We investigate the asymptotic rates of length-$n$ binary codes with VC-dimension at most $dn$ and minimum distance at least $delta n$. Two upper bounds are obtained, one as a simple corollary of a result by Haussler and the other via a shortening approach combining Sauer-Shelah lemma and the linear programming bound. Two lower bounds are given using Gilbert-Varshamov type arguments over constant-weight and Markov-type sets.

The $l$-th stopping redundancy $rho_l(mathcal C)$ of the binary $[n, k, d]$ code $mathcal C$, $1 le l le d$, is defined as the minimum number of rows in the parity-check matrix of $mathcal C$, such that the smallest stopping set is of size at least $
l$. The stopping redundancy $rho(mathcal C)$ is defined as $rho_d(mathcal C)$. In this work, we improve on the probabilistic analysis of stopping redundancy, proposed by Han, Siegel and Vardy, which yields the best bounds known today. In our approach, we judiciously select the first few rows in the parity-check matrix, and then continue with the probabilistic method. By using similar techniques, we improve also on the best known bounds on $rho_l(mathcal C)$, for $1 le l le d$. Our approach is compared to the existing methods by numerical computations.
We consider network coding for networks experiencing worst-case bit-flip errors, and argue that this is a reasonable model for highly dynamic wireless network transmissions. We demonstrate that in this setup prior network error-correcting schemes can
be arbitrarily far from achieving the optimal network throughput. We propose a new metric for errors under this model. Using this metric, we prove a new Hamming-type upper bound on the network capacity. We also show a commensurate lower bound based on GV-type codes that can be used for error-correction. The codes used to attain the lower bound are non-coherent (do not require prior knowledge of network topology). The end-to-end nature of our design enables our codes to be overlaid on classical distributed random linear network codes. Further, we free internal nodes from having to implement potentially computationally intensive link-by-link error-correction.
A new family of binary linear completely transitive (and, therefore, completely regular) codes is constructed. The covering radius of these codes is growing with the length of the code. In particular, for any integer r > 1, there exist two codes with
d=3, covering radius r and length 2r(4r-1) and (2r+1)(4r+1), respectively. These new completely transitive codes induce, as coset graphs, a family of distance-transitive graphs of growing diameter.
We show that Reed-Muller codes achieve capacity under maximum a posteriori bit decoding for transmission over the binary erasure channel for all rates $0 < R < 1$. The proof is generic and applies to other codes with sufficient amount of symmetry as
well. The main idea is to combine the following observations: (i) monotone functions experience a sharp threshold behavior, (ii) the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) functions are monotone, (iii) Reed--Muller codes are 2-transitive and thus the EXIT functions associated with their codeword bits are all equal, and (iv) therefore the Area Theorem for the average EXIT functions implies that RM codes threshold is at channel capacity.
We prove that, for the binary erasure channel (BEC), the polar-coding paradigm gives rise to codes that not only approach the Shannon limit but do so under the best possible scaling of their block length as a~function of the gap to capacity. This res
ult exhibits the first known family of binary codes that attain both optimal scaling and quasi-linear complexity of encoding and decoding. Our proof is based on the construction and analysis of binary polar codes with large kernels. When communicating reliably at rates within $varepsilon > 0$ of capacity, the code length $n$ often scales as $O(1/varepsilon^{mu})$, where the constant $mu$ is called the scaling exponent. It is known that the optimal scaling exponent is $mu=2$, and it is achieved by random linear codes. The scaling exponent of conventional polar codes (based on the $2times 2$ kernel) on the BEC is $mu=3.63$. This falls far short of the optimal scaling guaranteed by random codes. Our main contribution is a rigorous proof of the following result: for the BEC, there exist $elltimesell$ binary kernels, such that polar codes constructed from these kernels achieve scaling exponent $mu(ell)$ that tends to the optimal value of $2$ as $ell$ grows. We furthermore characterize precisely how large $ell$ needs to be as a function of the gap between $mu(ell)$ and $2$. The resulting binary codes maintain the recursive structure of conventional polar codes, and thereby achieve construction complexity $O(n)$ and encoding/decoding complexity $O(nlog n)$.
