    Follow-up CommIT paper: shows coded caching retains $\mathrm{DoF} = t+1$ even without CSIT. Critical for mmWave and high-mobility scenarios.

    Closely related to Chapter 6 but emphasizes DoF analysis. Useful complementary reading.

    For the underlying MIMO BC capacity and DoF theory. Chapter 8 and 9 cover MIMO BC comprehensively.

    Classical DPC capacity for MIMO BC. Pre-coded-caching, but establishes the MIMO BC capacity baseline that Chapter 5 extends.

    Extends Lampiris-Caire to shared-cache scenarios (multiple users sharing a cache). Relevant for D2D and edge-caching models (Chapters 10–11).
