Dynamic index coding for wireless broadcast networks
Abstract— We consider a wireless broadcast station that transmits packets to multiple users. The packet requests for each user may overlap, and some users may already have certai...

An Information Theoretic Representation of Agent Dynamics as Set Intersections
We represent agents as sets of strings. Each string encodes a potential interaction with another agent or environment. We represent the total set of dynamics between two agents as ...

A Monotonicity Principle for Information Theory
We establish a monotonicity principle for convex functions that enables high-level reasoning about capacity in information theory. Despite its simplicity, this single idea is rema...
