RANDOM
Density Frankl–Rödl on the Sphere

Authors: Venkatesan Guruswami and Shilun Li

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)


Abstract
We establish a density variant of the Frankl–Rödl theorem on the sphere 𝕊^{n-1}, which concerns avoiding pairs of vectors with a specific distance, or equivalently, a prescribed inner product. In particular, we establish lower bounds on the probability that a randomly chosen pair of such vectors lies entirely within a measurable subset A ⊆ 𝕊^{n-1} of sufficiently large measure. Additionally, we prove a density version of spherical avoidance problems, which generalize from pairwise avoidance to broader configurations with prescribed pairwise inner products. Our framework encompasses a class of configurations we call inductive configurations, which include simplices with any prescribed inner product -1 < r < 1. As a consequence of our density statement, we show that all inductive configurations are sphere Ramsey.

RANDOM
A Deterministic Construction of a Large Distance Code from the Wozencraft Ensemble

Authors: Venkatesan Guruswami and Shilun Li

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 275, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2023)


Abstract
We present an explicit construction of a sequence of rate 1/2 Wozencraft ensemble codes (over any fixed finite field 𝔽_q) that achieve minimum distance Ω(√k) where k is the message length. The coefficients of the Wozencraft ensemble codes are constructed using Sidon Sets and the cyclic structure of 𝔽_{q^k} where k+1 is prime with q a primitive root modulo k+1. Assuming Artin’s conjecture, there are infinitely many such k for any prime power q.
