Summary

The objective of the proposed research is to improve the encoding and precoding of polar codes to improve their performance in the short-blocklength regime, in both classical and quantum settings. While polar codes are provably capacity-achieving in the infinite blocklength limit, practical systems often operate with relatively short blocklengths, where polar codes perform poorly. Modifications—particularly precoded polar codes—can improve their performance in this regime, bringing them closer to the short-blocklength capacity. This research is primarily motivated by the design of effective precoding strategies and the selection of optimal information sets to further narrow this gap.
