Searching for the Kernel of a Polygon - A Competitive Strategy
We present a competitive strategy for walking into the kernel of an initially unknown star-shaped polygon. From an arbitrary start point, s, within the polygon, our strategy find...

An Improved Sphere-Packing Bound for Finite-Length Codes Over Symmetric Memoryless Channels
This paper derives an improved sphere-packing (ISP) bound for finite-length error-correcting codes whose transmission takes place over symmetric memoryless channels, and the codes...

On Kernels, Margins, and Low-Dimensional Mappings
Kernel functions are typically viewed as providing an implicit mapping of points into a high-dimensional space, with the ability to gain much of the power of that space without inc...

Limits on the ability of quantum states to convey classical messages
We revisit the problem of conveying classical messages by transmitting quantum states, and derive new, optimal bounds on the number of quantum bits required for this task. Much of...
