Maximum number of vectors with upper bound on pairwise inner products

I have a collection $\{v_1,...,v_k\}$ of vectors in $\{\pm 1\}^n$ with the property that for all $i\neq j$ we have $\langle v_i, v_j \rangle \le c\log_2(n)$. I am looking for an upper bound on $k$ in ...

Is this model of converting integers to Gray code correct?

The model shown in the figure converts all numbers that have k digits in the binary system to Gray code without any calculation, but I have no proof that guarantees this claim. Here is some ...

PRNG and coding theory

Let $k, n \in \mathbb{N}$, $k = (1 - \epsilon)n$ where $1 >\epsilon > 0$. I want to find $f: \{0,1\}^k \to \{0, 1\}^n$ such that: 1) $f(a) \not= f(b)$ if $a \not=b $ 2) for any $x \in \{0,1\}...

Minimum number of operations necessary to arrive at any configuration

Let $k \geq 2$ and $N_1, N_2, ..., N_k$ be positive integers. Let $S=\{(a_1,a_2,...,a_k) \in \mathbb{Z}^k:1 \leq a_i \leq N_i\}$ and $A=\{1,2,...,\prod_{i=1}^{k} N_{i}\}$. Given a bijective map $f:...

Optimal covering and CSPNG

Consider a function $f: \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}^{cn}$, where $c>1$. A random $f$ with high probability generates optimal covering of $\{0,1\}^{cn}$, i. e.: $\forall x \in \{0,1\}^{cn}$ $\exists y \...

Asymtotic Complexity Analysis using logarithms and binomial coefficients

On page 11 of "Smaller decoding exponents: ball-collision decoding" by Berstein et.al. they have the formula \begin{equation}\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{n}\log_{2}\left(\dbinom{k_{1}}{p_{1}}\...
