Distributed Arithmetic Coding (DAC) proves to be an effective implementation of Slepian-Wolf Coding (SWC), especially for short data blocks. To study the property of DAC codewords, the author has proposed the concept of DAC codeword…
A subset $\mathcal{C}\subseteq\{0,1,2\}^n$ is said to be a $\textit{trifferent}$ code (of block length $n$) if for every three distinct codewords $x,y, z \in \mathcal{C}$, there is a coordinate $i\in \{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ where they all differ,…
A binary code Enc$:\{0,1\}^k \to \{0,1\}^n$ is $(0.5-\epsilon,L)$-list decodable if for all $w \in \{0,1\}^n$, the set List$(w)$ of all messages $m \in \{0,1\}^k$ such that the relative Hamming distance between Enc$(m)$ and $w$ is at most…
Codebooks with small inner-product correlation are applied in many practical applications including direct spread code division multiple access (CDMA) communications, space-time codes and compressed sensing. It is extremely difficult to…
The problem of compression in standard information theory consists of assigning codes as short as possible to numbers. Here we consider the problem of optimal coding -- under an arbitrary coding scheme -- and show that it predicts Zipf's…
The decoding error probability of codes is studied as a function of their block length. It is shown that the existence of codes with a polynomially small decoding error probability implies the existence of codes with an exponentially small…
flip is an extremely simple and maximally local classical decoder which has been used to great effect in certain classes of classical codes. When applied to quantum codes there exist constant-weight errors (such as half of a stabiliser)…
For a given independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) source, Huffman code achieves the optimal average codeword length in the class of instantaneous code with a single code table. However, it is known that there exist time-variant…
New bounds on classification error rates for the error-correcting output code (ECOC) approach in machine learning are presented. These bounds have exponential decay complexity with respect to codeword length and theoretically validate the…
We construct families of high performance quantum amplitude damping codes. All of our codes are nonadditive and most modestly outperform the best possible additive codes in terms of encoded dimension. One family is built from nonlinear…
A k-query Locally Decodable Code (LDC) encodes an n-bit message x as an N-bit codeword C(x), such that one can probabilistically recover any bit x_i of the message by querying only k bits of the codeword C(x), even after some constant…
An index of uniformity is developed as an alternative to the maximum-entropy principle for selecting continuous, differentiable probability distributions $\mathcal{P}$ subject to constraints $C$. The uniformity index developed in this paper…
Constraint "at most one" is a basic cardinality constraint which requires that at most one of its $n$ boolean inputs is set to $1$. This constraint is widely used when translating a problem into a conjunctive normal form (CNF) and we…
This paper describes universal lossless coding strategies for compressing sources on countably infinite alphabets. Classes of memoryless sources defined by an envelope condition on the marginal distribution provide benchmarks for coding…
We introduce a novel type of quantum error correcting code, called the spinor code, based on spaces defined by total spin. The code is a nonstabilizer code, and is also a nonlinear quantum error correcting code, meaning that quantum…
We simply construct a quantum universal variable-length source code in which, independent of information source, both of the average error and the probability that the coding rate is greater than the entropy rate $H(rho_p)$, tend to 0. If…
This paper discusses the relationship between two frameworks: universal composability (UC) and robust compilation (RC). In cryptography, UC is a framework for the specification and analysis of cryptographic protocols with a strong…
Let $P = \{p(i)\}$ be a measure of strictly positive probabilities on the set of nonnegative integers. Although the countable number of inputs prevents usage of the Huffman algorithm, there are nontrivial $P$ for which known methods find a…
Optimal prefix codes are studied for pairs of independent, integer-valued symbols emitted by a source with a geometric probability distribution of parameter $q$, $0{<}q{<}1$. By encoding pairs of symbols, it is possible to reduce the…
A quantum error-correcting code is defined to be a unitary mapping (encoding) of k qubits (2-state quantum systems) into a subspace of the quantum state space of n qubits such that if any t of the qubits undergo arbitrary decoherence, not…
