The locally repairable codes (LRCs) were introduced to correct erasures efficiently in distributed storage systems. LRCs are extensively studied recently. In this paper, we first deal with the open case remained in \cite{q} and derive an…

We consider the problem of constructing codes that can correct deletions that are localized within a certain part of the codeword that is unknown a priori. Namely, the model that we study is when at most $k$ deletions occur in a window of…

We derive a single-letter upper bound to the mismatched-decoding capacity for discrete memoryless channels. The bound is expressed as the mutual information of a transformation of the channel, such that a maximum-likelihood decoding error…
