We present a family of additive quantum error-correcting codes whose capacities exceeds that of quantum random coding (hashing) for very noisy channels. These codes provide non-zero capacity in a depolarizing channel for fidelity parameters…

The quantum analog of the classical erasure channel provides a simple example of a channel whose asymptotic capacity for faithful transmission of intact quantum states, with and without the assistance of a two-way classical side channel,…

We consider the Shannon cipher system in a setting where the secret key is delivered to the legitimate receiver via a channel with limited capacity. For this setting, we characterize the achievable region in the space of three figures of…

We prove that, for all binary-input symmetric memoryless channels, polar codes enable reliable communication at rates within $\epsilon > 0$ of the Shannon capacity with a block length, construction complexity, and decoding complexity all…

Recently, a secrecy measure based on list-reconstruction has been proposed [2], in which a wiretapper is allowed to produce a list of $2^{mR_{L}}$ reconstruction sequences and the secrecy is measured by the minimum distortion over the…

We consider the problem of error control in a coded, multicast network, focusing on the scenario where the errors can occur only on a proper subset of the network edges. We model this problem via an adversarial noise, presenting a formal…
