Abstract(in English) Yamamoto, Tsuchihashi, and Honda proposed binary AIFV (almost instantaneous fixed-to-variable length) codes, which allow at most 2-bit decoding delay. The AIFV codes achieve better or equal compression ratios than ones of Huffman codes. Furthermore, Hu, Yamamoto, and Honda proposed a new class of binary AIFV-$m$ codes consisted of $m$ code trees with at most $m$-bit decoding delay, and they proved the worst-case redundancies of the binary AIFV-$m$ codes are $1/m$ for $m leq 4$. Iwata and Yamamoto proposed an iterative algorithm to obtain the optimal AIFV-$m$ code with $m$ code trees for a given source probability distribution. In this paper, we generalize the optimization problem of AIFV-$m$ code trees to the optimization problem of the average performance of a finite Markov system with $m$-states, which have a unique stationary distribution. Then, we prove that the generalized iterative algorithm can derive the optimal system with $m$-states, and hence, the original iterative algorithm can derive the optimal AIFV-$m$ code.
