We introduce multivariate multicycle (MM) codes, a new family of quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) that unifies bivariate bicycle, multivariate bicycle, abelian two-block group algebra, generalized bicycle, trivariate tricycle, and…
Symmetries in discrete constraint satisfaction problems have been explored and exploited in the last years, but symmetries in continuous constraint problems have not received the same attention. Here we focus on permutations of the…
We propose the first non-trivial generic decoding algorithm for codes in the sum-rank metric. The new method combines ideas of well-known generic decoders in the Hamming and rank metric. For the same code parameters and number of errors,…
In this paper we develop combinatorial techniques for the case of string algebras with the aim to give a characterization of string complexes with infinite minimal projective resolution. These complexes will be called \textit{periodic…
Bryant, Horsley, Maenhaut and Smith recently gave necessary and sufficient conditions for when the complete multigraph can be decomposed into cycles of specified lengths $m_1,m_2,\ldots,m_\tau$. In this paper we characterise exactly when…
We adress the problem of the algebraic decoding of any cyclic code up to the true minimum distance. For this, we use the classical formulation of the problem, which is to find the error locator polynomial in terms of the syndroms of the…
In this paper we give an explicit construction of a capacity achieving family of binary t-write WOM codes for any number of writes t, that have a polynomial time encoding and decoding algorithms. The block length of our construction is…
In this paper we study spread codes: a family of constant-dimension codes for random linear network coding. In other words, the codewords are full-rank matrices of size (k x n) with entries in a finite field F_q. Spread codes are a family…
Subspace codes and particularly constant dimension codes have attracted much attention in recent years due to their applications in random network coding. As a particular subclass of subspace codes, cyclic subspace codes have additional…
We present a polynomial time algorithm, which solves a nonstandard Variation of the well-known PARTITION-problem: Given positive integers $n, k$ and $t$ such that $t \geq n$ and $k \cdot t = {n+1 \choose 2}$, the algorithm partitions the…
Consider a large database of $n$ data items that need to be stored using $m$ servers. We study how to encode information so that a large number $k$ of read requests can be performed in parallel while the rate remains constant (and ideally…
We give a polynomial time algorithm to decode multivariate polynomial codes of degree $d$ up to half their minimum distance, when the evaluation points are an arbitrary product set $S^m$, for every $d < |S|$. Previously known algorithms can…
Consider a data set collected by (individuals-features) pairs in different times. It can be represented as a tensor of three dimensions (Individuals, features and times). The tensor biclustering problem computes a subset of individuals and…
The graph of overlapping permutations is a directed graph that is an analogue to the De Bruijn graph. It consists of vertices that are permutations of length $n$ and edges that are permutations of length $n+1$ in which an edge $a_1\cdots…
A universal word (u-word) for $d$-dimensional permutations of length $n$ is a 2-dimensional word with $d-1$ rows, any size $n$ window of which is order-isomorphic to exactly one permutation of length $n$, and all permutations of length $n$…
A method for encoding and decoding spectrum shaped binary run-length constrained sequences is described. The binary sequences with predefined range of exponential sums are introduced. On the base of Cover's enumerative scheme, recurrence…
The problem of reconstructing strings from their substring spectra has a long history and in its most simple incarnation asks for determining under which conditions the spectrum uniquely determines the string. We study the problem of coded…
We study certain supersymmetry breaking deformations of linear dilaton backgrounds in different dimensions. In some cases, the deformed theory has bulk closed strings tachyons. In other cases there are no bulk tachyons, but there are…
We introduce a variant of de Bruijn words that we call perfect necklaces. Fix a finite alphabet. Recall that a word is a finite sequence of symbols in the alphabet and a circular word, or necklace, is the equivalence class of a word under…
We investigate permutations in terms of their cycle structure and descent set. To do this, we generalize the classical bijection of Gessel and Reutenauer to deal with permutations that have some ascending and some descending blocks. We then…
