This paper studies bounds and constructions of locally repairable codes (LRCs) with multiple localities so-called multiple-locality LRCs (ML-LRCs). In the simplest case of two localities some code symbols of an ML-LRC have a certain…

A locally decodable code (LDC) maps $K$ source symbols, each of size $L_w$ bits, to $M$ coded symbols, each of size $L_x$ bits, such that each source symbol can be decoded from $N \leq M$ coded symbols. A perfectly smooth LDC further…

Recently, locally repairable codes has gained significant interest for their potential applications in distributed storage systems. However, most constructions in existence are over fields with size that grows with the number of servers,…
In distributed storage systems, locally repairable codes (LRCs) are designed to reduce disk I/O and repair costs by enabling recovery of each code symbol from a small number of other symbols. To handle multiple node failures,…
We construct families of locally recoverable codes with availability $t\geq 2$ using fiber products of curves, determine the exact minimum distance of many families, and prove a general theorem for minimum distance of such codes. The paper…
The minimum distance is one of the most important combinatorial characterizations of a code. The maximum likelihood decoding problem is one of the most important algorithmic problems of a code. While these problems are known to be hard for…
Erasure codes are being increasingly used in distributed-storage systems in place of data-replication, since they provide the same level of reliability with much lower storage overhead. We consider the problem of constructing explicit…
We address the problem of constructing a fast lossless code in the case when the source alphabet is large. The main idea of the new scheme may be described as follows. We group letters with small probabilities in subsets (acting as super…
Employing underlying geometric and algebraic structures allows for constructing bespoke codes for local recovery of erasures. We survey techniques for enriching classical codes with additional machinery, such as using lines or curves in…
Modern large-scale distributed storage systems use erasure codes to protect against node failures with low storage overhead. In practice, the failure rate and other factors of storage devices in the system may vary significantly over time,…
Locally repairable codes(LRCs) play important roles in distributed storage systems(DSS). LRCs with small locality have their own advantages since fewer available symbols are needed in the recovery of erased symbols. In this paper, we prove…
Locally repairable codes are widely applicable in contemporary large-scale distributed cloud storage systems and various other areas. By making use of some algebraic structures of elliptic curves, Li et al. developed a series of $q$-ary…
A code over a finite field is called locally recoverable code (LRC) if every coordinate symbol can be determined by a small number (at most r, this parameter is called locality) of other coordinate symbols. For a linear code with length n,…
The locally repairable code (LRC) studied in this paper is an $[n,k]$ linear code of which the value at each coordinate can be recovered by a linear combination of at most $r$ other coordinates. The central problem in this work is to…
