In this paper, we consider the Reed-Muller (RM) codes. For the first order RM code, we prove that it is unique in the sense that any linear code with the same length, dimension and minimum distance must be the first order RM code; For the…

New soft- and hard decision decoding algorithms are presented for general Reed-Muller codes $\left\{\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{m}{r}\right\} $ of length $2^{m}$ and distance $2^{m-r}$. We use Plotkin $(u,u+v)$ construction and decompose code…

We consider a new class of linear codes, called affine Grassmann codes. These can be viewed as a variant of generalized Reed-Muller codes and are closely related to Grassmann codes. We determine the length, dimension, and the minimum…

The classical Reed-Muller codes over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ are based on evaluations of $m$-variate polynomials of degree at most $d$ over a product set $U^m$, for some $d$ less than $|U|$. Because of their good distance properties,…

We define and study a class of Reed-Muller type error-correcting codes obtained from elementary symmetric functions in finitely many variables. We determine the code parameters and higher weight spectra in the simplest cases.

We propose a new class of efficient decoding algorithms for Reed-Muller (RM) codes over binary-input memoryless channels. The algorithms are based on projecting the code on its cosets, recursively decoding the projected codes (which are…

We introduce the sum-rank metric analogue of Reed--Muller codes, which we called linearized Reed--Muller codes, using multivariate Ore polynomials. We study the parameters of these codes, compute their dimension and give a lower bound for…

This paper develops an algorithmic approach for obtaining approximate, numerical estimates of the sizes of subcodes of Reed-Muller (RM) codes, all of the codewords in which satisfy a given constraint. Our algorithm is based on a statistical…

Lifted Reed-Solomon codes are a natural affine-invariant family of error-correcting codes which generalize Reed-Muller codes. They were known to have efficient local-testing and local-decoding algorithms (comparable to the known algorithms…

Reed-Muller (RM) codes achieve the capacity of general binary-input memoryless symmetric channels and are conjectured to have a comparable performance to that of random codes in terms of scaling laws. However, such results are established…

The weighted-Hamming metric generalizes the Hamming metric by assigning different weights to blocks of coordinates. It is well-suited for applications such as coding over independent parallel channels, each of which has a different level of…

We present a novel iterative decoding algorithm for Reed-Muller (RM) codes, which takes advantage of a graph representation of the code. Vertices of the considered graph correspond to codewords, with two vertices being connected by an edge…

Multivariate multiplicity codes (Kopparty, Saraf, and Yekhanin, J. ACM 2014) are linear codes where the codewords are described by evaluations of multivariate polynomials (with a degree bound) and their derivatives up to a fixed order, on a…
