For two non-communicating parties, quantum theory can give rise to probability distributions of outcomes that no local classical model can reproduce without communication. However, in the case of two-dimensional systems ($d=2$), it is known…

Suppose Alice and Bob receive strings $X=(X_1,...,X_n)$ and $Y=(Y_1,...,Y_n)$ each uniformly random in $[s]^n$ but so that $X$ and $Y$ are correlated . For each symbol $i$, we have that $Y_i = X_i$ with probability $1-\eps$ and otherwise…

In this work, we examine the optimality of Gaussian signalling for covert communications with an upper bound on $\mathcal{D}(p_{_1}||p_{_0})$ or $\mathcal{D}(p_{_0}||p_{_1})$ as the covertness constraint, where $\mathcal{D}(p_{_1}||p_{_0})$…

Quantum teleportation is a quantum communication primitive that allows a long-distance quantum channel to be built using pre-shared entanglement and one-way classical communication. However, the quality of the established channel crucially…

In this paper we propose and study a class of nonparametric, yet interpretable measures of association between two random vectors $X$ and $Y$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}^{d_1}$ and $\mathbb{R}^{d_2}$ respectively ($d_1, d_2\ge 1$). These…

We aim to achieve keyless covert communication with a positive-rate in Rayleigh block-fading channels. Specifically, the transmitter and the legitimate receiver are assumed to have either causal or non-causal knowledge of the \ac{CSI} for…

Conformal prediction (CP) provides powerful, distribution-free prediction sets, but its guarantees rely on the exchangeability of training and test data, which is often violated in practice due to covariate shifts. While weighted conformal…

We propose a two-way secure-communication protocol in which Alice uses an amplified spontaneous emission source while Bob employs binary phase-shift keying and an optical amplifier. Against an eavesdropper who captures all the light lost in…

A non-regenerative dual-hop wireless system based on a distributed space-time coding strategy is considered. It is assumed that each relay retransmits an appropriately scaled space-time coded version of its received signal. The main goal of…

A coupling of two distributions $P_{X}$ and $P_{Y}$ is a joint distribution $P_{XY}$ with marginal distributions equal to $P_{X}$ and $P_{Y}$. Given marginals $P_{X}$ and $P_{Y}$ and a real-valued function $f$ of the joint distribution…
