Pseudocodewords of quantum, quasi-cyclic, and spatially-coupled LDPC codes: a fundamental cone perspective
Wittawat Kositwattanarerk, Gretchen L. Matthews, Emily McMillon +1
While low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are near capacity-achieving when paired with iterative decoders, these decoders may not output a codeword due to the existence of pseudo…

A Combinatorial Approach to Avoiding Weak Keys in the BIKE Cryptosystem
Gretchen L Matthews, Emily McMillon
Bit Flipping Key Encapsulation (BIKE) is a code-based cryptosystem that was considered in Round 4 of the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization process. It is based on quas…
