{"abstract":[{"text":"We study the problem of high-dimensional multiple packing in Euclidean space. Multiple packing is a natural generalization of sphere packing and is defined as follows. Let P, N > 0 and L∈Z≥2. A multiple packing is a set C of points in Bn(0–,nP−−−√) such that any point in ℝ n lies in the intersection of at most L – 1 balls of radius nN−−−√ around points in C. 1 In this paper, we derive two lower bounds on the largest possible density of a multiple packing. These bounds are obtained through a stronger notion called average-radius multiple packing. Specifically, we exactly pin down the asymptotics of (expurgated) Gaussian codes and (expurgated) spherical codes under average-radius multiple packing. To this end, we apply tools from high-dimensional geometry and large deviation theory. The bound for spherical codes matches the previous best known bound which was obtained for the standard (weaker) notion of multiple packing through a curious connection with error exponents [Bli99], [ZV21]. The bound for Gaussian codes suggests that they are strictly inferior to spherical codes.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","_id":"12015","page":"3085-3090","day":"03","author":[{"id":"2ce5da42-b2ea-11eb-bba5-9f264e9d002c","full_name":"Zhang, Yihan","last_name":"Zhang","first_name":"Yihan"},{"last_name":"Vatedka","full_name":"Vatedka, Shashank","first_name":"Shashank"}],"publisher":"IEEE","publication":"2022 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory","department":[{"_id":"MaMo"}],"type":"conference","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","conference":{"name":"ISIT: Internation Symposium on Information Theory","end_date":"2022-07-01","start_date":"2022-06-26","location":"Espoo, Finland"},"date_created":"2022-09-04T22:02:05Z","date_updated":"2022-09-05T10:39:04Z","intvolume":" 2022","year":"2022","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["9781665421591"],"issn":["2157-8095"]},"volume":2022,"title":"Lower bounds for multiple packing","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","oa_version":"None","date_published":"2022-08-03T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","month":"08","doi":"10.1109/ISIT50566.2022.9834443","citation":{"ista":"Zhang Y, Vatedka S. 2022.
