Block-MDS QC-LDPC Codes for Information Reconciliation in Key Distribution

Lev Tauz, Debarnab Mitra, Jayanth Shreekumar +3

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a popular protocol that provides information theoretically secure keys to multiple parties. Two important post-processing steps of QKD are 1) the…

Non-Binary LDPC Code Design for Energy-Time Entanglement Quantum Key Distribution

Debarnab Mitra, Lev Tauz, Murat Can Sarihan +2

In energy-time entanglement Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), two users extract a shared secret key from the arrival times (discretized as symbols) of entangled photon pairs. In prio…

Overcoming Data Availability Attacks in Blockchain Systems: Short Code-Length LDPC Code Design for Coded Merkle Tree

Debarnab Mitra, Lev Tauz, Lara Dolecek

Light nodes are clients in blockchain systems that only store a small portion of the blockchain ledger. In certain blockchains, light nodes are vulnerable to a data availability (D…

Concentrated Stopping Set Design for Coded Merkle Tree: Improving Security Against Data Availability Attacks in Blockchain Systems

Debarnab Mitra, Lev Tauz, Lara Dolecek

In certain blockchain systems, light nodes are clients that download only a small portion of the block. Light nodes are vulnerable to data availability (DA) attacks where a malicio…
