We study list-decoding over adversarial channels governed by oblivious adversaries (a.k.a. oblivious Arbitrarily Varying Channels (AVCs)). This type of adversaries aims to maliciously corrupt the communication without knowing the actual…
In this work, we study two models of arbitrarily varying channels, when causal side information is available at the encoder in a causal manner. First, we study the arbitrarily varying channel (AVC) with input and state constraints, when the…
Several communication models that are of relevance in practice are asymmetric in the way they act on the transmitted "objects". Examples include channels in which the amplitudes of the transmitted pulses can only be decreased, channels in…
For every p in (0,1/2), we give an explicit construction of binary codes of rate approaching "capacity" 1-H(p) that enable reliable communication in the presence of worst-case additive errors}, caused by a channel oblivious to the codeword…
The secrecy capacity problems over the general arbitrarily varying wiretap channel (AVWC), with respect to the maximal decoding error probability and strong secrecy criterion, are considered, where the channel state sequence may be known or…
In this work, we study the arbitrarily varying broadcast channel (AVBC), when state information is available at the transmitter in a causal manner. We establish inner and outer bounds on both the random code capacity region and the…
A method is proposed, called channel polarization, to construct code sequences that achieve the symmetric capacity $I(W)$ of any given binary-input discrete memoryless channel (B-DMC) $W$. The symmetric capacity is the highest rate…
We put forth new models for universal channel coding. Unlike standard codes which are designed for a specific type of channel, our most general universal code makes communication resilient on every channel, provided the noise level is below…
The information bottleneck channel, also known as oblivious relaying, is a two-hop channel where a transmitter sends messages to a remote receiver via an intermediate relay node. A codeword sent by the transmitter passes through a discrete…
The information bottleneck channel (or the oblivious relay channel) concerns a channel coding setting where the decoder does not directly observe the channel output. Rather, the channel output is relayed to the decoder by an oblivious relay…
In digital systems such as fiber optical communications, the ratio between probability of errors of type $1\to 0$ and $0 \to 1$ can be large. Practically, one can assume that only one type of error can occur. These errors arecalled…
The construction of asymmetric error correcting codes is a topic that was studied extensively, however, the existing approach for code construction assumes that every codeword should tolerate $t$ asymmetric errors. Our main observation is…
Secure communication in a potentially malicious environment becomes more and more important. The arbitrarily varying wiretap channel (AVWC) provides information theoretical bounds on how much information can be exchanged even in the…
Channel polarization, originally proposed for binary-input channels, is generalized to arbitrary discrete memoryless channels. Specifically, it is shown that when the input alphabet size is a prime number, a similar construction to that for…
In an arbitrarily varying channel (AVC), the channel has a state which is under the control of an adversarial jammer and the corresponding capacities are often functions of the "power" constraints on the transmitter and jammer. In this…
The arbitrarily varying channel (AVC) is a channel model whose state is selected maliciously by an adversary. Fixed-blocklength coding assumes a worst-case bound on the adversary's capabilities, which leads to pessimistic results. This…
The interest in channel models in which the data is sent as an unordered set of binary strings has increased lately, due to emerging applications in DNA storage, among others. In this paper we analyze the minimal redundancy of binary codes…
This work investigates the fundamental limits of communication over a noisy discrete memoryless channel that wears out, in the sense of signal-dependent catastrophic failure. In particular, we consider a channel that starts as a memoryless…
Unambiguous unitary maps and unambiguous unitary quantum channels are introduced and some of their properties are derived. These properties ensure certain simple form for the measurements involved in realizing an unambiguous unitary quantum…
Finite blocklength and second-order (dispersion) results are presented for the arbitrarily-varying channel (AVC), a classical model wherein an adversary can transmit arbitrary signals into the channel. A novel finite blocklength…
