الوصف: | Zero-error coding encompasses a variety of source and channel problems where the probability of error must be exactly zero. The zero-error constraint differs from the vanishing-error constraint, the latter only requires the probability of error to go to zero when the block length of the code goes to infinity. Here, many problems change from a statistical nature to a combinatorial one, which is tied to the encoder's lack of knowledge about what is observed by the decoder. In this paper, we investigate two unsolved zero-error problems: the source coding with side information and the channel coding. We focus our attention on families of independent problems for which the distribution decomposes into a product of distributions, corresponding to solved zero-error problems. A crucial step is the linearization property of the optimal rate, which does not always hold in the zero-error regime, unlike in the vanishing error regime. By generalizing recent results of Wigderson and Zuiddam, and of Schrijver, we derive a condition under which the linearization properties of the complementary graph entropy H and of the zero-error capacity C0 for the AND product of graph and for the disjoint union of graphs are all equivalent. This provides new single-letter characterization of H and C0, for example when the graph is a product of perfect graphs, which is not perfect in general, and for the class of graphs obtain by the product of a perfect graph G with the pentagon graph C5. By building on Haemers result, we also show that the linearization of the complementary graph entropy does not hold for the product of the Schl\"afli graph with its complementary graph. |
