Algebraic codes and sequences

Thu 02 Sep, 09.55-12.45, Room 1

Invited session
Organizer: Patrick Solé

Jean-Claude Belfiore and Patrick Solé
Unimodular Lattices for the Gaussian Wiretap Channel

Abstract: In [Belfiore/Oggier, 2010] the authors introduced a lattice invariant called "Secrecy Gain" which measures the confusion experienced by a passive eavesdropper on the Gaussian Wiretap Channel. We study, here, the behavior of this invariant for unimodular lattices by using tools from Modular Forms and show that, for some families of unimodular lattices, indexed by the dimension, the secrecy gain exponentially goes to infinity with the dimension.

Marcus Greferath and Alexandr Nechaev
Generalized Frobenius Extensions of Finite Rings and Trace Functions

Abstract: We present a notion of generalized Frobenius extension for finite rings, and study related trace functions. Then we show applications of such extensions for algebraic coding theory.

Self-dual codes and their applications

The enumeration of Costas arrays of order 28

Abstract: We present the results of the enumeration of Costas arrays of order 28: all arrays found are accounted for by the Golomb and Welch construction methods, making 28 the first order (larger than 5) for which no sporadic Costas arrays exist. The enumeration was performed on several computer clusters and required the equivalent of 70 years of single CPU time.
