The edge removal problem studies the loss in network coding rates that results when a network communication edge is removed from a given network. It is known, for example, that in networks restricted to linear coding schemes and networks restricted to Abelian group codes, removing an edge e* with capacity Re* reduces the achievable rate on each source by no more than Re*. In this work, we seek to uncover larger families of encoding functions for which the edge removal statement holds. We take a local perspective: instead of requiring that all network encoding functions satisfy certain restrictions (e.g., linearity), we limit only the function carried on the removed edge e*. Our central results give sufficient conditions on the function carried by edge e* in the code used to achieve a particular rate vector under which we can demonstrate the achievability of a related rate vector once e* is removed.

The edge-removal problem asks whether the removal of a $lambda$-capacity edge from a given network can decrease the communication rate between source-terminal pairs by more than $lambda$. In this short manuscript, we prove that for undirected network s, removing a $lambda$-capacity edge decreases the rate by $O(lambda)$. Through previously known reductive arguments, here newly applied to undirected networks, our result implies that the zero-error capacity region of an undirected network equals its vanishing-error capacity region. Whether it is possible to prove similar results for directed networks remains an open question.
This paper explores the relationship between two ideas in network information theory: edge removal and strong converses. Edge removal properties state that if an edge of small capacity is removed from a network, the capacity region does not change to o much. Strong converses state that, for rates outside the capacity region, the probability of error converges to 1 as the blocklength goes to infinity. Various notions of edge removal and strong converse are defined, depending on how edge capacity and error probability scale with blocklength, and relations between them are proved. Each class of strong converse implies a specific class of edge removal. The opposite directions are proved for deterministic networks. Furthermore, a technique based on a novel, causal version of the blowing-up lemma is used to prove that for discrete memoryless networks, the weak edge removal property--that the capacity region changes continuously as the capacity of an edge vanishes--is equivalent to the exponentially strong converse--that outside the capacity region, the probability of error goes to 1 exponentially fast. This result is used to prove exponentially strong converses for several examples, including the discrete 2-user interference channel with strong interference, with only a small variation from traditional weak converse proofs.
In this paper, we study the effect of a single link on the capacity of a network of error-free bit pipes. More precisely, we study the change in network capacity that results when we remove a single link of capacity $delta$. In a recent result, we pr oved that if all the sources are directly available to a single super-source node, then removing a link of capacity $delta$ cannot change the capacity region of the network by more than $delta$ in each dimension. In this paper, we extend this result to the case of multi-source, multi-sink networks for some special network topologies.
We study the performance of cognitive Underlay System (US) that employ power control mechanism at the Secondary Transmitter (ST) from a deployment perspective. Existing baseline models considered for performance analysis either assume the knowledge o f involved channels at the ST or retrieve this information by means of a band manager or a feedback channel, however, such situations rarely exist in practice. Motivated by this fact, we propose a novel approach that incorporates estimation of the involved channels at the ST, in order to characterize the performance of the US in terms of interference power received at the primary receiver and throughput at the secondary receiver (or textit{secondary throughput}). Moreover, we apply an outage constraint that captures the impact of imperfect channel knowledge, particularly on the uncertain interference. Besides this, we employ a transmit power constraint at the ST to classify the operation of the US in terms of an interference-limited regime and a power-limited regime. In addition, we characterize the expressions of the uncertain interference and the secondary throughput for the case where the involved channels encounter Nakagami-$m$ fading. Finally, we investigate a fundamental tradeoff between the estimation time and the secondary throughput depicting an optimized performance of the US.
This work is about the total variation (TV) minimization which is used for recovering gradient-sparse signals from compressed measurements. Recent studies indicate that TV minimization exhibits a phase transition behavior from failure to success as t he number of measurements increases. In fact, in large dimensions, TV minimization succeeds in recovering the gradient-sparse signal with high probability when the number of measurements exceeds a certain threshold; otherwise, it fails almost certainly. Obtaining a closed-form expression that approximates this threshold is a major challenge in this field and has not been appropriately addressed yet. In this work, we derive a tight lower-bound on this threshold in case of any random measurement matrix whose null space is distributed uniformly with respect to the Haar measure. In contrast to the conventional TV phase transition results that depend on the simple gradient-sparsity level, our bound is highly affected by generalized notions of gradient-sparsity. Our proposed bound is very close to the true phase transition of TV minimization confirmed by simulation results.
