Third-Order Asymptotics of Variable-Length Compression Allowing Errors

Yuta Sakai, Recep Can Yavas, Vincent Y. F. Tan

This study investigates the fundamental limits of variable-length compression in which prefix-free constraints are not imposed (i.e., one-to-one codes are studied) and non-vanishin…

Asymptotic Expansions of Smooth Rényi Entropies and Their Applications

Yuta Sakai, Vincent Y. F. Tan

This study considers the unconditional smooth Rényi entropy, the smooth conditional Rényi entropy proposed by Kuzuoka [\emph{IEEE Trans.\ Inf.\ Theory}, vol.~66, no.~3, pp.~1674--1…

Variable-Length Source Dispersions Differ under Maximum and Average Error Criteria

Yuta Sakai, Vincent Y. F. Tan

Variable-length compression without prefix-free constraints and with side-information available at both encoder and decoder is considered. Instead of requiring the code to be error…

Countably Infinite Multilevel Source Polarization for Non-Stationary Erasure Distributions

Yuta Sakai, Ken-ichi Iwata, Hiroshi Fujisaki

Polar transforms are central operations in the study of polar codes. This paper examines polar transforms for non-stationary memoryless sources on possibly infinite source alphabet…

Second- and Third-Order Asymptotics of the Continuous-Time Poisson Channel

Yuta Sakai, Vincent Y. F. Tan, Mladen Kovačević

The paper derives the optimal second-order coding rate for the continuous-time Poisson channel. We also obtain bounds on the third-order coding rate. This is the first instance of…

Modular Arithmetic Erasure Channels and Their Multilevel Channel Polarization

Yuta Sakai, Ken-ichi Iwata, Hiroshi Fujisaki

This study proposes \emph{modular arithmetic erasure channels} (MAECs), a novel class of erasure-like channels with an input alphabet that need not be binary. This class contains t…

Asymptotic Distribution of Multilevel Channel Polarization for a Certain Class of Erasure Channels

Yuta Sakai, Ken-ichi Iwata, Hiroshi Fujisaki

This study examines multilevel channel polarization for a certain class of erasure channels that the input alphabet size is an arbitrary composite number. We derive limiting propor…

Generalizations of Fano's Inequality for Conditional Information Measures via Majorization Theory

Yuta Sakai

Fano's inequality is one of the most elementary, ubiquitous, and important tools in information theory. Using majorization theory, Fano's inequality is generalized to a broad class…

Sharp Bounds Between Two Rényi Entropies of Distinct Positive Orders

Yuta Sakai, Ken-ichi Iwata

Many axiomatic definitions of entropy, such as the Rényi entropy, of a random variable are closely related to the -norm of its probability distribution. This study consider…

A Generalized Erasure Channel in the Sense of Polarization for Binary Erasure Channels

Yuta Sakai, Ken-ichi Iwata

The polar transformation of a binary erasure channel (BEC) can be exactly approximated by other BECs. Arıkan proposed that polar codes for a BEC can be efficiently constructed by u…
