In this paper, we prove that with high probability, random Reed-Solomon codes approach the half-Singleton bound - the optimal rate versus error tradeoff for linear insdel codes - with linear-sized alphabets. More precisely, we prove that,…
Lifted Reed-Solomon and multiplicity codes are classes of codes, constructed from specific sets of $m$-variate polynomials. These codes allow for the design of high-rate codes that can recover every codeword or information symbol from many…
In this work we explore error-correcting codes derived from the "lifting" of "affine-invariant" codes. Affine-invariant codes are simply linear codes whose coordinates are a vector space over a field and which are invariant under…
Polynomial evaluation codes hold a prominent place in coding theory. In this work, we study the problem of list decoding for a general class of polynomial evaluation codes, also known as Toric codes, that are defined for any given convex…
Assuming that we have a soft-decision list decoding algorithm of a linear code, a new hard-decision list decoding algorithm of its repeated code is proposed in this article. Although repeated codes are not used for encoding data, due to…
We extend coded distributed computing over finite fields to allow the number of workers to be larger than the field size. We give codes that work for fully general matrix multiplication and show that in this case we serendipitously have…
In this paper we construct an algebraic invariant attached to Galois representations over number fields. This invariant, which we call an Artin symmetric function, lives in a certain ring we introduce called the ring of arithmetic symmetric…
An improved Singleton-type upper bound is presented for the list decoding radius of linear codes, in terms of the code parameters [n,k,d] and the list size L. L-MDS codes are then defined as codes that attain this bound (under a slightly…
This paper presents a method to determine a set of basis polynomials from the extended Euclidean algorithm that allows Generalized Minimum Distance decoding of Reed-Solomon codes with a complexity of O(nd).
We present a new decoding algorithm based on error locating pairs and correcting an amount of errors exceeding half the minimum distance. When applied to Reed--Solomon or algebraic geometry codes, the algorithm is a reformulation of the…
Twisted generalized Reed-Solomon (TGRS) codes were introduced to extend the algebraic capabilities of classical generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes. This extension holds the potential for constructing new non-GRS maximum distance separable…
Despite of tremendous research on decoding Reed-Solomon (RS) and algebraic geometry (AG) codes under the random and adversary substitution error models, few studies have explored these codes under the burst substitution error model. Burst…
Recently, Martinez-Penas and Kschischang (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 2019) showed that lifted linearized Reed-Solomon codes are suitable codes for error control in multishot network coding. We show how to construct and decode lifted…
We decode Reed-Solomon codes using soft information provided at the receiver. The Extended Euclidean Algorithm (EEA) is considered as an initial step to obtain an intermediate result. The final decoding result is obtained by interpolating…
We define a class of automorphisms of rational function fields of finite characteristic and employ these to construct different types of optimal linear rank-metric codes. The first construction is of generalized Gabidulin codes over…
Fast encoding and decoding of codes have been always an important topic in code theory as well as complexity theory. Although encoding is easier than decoding in general, designing an encoding algorithm of codes of length $N$ with…
Linearized Reed-Solomon (LRS) codes are evaluation codes based on skew polynomials. They achieve the Singleton bound in the sum-rank metric and therefore are known as maximum sum-rank distance (MSRD) codes. In this work, we give necessary…
Constructing Reed-Solomon (RS) codes that can correct insertion and deletion (ins-del) errors has been the focus of several recent studies. However, efficient decoding algorithms for such codes have received less attention and remain a…
