We show that the capacity of the Ising perceptron is with high probability upper bounded by the constant $\alpha_\star \approx 0.833$ conjectured by Krauth and M\'ezard, under the condition that an explicit two-variable function…
We consider the Ising perceptron with gaussian disorder, which is equivalent to the discrete cube $\{-1,+1\}^N$ intersected by $M$ random half-spaces. The perceptron's capacity is $\alpha_N \equiv M_N/N$ for the largest integer $M_N$ such…
We study the statistical capacity of the classical binary perceptrons with general thresholds $\kappa$. After recognizing the connection between the capacity and the bilinearly indexed (bli) random processes, we utilize a recent progress in…
We study the problem of determining the capacity of the binary perceptron for two variants of the problem where the corresponding constraint is symmetric. We call these variants the rectangle-binary-perceptron (RPB) and the…
In 1974, Witsenhausen asked for the maximum possible density $\alpha_n$ of a measurable subset $A$ of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $A$ contains no pair of orthogonal vectors. For $n=3$, the best known…
Upper and lower bounds for the typical storage capacity of a constructive algorithm, the Tilinglike Learning Algorithm for the Parity Machine [M. Biehl and M. Opper, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 44} 6888 (1991)], are determined in the asymptotic limit…
We calculate the storage capacity of a perceptron for correlated gaussian patterns. We find that the storage capacity $\alpha_c$ can be less than 2 if similar patterns are mapped onto different outputs and vice versa. As long as the…
A new lower bound on the error probability of maximum likelihood decoding of a binary code on a binary symmetric channel was proved in Barg and McGregor (2004, cs.IT/0407011). It was observed in that paper that this bound leads to a new…
While currently the $abc$ conjecture and work towards it remains open or is disputed, at the same time much work has been done on weaker versions, as well as on its generalisation to number fields. Given integers satisfying $a+b=c$, Stewart…
It has been known for a long time that the classical spherical perceptrons can be used as storage memories. Seminal work of Gardner, \cite{Gar88}, started an analytical study of perceptrons storage abilities. Many of the Gardner's…
We prove that there exist infinitely many coprime numbers $a$, $b$, $c$ with $a+b=c$ and $c>\operatorname{rad}(abc)\exp(6.563\sqrt{\log c}/\log\log c)$. These are the most extremal examples currently known in the $abc$ conjecture, thereby…
This paper slightly improves the upper bound in Thangaraj et al. for the capacity of the amplitude-constrained scalar AWGN channel. This improvement makes the upper bound within 0.002 bits of the capacity for $\frac{E_b}{N_0}\leq 2.5$ dB.
This paper considers a binary channel with deletions. We derive two close form upper bound on the capacity of binary deletion channel. The first upper bound is based on computing the capacity of an auxiliary channel and we show how the…
We consider a standard two-source model for uniform common randomness (UCR) generation, in which Alice and Bob observe independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) samples of a correlated finite source and where Alice is allowed to send…
The performance of large neural networks can be judged not only by their storage capacity but also by the time required for learning. A polynomial learning algorithm with learning time $\sim N^2$ in a network with $N$ units might be…
We address the maximum attainable rate of fingerprinting codes under the marking assumption, studying lower and upper bounds on the value of the rate for various sizes of the attacker coalition. Lower bounds are obtained by considering…
We constrain the spectrum of two-dimensional unitary, compact conformal field theories with central charge c > 1 using modular bootstrap. Upper bounds on the gap in the dimension of primary operators of any spin, as well as in the dimension…
We derive an upper bound on the capacity of non-binary deletion channels. Although binary deletion channels have received significant attention over the years, and many upper and lower bounds on their capacity have been derived, such…
Let $A^2(D)$ be the Bergman space over the open unit disk $D$ in the complex plane. Korenblum conjectured that there is an absolute constant $c \in (0,1)$ such that whenever $|f(z)|\le |g(z)|$ in the annulus $c<|z|<1$ then $||f(z)|| \le…
We develop bounds on the capacity of Poisson-repeat channels (PRCs) for which each input bit is independently repeated according to a Poisson distribution. The upper bounds are obtained by considering an auxiliary channel where the output…
