The prime numbers look like a randomly chosen sequence of natural numbers, but there is still no strict theory to determine 'Randomness'. In these years, cryptography has developed a battery of statistical tests for randomness. In this…
Coded computing is a distributed paradigm that uses coding theory to introduce \textit{redundancy} and overcome bottlenecks in large-scale systems. In the same vein, randomized numerical linear algebra employs probabilistic methods to…
We present a new approach to constructing of pseudo-random binary sequences (PRS) generators for the purpose of cryptographic data protection, secured from the perpetrator's attacks, caused by generation of masses of hardware errors and…
We compare ordinary and symmetric variants of two classical measures of pseudorandomness for binary sequences, the $2$-adic complexity and the linear complexity. In the periodic setting, we show that for binary periodic sequences…
Pseudo-geometric designs are combinatorial designs which share the same parameters as a finite geometry design, but which are not isomorphic to that design. As far as we know, many pseudo-geometric designs have been constructed by the…
The concepts of pseudocodeword and pseudoweight play a fundamental role in the finite-length analysis of LDPC codes. The pseudoredundancy of a binary linear code is defined as the minimum number of rows in a parity-check matrix such that…
We consider the hashing mechanism for constructing binary embeddings, that involves pseudo-random projections followed by nonlinear (sign function) mappings. The pseudo-random projection is described by a matrix, where not all entries are…
In this work, we study two types of constraints on two-dimensional binary arrays. In particular, given $p,\epsilon>0$, we study (i) The $p$-bounded constraint: a binary vector of size $m$ is said to be $p$-bounded if its weight is at most…
A sliding-window algorithm of window size $t$ is an algorithm whose current operation depends solely on the last $t$ symbols read. We construct pseudorandom generators (PRGs) for low-space randomized sliding-window algorithms that have…
A generic construction of linear codes over finite fields has recently received a lot of attention, and many one-weight, two-weight and three-weight codes with good error correcting capability have been produced with this generic approach.…
Dual graphs have been applied to model RNA secondary structures with pseudoknots, or intertwined base pairs. In previous works, a linear-time algorithm was introduced to partition dual graphs into maximally connected components called…
We discuss several two-dimensional generalizations of the familiar Lyndon-Schutzenberger periodicity theorem for words. We consider the notion of primitive array (as one that cannot be expressed as the repetition of smaller arrays). We…
Linear complexity is an important parameter for arrays that are used in applications related to information security. In this work we survey constructions of two and three dimensional arrays, and present new results on the multidimensional…
Let $1<g_1<\ldots<g_{\varphi(p-1)}<p-1$ be the ordered primitive roots modulo~$p$. We study the pseudorandomness of the binary sequence $(s_n)$ defined by $s_n\equiv g_{n+1}+g_{n+2}\bmod 2$, $n=0,1,\ldots$. In particular, we study the…
A cut-down de Bruijn sequence is a cyclic string of length $L$, where $1 \leq L \leq k^n$, such that every substring of length $n$ appears at most once. Etzion [Theor. Comp. Sci 44 (1986)] gives an algorithm to construct binary cut-down de…

In the problem of blind reconstruction of channel codes, the receiver does not have the knowledge of the channel code used at the transmitter and the aim is to identify this unknown channel code corresponding to the given received sequence.…
A numerical semigroup is a subset of the non-negative integers that is closed under addition. For a randomly generated numerical semigroup, the expected number of minimum generators can be expressed in terms of a doubly-indexed sequence of…
Be d_{m,n} a generic element in the infinite matrix D, with d_{1, n} defined as the n-th prime number and, for any m>1, d_{m, n} = | d_{m-1, n} - d_{m-1, n+1} | When n>1, after the first few terms the columns in the matrix appear to be…
