In 2018, Renes [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, vol. 64, no. 1, pp. 577-592 (2018)] (arXiv:1701.05583) developed a general theory of channel duality for classical-input quantum-output (CQ) channels. That result showed that a number of well-known duality results for linear codes on the binary erasure channel could be extended to general classical channels at the expense of using dual problems which are intrinsically quantum mechanical. One special case of this duality is a connection between coding for error correction (resp. wire-tap secrecy) on the quantum pure-state channel (PSC) and coding for wire-tap secrecy (resp. error correction) on the classical binary symmetric channel (BSC). While this result has important implications for classical coding, the machinery behind the general duality result is rather challenging for researchers without a strong background in quantum information theory. In this work, we leverage prior results for linear codes on PSCs to give an alternate derivation of the aforementioned special case by computing closed-form expressions for the performance metrics. The noted prior results include optimality of the square-root measurement (SRM) for linear codes on the PSC and the Fourier duality of linear codes. We also show that the SRM forms a suboptimal measurement for channel coding on the BSC (when interpreted as a CQ problem) and secret communications on the PSC. Our proofs only require linear algebra and basic group theory, though we use the quantum Dirac notation for convenience.

In this article, we describe various aspects of categorification of the structures appearing in information theory. These aspects include probabilistic models both of classical and quantum physics, emergence of F-manifolds, and motivic enrichments.

We provide a practical implementation of the rubber method of Ahlswede et al. for binary alphabets. The idea is to create the skeleton sequence therein via an arithmetic decoder designed for a particular $k$-th order Markov chain. For the stochastic binary symmetric channel, we show that the scheme is nearly optimal in a strong sense for certain parameters.
A renowned information-theoretic formula by Shannon expresses the mutual information rate of a white Gaussian channel with a stationary Gaussian input as an integral of a simple function of the power spectral density of the channel input. We give in this paper a rigorous yet elementary proof of this classical formula. As opposed to all the conventional approaches, which either rely on heavy mathematical machineries or have to resort to some external results, our proof, which hinges on a recently proven sampling theorem, is elementary and self-contained, only using some well-known facts from basic calculus and matrix theory.
Building on the work of Horstein, Shayevitz and Feder, and Naghshvar emph{et al.}, this paper presents algorithms for low-complexity sequential transmission of a $k$-bit message over the binary symmetric channel (BSC) with full, noiseless feedback. T o lower complexity, this paper shows that the initial $k$ binary transmissions can be sent before any feedback is required and groups messages with equal posteriors to reduce the number of posterior updates from exponential in $k$ to linear in $k$. Simulation results demonstrate that achievable rates for this full, noiseless feedback system approach capacity rapidly as a function of average blocklength, faster than known finite-blocklength lower bounds on achievable rate with noiseless active feedback and significantly faster than finite-blocklength lower bounds for a stop feedback system.
Consider a binary linear code of length $N$, minimum distance $d_{text{min}}$, transmission over the binary erasure channel with parameter $0 < epsilon < 1$ or the binary symmetric channel with parameter $0 < epsilon < frac12$, and block-MAP decoding . It was shown by Tillich and Zemor that in this case the error probability of the block-MAP decoder transitions quickly from $delta$ to $1-delta$ for any $delta>0$ if the minimum distance is large. In particular the width of the transition is of order $O(1/sqrt{d_{text{min}}})$. We strengthen this result by showing that under suitable conditions on the weight distribution of the code, the transition width can be as small as $Theta(1/N^{frac12-kappa})$, for any $kappa>0$, even if the minimum distance of the code is not linear. This condition applies e.g., to Reed-Mueller codes. Since $Theta(1/N^{frac12})$ is the smallest transition possible for any code, we speak of almost optimal scaling. We emphasize that the width of the transition says nothing about the location of the transition. Therefore this result has no bearing on whether a code is capacity-achieving or not. As a second contribution, we present a new estimate on the derivative of the EXIT function, the proof of which is based on the Blowing-Up Lemma.
