Abstract

DNA codes have garnered significant interest due to their utilization in digital media storage, cryptography, and DNA computing. In this paper, we first extend the results of constructing reversible group codes \cite{Cengellenmis} and reversible composite group codes \cite{Korban5} to general even-order finite groups. By using these results, we give parallel searching algorithms to find some new DNA codes with better parameters. Secondly, by mapping codes over $\mathbb{F}_4$ to DNA codes, we establish a relationship between the $GC$-weight enumerator of DNA codes and the Hamming weight enumerator of their trace codes, which greatly improves the computational efficiency of searching for DNA codes. Based on this relationship, we propose an efficient algorithm for generating DNA codes with $50\%$ $GC$-content. Furthermore, we find that there is no direct connection between the $GC$-weight enumerator of a DNA code and the $GC$-weight enumerator of its dual code. Finally, we present algorithms for determining whether a DNA code is free from secondary structures or conflict-free, and some new DNA codes with better parameters under multiple constraints are obtained, which are listed in Tables 1 and 4.

Fundamental Scaling Laws of Covert Communication in the Presence of Block Fading

Covert communication is the undetected transmission of sensitive information over a communication channel. In wireless communication systems, channel impairments such as signal fading present challenges in the effective implementation and analysis of covert communication systems. This paper generalizes early work in the covert communication field by considering asymptotic results for the number of bits that can be covertly transmitted in $n$ channel uses on a block fading channel. Critical to the investigation is characterizing the performance of optimal detectors at the adversary. Matching achievable and converse results are presented.

Sequence Reconstruction over the Deletion Channel

In this paper, we consider the Levenshtein's sequence reconstruction problem in the case where the transmitted codeword is chosen from $\{0,1\}^n$ and the channel can delete up to $t$ symbols from the transmitted codeword. We determine the minimum number of channel outputs (assuming that they are distinct) required to reconstruct a list of size $\ell-1$ of candidate sequences, one of which corresponds to the original transmitted sequence. More specifically, we determine the maximum possible size of the intersection of $\ell \geq 3$ deletion balls of radius $t$ centered at $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{\ell}$, where $x_i \in \{0,1\}^n$ for all $i \in \{1,2,\dots,\ell\}$ and $x_i \neq x_j$ for $i \neq j$, with $ n \geq t+\ell-1$ and $t \geq 1$.

A generalization of the map $χ$

The mapping $ χ_n:\mathbb{F}_2^n \to \mathbb{F}_2^n$ defined by $y=χ_n(x)$ with $y_i = x_i + x_{i+1}x_{i+2} + x_{i+2}$, where the indices are computed modulo $n$, has been widely studied for its application in lightweight cryptography. In this paper, we generalize this mapping and completely characterize all these shift-invariant permutations of the form $y_i=x_{i+u}+x_{i+v}(x_{i+w}+a_i)$, where $0\le u, v, w<n$ and $a_i\in \mathbb{F}_2$, $1\le i\le n$.
