Ning Cai was an eminent mathematician, engineer and computer scientist who made many significant contributions to information theory. In particular, his work on network coding theory created a new research direction for the community. Prof. Cai’s passion for science inspired his collaborators across the fields of classical and quantum information theory, combinatorics, computation, post-Shannon theory, and coding theory, and the contributions in this volume reflect his success as a researcher and mentor.

Numbers, Information and Complexity is a collection of about 50 articles in honour of Rudolf Ahlswede. His main areas of research are represented in the three sections, `Numbers and Combinations', `Information Theory (Channels and Networks, Combinatorial and Algebraic Coding, Cryptology, with the related fields Data Compression, Entropy Theory, Symbolic Dynamics, Probability and Statistics)', and `Complexity'. Special attention was paid to the interplay between the fields. Surveys on topics of current interest are included as well as new research results. The book features surveys on Combinatorics about topics such as intersection theorems, which are not yet covered in textbooks, several contributions by leading experts in data compression, and relations to Natural Sciences are discussed.
