A weight-distribution bound for entropy extractors using linear binary codes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a bound on the bias reduction of a random number generator by processing based on binary linear codes. We introduce a new bound on the total variation distance of the processed output based on the weight distribution of the code generated by the chosen binary matrix. Starting from this result we show a lower bound for the entropy rate of the output of linear binary extractors.

Code generator matrices as RNG conditioners
We quantify precisely the distribution of the output of a binary random number generator (RNG) after conditioning with a binary linear code generator matrix by showing the connection between the Walsh spectrum of the resulting random variable and the weight distribution of the code. Previously known bounds on the performance of linear binary codes as entropy extractors can be derived by conside...
متن کاملNon-Binary LDPC Codes and EXIT Like Functions
In the first part of this thesis we are interested in the asymptotic performance analysis of Non-Binary Low-Density Parity-Check (NBLDPC) codes over the Binary Erasure Channel (BEC) decoded via the suboptimal Belief Propagation (BP) decoder as well as the optimal Maximum-A-Posteriori (MAP) decoder. Previously, NBLDPC codes defined with respect to a finite field have been studied in the literatu...
متن کاملOn the Minimum Distance of Non Binary LDPC Codes
Minimum distance is an important parameter of a linear error correcting code. For improved performance of binary Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes, we need to have the minimum distance grow fast with n, the codelength. However, the best we can hope for is a linear growth in dmin with n. For binary LDPC codes, the necessary and sufficient conditions on the LDPC ensemble parameters, to ensure...
متن کاملWords of Minimal Weight and Weight Distribution in Binary Goppa Codes
The weight distribution of a Goppa code is proven to be “close” to the binomial weight distribution found in a random linear code. Some bounds have been found on the distance between the two distributions and this distance is incredibly small for some particular weights. However, for smaller weights the bound on the distance is of no use. Using an algorithm to find words of minimal weight we we...
متن کاملAn Entropy Lower Bound for Non-Malleable Extractors
A (k, ε)-non-malleable extractor is a function nmExt : {0, 1}×{0, 1} → {0, 1} that takes two inputs, a weak source X ∼ {0, 1} of min-entropy k and an independent uniform seed s ∈ {0, 1}, and outputs a bit nmExt(X, s) that is ε-close to uniform, even given the seed s and the value nmExt(X, s′) for an adversarially chosen seed s′ 6= s. Dodis and Wichs (STOC 2009) showed the existence of (k, ε)-no...
