Simpler and Improved Replacement Path Coverings

Davide Bilo, Shiri Chechik, Keerti Choudhary, Sarel Cohen, Martin Schirneck · 2026

An important tool in the design of fault-tolerant graph data structures are $(L,f)$-replacement path coverings (RPCs). An RPC is a family $\mathcal{G}$ of subgraphs of a given graph $G$ such that, for…

A Generalisation of Goursat's Algorithm for Integration in Finite Terms

Sam Blake · 2026

We give a self-contained, modern exposition of \'Edouard Goursat's 1887 theorem on pseudo-elliptic integrals -- those integrals of the form $\int F(t)\,\d t/\sqrt{R(t)}$ with $R$ a cubic or quartic po…

A Sufficient-Statistic Reduction of the Information Bottleneck to a Low-Dimensional Problem

Joss Armstrong · 2026

We show that if the conditional distribution p(C | T) factors through a sufficient statistic {\phi}(T), then the Information Bottleneck (IB) problem for (T, C) is exactly equivalent to the IB problem …

Twisted and Twisted Linearized Reed--Solomon Codes, LCD and ACD MDS constructions

Sanjit Bhowmick, Kuntal Deka, Edgar Martinez-Moro · 2026

We investigate a natural subfamily of twisted linearized Reed--Solomon (TLRS) codes in the sum-rank metric, where the twist is applied only to the constant term. We establish a simple necessary and su…

Tight Bounds for some W[1]-hard Problems Parameterized by Multi-clique-width

Benjamin Bergougnoux, Vera Chekan, Stefan Kratsch · 2026

In this work we contribute to the study of the fine-grained complexity of problems parameterized by multi-clique-width, which was initiated by F\"urer [ITCS 2017] and pursued further by Chekan and Kra…

A Quantitative Confirmation of the Currier Language Distinction

Christophe Parisel · 2026

We present a quantitative analysis of character-pair substitution ratios in the Voynich manuscript, testing whether Currier's A/B language distinction (1976) reflects a genuine structural property of …

Praxy Voice: Voice-Prompt Recovery + BUPS for Commercial-Class Indic TTS from a Frozen Non-Indic Base at Zero Commercial-Training-Data Cost

Venkata Pushpak Teja Menta · 2026

Commercial TTS systems produce near-native Indic audio, but the best open-source bases (Chatterbox, Indic Parler-TTS, IndicF5) trail them on measured phonological dimensions, and the most widely adopt…

Covariance-Aware Demapping on Fourier-Curve Constellations

Bin Han, Muxia Sun, H. Vincent Poor, Hans D. Schotten · 2026

Injecting artificial noise (AN) along the tangent space of a curved constellation makes each transmitted symbol induce a Gaussian observation with a symbol-dependent rank-one covariance, so the matche…
