Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a Hamming ball
Amit Avni, Alex Samorodnitsky
We describe the eigenvalues and the eigenspaces of the adjacency matrices of subgraphs of the Hamming cube induced by Hamming balls, and more generally, by a union of adjacent conc…
Weight distribution of random linear codes and Krawchouk polynomials
Alex Samorodnitsky
For and pick uniformly at random vectors in and let be the orthogonal complement of their span. Given with $…
A moment ratio bound for polynomials and some extremal properties of Krawchouk polynomials and Hamming spheres
Naomi Kirshner, Alex Samorodnitsky
Let . We improve the bound for a polynomial of degree on the boolean cube , which comes from hypercontractivit…
On coset leader graphs of structured linear codes
Eran Iceland, Alex Samorodnitsky
We suggest a new approach to obtain bounds on locally correctable and some locally testable binary linear codes, by arguing that these codes (or their subcodes) have coset leader g…
On ratio of functions with restricted Fourier support
Naomi Kirshner, Alex Samorodnitsky
Given a subset , let be the maximal ratio between and norms of a function whose Fourier support is a subset of . We make some sim…
Bounds on the permanent and some applications
Leonid Gurvits, Alex Samorodnitsky
We give new lower and upper bounds on the permanent of a doubly stochastic matrix. Combined with previous work, this improves on the deterministic approximation factor for the perm…
