We study the secure decentralized Pliable Index CODing (PICOD) problem with circular side information sets at the users. The security constraint forbids every user to decode more than one message while a decentralized setting means there is…

We characterize mixed-level orthogonal arrays in terms of algebraic designs in a special multigraph. We prove a mixed-level analog of the Bierbrauer-Friedman (BF) bound for pure-level orthogonal arrays and show that arrays attaining it are…
In this paper we consider two pointsets in $\mathrm{PG}(2,q^n)$ arising from a linear set $L$ of rank $n$ contained in a line of $\mathrm{PG}(2,q^n)$: the first one is a linear blocking set of R\'edei type, the second one extends the…
We give a complete description of the distance relation on the graph of $4$-ary simplex codes of dimension $2$. This is a connected graph of diameter $3$. For every vertex we determine the sets of all vertices at distance $i\in\{1,2,3\}$…
Polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes combine the polar and convolutional transformations to enhance the distance properties of polar codes. They offer a performance very close to the finite length information-theoretic bounds for…
