Reliability-Dependent Scaling Laws of Deterministic Identification over Binary Symmetric Channels

Abstract

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of deterministic identification (DID) over binary symmetric channels (BSCs) under vanishing error constraints. By introducing a minimum error parameter, we characterize how different error-decay regimes affect the achievable DID rate. General achievability and converse bounds are derived, with explicit asymptotic characterizations in the large-deviation, moderate-deviation, and central-limit regimes. The achievability analysis combines coding-theoretic constructions with probabilistic concentration techniques, while the converse links statistical distinguishability to the minimum-distance structure of DID codes via total variation and Hamming-type bounds. Our results show that the asymptotic behavior of DID over BSCs is governed by a Hamming-shell concentration geometry of channel outputs, offering insights into the finite-blocklength behavior of deterministic identification over discrete-output channels.

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 $a_i\in \mathbb{F}_2$, $1\le i\le n$.
