  • The Vienna University Observatory
    The Vienna University Observatory THOMAS POSCH Abstract The Vienna University Observatory, housing what was once the world’s largest refracting telescope, still serves as a centre of astronomical research and teaching. In 1819, Johann Josef von Littrow (1781-1840) became Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at the University of Vienna. He tried to move the University Observatory - which was at that time still located at the city centre - to the outskirts, but did not succeed. After his death, his son Carl Ludwig von Littrow (1811-1877) became director of the Observatory. The total solar eclipse which took place on July 8, 1842, in his first year as director, made astronomy very popular and helped promote new investment. In 1872, a large site was acquired for a new observatory on a hill called "Türkenschanze", near the village of Währing outside Vienna. Building began in 1874. The architects of the imposing new building were Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer, both specialists in theatre buildings. Their concept was to combine observatory and apartments on a cross-shaped plan, which was unusually large for its day; 101 m length and 73 m width. The big refractor telescope (with an aperture of 27 inches, or 68 cm and a focal length of 10.5 m) was then the largest refracting telescope in the world. The celebratory opening took place in 1883. The excellent instrumentation made possible numerous remarkable Fig. 1 - Georg von Peuerbach’s ‘Theoricae novae planetarum’, discoveries in the fields of binary stars, Nuremberg 1473 asteroids and comets. However, the Währing district quickly became attractive to the Viennese upper classes and the observatory was soon part of an illuminated urban area.

  • Sharp Threshold Rates for Random Codes∗
    Sharp threshold rates for random codes∗ Venkatesan Guruswami1, Jonathan Mosheiff1, Nicolas Resch2, Shashwat Silas3, and Mary Wootters3 1Carnegie Mellon University 2Centrum Wiskunde en Informatica 3Stanford University September 11, 2020 Abstract Suppose that P is a property that may be satisfied by a random code C ⊂ Σn. For example, for some p 2 (0; 1), P might be the property that there exist three elements of C that lie in some Hamming ball of radius pn. We say that R∗ is the threshold rate for P if a random code of rate R∗ + " is very likely to satisfy P, while a random code of rate R∗ − " is very unlikely to satisfy P. While random codes are well-studied in coding theory, even the threshold rates for relatively simple properties like the one above are not well understood. We characterize threshold rates for a rich class of properties. These properties, like the example above, are defined by the inclusion of specific sets of codewords which are also suitably \symmetric." For properties in this class, we show that the threshold rate is in fact equal to the lower bound that a simple first-moment calculation obtains. Our techniques not only pin down the threshold rate for the property P above, they give sharp bounds on the threshold rate for list-recovery in several parameter regimes, as well as an efficient algorithm for estimating the threshold rates for list-recovery in general. arXiv:2009.04553v1 [cs.IT] 9 Sep 2020 ∗SS and MW are partially funded by NSF-CAREER grant CCF-1844628, NSF-BSF grant CCF-1814629, and a Sloan Research Fellowship.

  • Reflections on ``Improved Decoding of Reed-Solomon and Algebraic-Geometric Codes
    Reflections on \Improved Decoding of Reed-Solomon and Algebraic-Geometric Codes" Venkatesan Guruswami∗ Madhu Sudany March 2002 n A t-error-correcting code over a q-ary alphabet Fq is a set C ⊆ Fq such that for any received n vector r 2 Fq there is at most one vector c 2 C that lies within a Hamming distance of t from r. The minimum distance of the code C is the minimum Hamming distance between any pair of distinct vectors c1; c2 2 C. In his seminal work introducing these concepts, Hamming pointed out that a code of minimum distance 2t + 1 is a t-error-correcting code. It also pointed out the obvious fact that such a code is not a t0-error-correcting code for any t0 > t. We conclude that a code can correct half as many errors as its distance and no more. The mathematical correctness of the above statements are indisputable, yet the interpretation is quite debatable. If a message encoded with a t-error-correcting code ends up getting corrupted in t0 > t places, the decoder may simply throw it hands up in the air and cite the above paragraph. Or, in an alternate notion of decoding, called list decoding, proposed in the late 1950s by Elias [10] and Wozencraft [43], the decoder could try to output a list of codewords within distance t0 of the received vector. If t0 is not much larger than t and the errors are caused by a probabilistic (non-malicious) channel, then most likely this list would have only one element | the transmitted codeword.
