Error-correcting codes are a method for representing data, so that one can recover the original information even if some parts of it were corrupted. The basic idea, which dates back to the revolutionary work of Shannon and Hamming about a…
Generalized Goppa codes are defined by a code locator set $\mathcal{L}$ of polynomials and a Goppa polynomial $G(x)$. When the degree of all code locator polynomials in $\mathcal{L}$ is one, generalized Goppa codes are classical Goppa…

Subspace codes were introduced in order to correct errors and erasures for randomized network coding, in the case where network topology is unknown (the noncoherent case). Subspace codes are indeed collections of subspaces of a certain…

For polar codes with short-to-medium code length, list successive cancellation decoding is used to achieve a good error-correcting performance. However, list pruning in the current list decoding is based on the sorting strategy and its…
Folded Reed-Solomon codes are an explicit family of codes that achieve the optimal trade-off between rate and error-correction capability: specifically, for any $\eps > 0$, the author and Rudra (2006,08) presented an $n^{O(1/\eps)}$ time…
