In this paper, we consider the so-called uniquely decodable one-to-one code (UDOOC) that is formed by inserting a "comma" indicator, termed the unique word (UW), between consecutive one-to-one codewords for separation. Along this research…
We consider a variable-length source coding problem subject to local decodability constraints. In particular, we investigate the blocklength scaling behavior attainable by encodings of $r$-sparse binary sequences, under the constraint that…
A simple construction of quaternary hermitian self-orthogonal codes with parameters $[2n+1,k+1]$ and $[2n+2,k+2]$ from a given pair of self-orthogonal $[n,k]$ codes, and its link to quantum codes is considered. As an application, an optimal…

A $(k+r,k,l)$ binary array code of length $k+r$, dimension $k$, and sub-packetization $l$ is composed of $l\times(k+r)$ matrices over $\mathbb{F}_2$, with every column of the matrix stored on a separate node in the distributed storage…

A triply even code is a binary linear code in which the weight of every codeword is divisible by 8. We show how two doubly even codes of lengths m_1 and m_2 can be combined to make a triply even code of length m_1+m_2, and then prove that…
We consider ensembles of channel codes that are partitioned into bins, and focus on analysis of exact random coding error exponents associated with optimum decoding of the index of the bin to which the transmitted codeword belongs. Two main…

We investigate inference of variable-length codes in other domains of computer science, such as noisy information transmission or information retrieval-storage: in such topics, traditionally mostly constant-length codewords act. The study…
We first establish a simple yet powerful necessary and sufficient condition for a binary linear code to be SO, leading to a complete characterization of singly-even codes in this family. We further derive necessary and sufficient conditions…
In this work, we investigate a challenging problem, which has been considered to be an important criterion in designing codewords for DNA computing purposes, namely secondary structure avoidance in single-stranded DNA molecules. In short,…
A lower time bound $\Omega(\min(\nu(x), n-\nu(x))$ for counting the number of ones in a binary input word $x$ of length $n$ is presented, where $\nu(x)$ is the number of ones. The operations available are increment, decrement, bit-wise…
