Minimal Counterexamples of the MacWilliams Extension Theorem for Stabilizer Codes

Ali Assem Mahmoud

The MacWilliams extension theorem fails for module alphabets with non-cyclic socle, and the label alphabet of qudit stabilizer codes, $\F_{q^2}$ over $\F_q$, is such an alphabet. Q…

Vectorized Sequence-Based Chunking for Data Deduplication

Sreeharsha Udayashankar, Samer Al-Kiswany

Data deduplication has gained wide acclaim as a mechanism to improve storage efficiency and conserve network bandwidth. Its most critical phase, data chunking, is responsible for t…

Benchmarking Quantum Instruments

Darian McLaren, Matthew A. Graydon, Ali Assem Mahmoud +1

Quantum measurements with feed-forward are crucial components of fault-tolerant quantum computers. We show how the error rate of such a measurement can be directly estimated by fit…

Enumerative Methods in Quantum Electrodynamics

Ali Assem Mahmoud

We show that observables in QED-type theories can be realized in terms of a combinatorial structure called chord diagrams. One advantage of this combinatorial representation is tha…

An Asymptotic Expansion for the Number of 2-Connected Chord Diagrams

Ali Assem Mahmoud

We derive a functional relation between the generating functions of connected chord diagrams and 2-connected chord diagrams. This relation enables us to calculate an asymptotic exp…

Connected Chord Diagrams and the Combinatorics of Asymptotic Expansions

Ali Assem Mahmoud, Karen Yeats

In this article we study an asymptotic expansion for , the number of connected chord diagrams on chords. The expansion is obtained in earlier work by means of alien deriva…

Modules with Non-Cyclic Socle and the Extension Property

Ali Assem Mahmoud

In 2009, J. Wood proved that Frobenius bimodules have the extension property for symmetrized weight compositions. More generally, it was later shown that having a cyclic socle is s…

On the Enumerative Structures in Quantum Field Theory

Ali Assem Mahmoud

This thesis addresses a number of enumerative problems that arise in the context of quantum field theory and in the process of renormalization. In particular, the enumeration of ro…

Diffeomorphisms of Scalar Quantum Fields via Generating Functions

Ali Assem Mahmoud, Karen Yeats

We study the application of formal diffeomorphisms to scalar fields. We give a new proof that interacting tree amplitudes vanish in the resulting theories. Our proof is directly at…
