Binary self-dual codes with large minimum distances, such as the extended Hamming code and the Golay code, are fascinating objects in the coding theory. They are closely related to sporadic simple groups, lattices and invariant theory. A…
Binary matrix codes with restricted row and column weights are a desirable method of coded modulation for power line communication. In this work, we construct such matrix codes that are obtained as products of affine codes - cosets of…
We construct multilevel lattice codes from multiquadratic number fields for the compound block-fading wiretap channel. More precisely, we specialize Construction $\pi_A$ over the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ and exploit rational primes…
Narain lattices are unimodular lattices {\it in} $\R^{r,s}$, subject to certain natural equivalence relation and rationality condition. The problem of describing and counting these rational equivalence classes of Narain lattices in…
We provide an algorithm to construct unitary matrices over finite fields. We present various constructions of Hermitian self-dual code by means of unitary matrices, where some of them generalize the quadratic double circulant constructions.…
Is gauge symmetry merely a redundancy in our description, or does it carry a deeper information-theoretic significance? Quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) show that redundancy can serve as a resource for protecting information against…
In this work we extend the connection between Quantum Error Correction (QEC) and Lattice Gauge Theories (LGTs) by showing that a $\mathbb{Z}_N$ gauge theory with prime dimension $N$ coupled to dynamical matter can be expressed as a qudit…
We develop a comprehensive framework for constructing quantum error correcting codes (QECCs) from Abelian lattice gauge theories (LGTs) using quantum reference frames (QRFs) as a unifying formalism. We consider LGTs with arbitrary compact…
Compactifications of the heterotic string on T^d are the simplest, yet rich enough playgrounds to uncover swampland ideas: the U(1)^{d+16} left-moving gauge symmetry gets enhanced at special points in moduli space only to certain groups. We…
We investigate the class of CSS-$T$ codes, a family of quantum error-correcting codes that allows for a transversal $T$-gate. We extend the definition of a pair of linear codes $(C_1,C_2)$, $C_i\subseteq\mathbb{F}_q^n$, forming a $q$-ary…
An account is given of the structure and representations of chiral bosonic meromorphic conformal field theories (CFT's), and, in particular, the conditions under which such a CFT may be extended by a representation to form a new theory.…
In recent work we have developed a new unfolding method for computing one-loop modular integrals in string theory involving the Narain partition function and, possibly, a weak almost holomorphic elliptic genus. Unlike the traditional…
In this paper, we discuss the simple current orbifold of a rational Narain CFT (Narain RCFT). This is a method of constructing other rational CFTs from a given rational CFT, by ``orbifolding'' the global symmetry formed by a particular…
This paper examines linear binary codes capable of correcting one or more errors. For the single-error-correcting case, it is shown that the Hamming bound is achieved by a constructive method, and an exact expression for the minimal…
In this paper we study compactifications of the ${\cal N}=2$ heterotic $E_8\times E_8$ string on $(K3\times T^2)/\mathbb{Z}_3$ with various gauge backgrounds and calculate the topological couplings in the effective supergravity action that…
The Narain lattice construction of string compactifications is generalized to include spontaneously broken supersymmetry. Consistency conditions from modular invariance and Lorentz symmetry are solved in full generality. This framework…
We construct two quantum error correction codes for pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the electric basis truncated at the electric flux $j_{\rm max}=1/2$, which are applicable on quasi-1D plaquette chains, 2D honeycomb and 3D triamond and…
Tests of duality between heterotic strings on $K3\times T^2$ (restricted on certain Narain moduli subspaces) and type IIA strings on K3-fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds are attempted in the weak coupling regime on the heterotic side by…
It is well known that the discrete analogue of a lattice is a linear code which is a vector subspace of Hamming space $\mathbb{F}^n$. The set $\mathbb{F}$ is a finite field and $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$. Our attempt is to construct a class of…
Based on the theoretical neuroscience, G. Cotardo and A. Ravagnavi in \cite{CR} introduced a kind of asymmetric binary codes called combinatorial neural codes (CN codes for short), with a "matched metric" $\delta_{r}$ called asymmetric…
