关于索引编码与图同态

On Index Coding and Graph Homomorphism

Javad B. Ebrahimi, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani

摘要:

本文从图同态的角度研究了索引编码问题。我们表明,最小广播率的索引编码问题的不同变化的问题,如非线性,标量和矢量索引代码,可以上界的最小广播率的另一个索引编码问题时,存在一个同态从补充的边信息图的第一个问题的第二个问题。结果表明,标量和向量索引码问题的几个上界是我们的主要定理之一的特殊情况。对于线性标量指数编码问题,文献[1]已经证明了图的二元线性指数等于图的一个叫做minrank的图论参数。对于无向图,文献[2]证明了$\mathrm{minrank}(G) = k$当且仅当存在从$\bar{G}$到预定图$\bar{G}_k$的同态.结合这两个结果,我们得出:对于无向图,所有线性指数不超过k的有向图都与存在从$\bar{G}$到$\bar{G}_k$的同态的图$G$重合.在本文中,我们给出了一个直接的证明,这一结果的作品,以及有向图。我们将展示如何使用此分类结果来生成标量和向量索引的下界。特别是,我们提供了一个下界的标量指数的有向图的补色数。使用我们的框架,我们表明,通过改变字段的大小,线性指数的有向图可以增加最多的一个因素是独立的节点的数量。

英文摘要:

In this work, we study the problem of index coding from graph homomorphism perspective. We show that the minimum broadcast rate of an index coding problem for different variations of the problem such as non-linear, scalar, and vector index code, can be upper bounded by the minimum broadcast rate of another index coding problem when there exists a homomorphism from the complement of the side information graph of the first problem to that of the second problem. As a result, we show that several upper bounds on scalar and vector index code problem are special cases of one of our main theorems. For the linear scalar index coding problem, it has been shown in [1] that the binary linear index of a graph is equal to a graph theoretical parameter called minrank of the graph. For undirected graphs, in [2] it is shown that $\mathrm{minrank}(G) = k$ if and only if there exists a homomorphism from $\bar{G}$ to a predefined graph $\bar{G}_k$. Combining these two results, it follows that for undirected graphs, all the digraphs with linear index of at most k coincide with the graphs $G$ for which there exists a homomorphism from $\bar{G}$ to $\bar{G}_k$. In this paper, we give a direct proof to this result that works for digraphs as well. We show how to use this classification result to generate lower bounds on scalar and vector index. In particular, we provide a lower bound for the scalar index of a digraph in terms of the chromatic number of its complement. Using our framework, we show that by changing the field size, linear index of a digraph can be at most increased by a factor that is independent from the number of the nodes.
