over extension rings of the finite chain ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p^r}$, where $p$ is a prime and $r$ is a positive integer. LRPC codes have originally been proposed by Gaborit et al.(2013)…
We discuss two conjectures. (I) For each x_1,...,x_n \in R (C) there exist y_1,...,y_n \in R (C) such that \forall i \in {1,...,n} |y_i| \leq 2^{2^{n-2}} \forall i \in {1,...,n} (x_i=1 \Rightarrow y_i=1) \forall i,j,k \in {1,...,n}…
The performance of two pivoting algorithms, due to Lemke and Cottle and Dantzig, is studied on linear complementarity problems (LCPs) that arise from infinite games, such as parity, average-reward, and discounted games. The algorithms have…
The intersection problem for additive (extended and non-extended) perfect codes, i.e. which are the possibilities for the number of codewords in the intersection of two additive codes C1 and C2 of the same length, is investigated. Lower and…
In this paper, we first introduce the notion of generalized pair weights of an $[n, k]$-linear code over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and the notion of pair $r$-equiweight codes, where $1\le r\le k-1$. Some basic properties of…
To find the non-standard binary Golay complementary sequences (GCSs) of length $2^{m}$ or theoretically prove the nonexistence of them are still open. Since it has been shown that all the standard $q$-ary (where $q$ is even) GCSs of length…
This paper is concerned with linear superposition systems in which all components of the superimposed signal are coded with an identical binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) code.
Locally checkable labeling problems (LCLs) form the foundation of the modern theory of distributed graph algorithms. First introduced in the seminal paper by Naor and Stockmeyer [STOC 1993], these are graph problems that can be described by…
We extend the Coupon Collector's Problem (CCP) and present a novel generalized model, referred as the k-LCCP problem, where one is interested in recovering a bipartite graph with a perfect matching, which represents the coupons and their…
We study a new class of codes over Z_2 x Z_2 which we call L-codes. They arise as a natural fifth step in a series of analogies between Kleinian codes, binary codes, lattices and vertex operator algebras. This analogy will be explained in…
LCD codes are linear codes with important cryptographic applications. Recently, a method has been presented to transform any linear code into an LCD code with the same parameters when it is supported on a finite field with cardinality…
Recently, minimal linear codes have been extensively studied due to their applications in secret sharing schemes, secure two-party computations, and so on. Constructing minimal linear codes violating the Ashikhmin-Barg condition and then…
We study additive quaternary codes whose parameters are close to those of the extended cyclic [12; 6; 6]4-code or to the quaternary linear codes generated by the elliptic quadric in PG(3; 4) or its dual. In particular we characterize those…
We study codes with parameters of $q$-ary shortened Hamming codes, i.e., $(n=(q^m-q)/(q-1), q^{n-m}, 3)_q$. Firstly, we prove the fact mentioned in 1998 by Brouwer et al. that such codes are optimal, generalizing it to a bound for multifold…
We address the problems of constructing quantum convolutional codes (QCCs) and of encoding them. The first construction is a CSS-type construction which allows us to find QCCs of rate 2/4. The second construction yields a quantum…
In this paper we generalize the notion of low-rank parity check (LRPC) codes by introducing a bilinear product over F^m q based on a generic 3-tensor in Fq^mxmxm, where Fq is the finite field with q elements. The generalized LRPC codes are…
