Research In Information Theory
Selected papers on information theory from our journals and conferences
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
CSS-T codes are a class of stabilizer codes introduced by Rengaswamy et al with desired properties for quantum fault-tolerance. In this work, we comprehensively study non-degenerate CSS-T codes built from Reed-Muller codes. These classical codes allow for constructing optimal CSS-T code families with nonvanishing asymptotic rates up to 12 and possibly diverging minimum distance when non-degenerate.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
We propose a new systematic construction of CSS-T codes from any given CSS code using a map Ï•. When Ï• is the identity map I, we retrieve the construction of hu2021mitigating and use it to prove the existence of asymptotically good binary CSS-T codes, resolving a previously open problem in the literature, and of asymptotically good quantum LDPC CSS-T codes.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
In this paper, we introduce the Union-Intersection Union-Find (UIUF) algorithm for decoding depolarizing errors in topological codes, combining the strengths of iterative and standard Union-Find (UF) decoding. While iterative UF improves performance at moderate error rates, it lacks an error correction guarantee. To address this, we develop UIUF, which maintains the enhanced performance of iterative UF while ensuring error correction up to half the code distance.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
We introduce a new erasure decoder that applies to arbitrary quantum LDPC codes. Dubbed the cluster decoder, it generalizes the decomposition idea of Vertical-Horizontal (VH) decoding introduced by Connolly et al. in 2022. Like the VH decoder, the idea is to first run the peeling decoder and then post-process the resulting stopping set. The cluster decoder breaks the stopping set into a tree of clusters, which can be solved sequentially via Gaussian Elimination.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
Antenna efficiency is a key parameter in the design of large-scale dense arrays, and influences the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of wireless communications. Low embedded element efficiency (EEE) has been verified to be the bottleneck of dense array MIMO systems. Using ideas from the Floquet series, we propose a new framework to evaluate the mutual coupling for infinite arrays with a regular grid, including two new methods to calculate the EEE.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
Kitaev’s toric code is one of the most prominent models for fault-tolerant quantum computation, currently regarded as the leading solution for connectivity constrained quantum technologies. Significant effort has been recently devoted to improving the error correction performance of the toric code under message-passing decoding, a class of low-complexity, iterative decoding algorithms that play a central role in both theory and practice of classical low-density parity-check codes.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
This paper presents a comprehensive framework for holographic multiantenna communication, a paradigm that integrates both wide apertures and closely spaced antennas relative to the wavelength. The presented framework is physically grounded, enabling information-theoretic analyses that inherently incorporate correlation and mutual coupling among the antennas. This establishes the combined effects of correlation and coupling on the information-theoretic performance limits across SNR levels.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
The non-local interactions in several quantum device architectures allow for the realization of more compact quantum encodings while retaining the same degree of protection against noise. Anticipating that short to medium-length codes will soon be realizable, it is important to construct stabilizer codes that, for a given code distance, admit fault-tolerant implementations of logical gates with the fewest number of physical qubits. To this aim, we construct three kinds of codes encoding a single logical qubit for distances up to 31.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
In a recently introduced coset guessing game, Alice plays against Bob and Charlie, aiming to meet a joint winning condition. Bob and Charlie can only communicate before the game starts to devise a joint strategy. The game we consider begins with Alice preparing a 2m-qubit quantum state based on a random selection of three parameters. She sends the first m qubits to Bob and the rest to Charlie, and then reveals to them her choice for one of the parameters.
Â鶹´«Ã½AV JSAIT on the Information Theory Magazine
Locally recoverable codes (LRCs) with locality parameter r can recover any erased code symbol by accessing r other code symbols. This local recovery property is of great interest in large-scale distributed classical data storage systems as it leads to efficient repair of failed nodes. A well-known class of optimal (classical) LRCs are subcodes of Reed-Solomon codes constructed using a special type of polynomials called good polynomials.
