We introduce a decoder for the 3D color code with boundaries, which is a variation of the restriction decoder introduced by Kubicka and Delfosse. Specifically, we adapt the lift procedure to efficiently find a correction on qubits adjacent…

Recently, binary cyclic codes with parameters $[n,(n\pm1)/2,\geq \sqrt{n}]$ have been a hot topic since their minimum distances have a square-root bound. In this paper, we construct four classes of binary cyclic codes…

We prove that for every odd $q\geq 3$, any $q$-query binary, possibly non-linear locally decodable code ($q$-LDC) $E:\{\pm1\}^k \rightarrow \{\pm1\}^n$ must satisfy $k \leq \tilde{O}(n^{1-2/q})$. For even $q$, this bound was established in…
