Given a negative $D>-(\log X)^{\log 2-\delta}$, we give a new upper bound on the number of square free integers $<X$ which are represented by some but not all forms of the genus of a primitive positive definite binary quadratic form $f$ of…
In an error-correcting code, a sender encodes a message $x \in \{ 0, 1 \}^k$ such that it is still decodable by a receiver on the other end of a noisy channel. In the setting of \emph{error-correcting codes with feedback}, after sending…
The squashed entanglement is a widely used entanglement measure that has many desirable properties. However, as it is based on an optimization over extensions of arbitrary dimension, one drawback of this measure is the lack of good…
Subspace codes are the $q$-analog of binary block codes in the Hamming metric. Here the codewords are vector spaces over a finite field. They have e.g. applications in random linear network coding, distributed storage, and cryptography. In…
We consider codes over fixed alphabets against worst-case symbol deletions. For any fixed $k \ge 2$, we construct a family of codes over alphabet of size $k$ with positive rate, which allow efficient recovery from a worst-case deletion…
The length function $\ell_2(r,R)$ is the smallest length of a binary linear code with codimension (redundancy) $r$ and covering radius $R$. We obtain the following new upper bounds on $\ell_2(r,R)$, which yield a decrease $\Delta(r,R)$…
We develop a framework for approximation limits of polynomial-size linear programs from lower bounds on the nonnegative ranks of suitably defined matrices. This framework yields unconditional impossibility results that are applicable to any…
A permutation array(or code) of length $n$ and distance $d$, denoted by $(n,d)$ PA, is a set of permutations $C$ from some fixed set of $n$ elements such that the Hamming distance between distinct members $\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y}\in C$ is at…
We prove that in a metric measure space $X$, if for some $p \in (1,\infty)$ there are uniform bounds (independent of the measure) for the weak type $(p,p)$ of the centered maximal operator, then $X$ satisfies a certain geometric condition,…
A finite set X in a metric space M is called an s-distance set if the set of distances between any two distinct points of X has size s. The main problem for s-distance sets is to determine the maximum cardinality of s-distance sets for…
In this paper, codes with locality for four erasures are considered. An upper bound on the rate of codes with locality with sequential recovery from four erasures is derived. The rate bound derived here is field independent. An optimal…
We describe new lower bounds for randomized communication complexity and query complexity which we call the partition bounds. They are expressed as the optimum value of linear programs. For communication complexity we show that the…
In this paper new infinite families of linear binary completely transitive codes are presented. They have covering radius $\rho = 3$ and 4, and are a half part of the binary Hamming and the binary extended Hamming code of length $n=2^m-1$…
In this paper we obtain new lower bounds for the upper box dimension of $\alpha\beta$ sets. As a corollary of our main result, we show that if $\alpha$ is not a Liouville number and $\beta$ is a Liouville number, then the upper box…
We prove new upper bounds on the number of representations of rational numbers $\frac{m}{n}$ as a sum of $4$ unit fractions, giving five different regions, depending on the size of $m$ in terms of $n$. In particular, we improve the most…
We address the maximum attainable rate of fingerprinting codes under the marking assumption, studying lower and upper bounds on the value of the rate for various sizes of the attacker coalition. Lower bounds are obtained by considering…
We present novel bounds on the capacity of the independent and identically distributed binary deletion channel. Four upper bounds are obtained by providing the transmitter and the receiver with genie-aided information on suitably-defined…
In this book, the authors introduce the notion of set codes, set bicodes and set n-codes. These are the most generalized notions of semigroup n-codes and group n-codes. Several types of set n-codes are defined. Several examples are given to…
We provide a new upper bound on the number of conjugacy classes in the group $U_n(q)$ of unitriangular matrices over a finite field. We also compute a similar upper bound for every group in the lower central series of $U_n(q)$.
A complex Hilbert space of dimension six supports at least three but not more than seven mutually unbiased bases. Two computer-aided analytical methods to tighten these bounds are reviewed, based on a discretization of parameter space and…
