Motivated by applications to DNA storage, we study reconstruction and list-reconstruction schemes for integer vectors that suffer from limited-magnitude errors. We characterize the asymptotic size of the intersection of error balls in…
It is reasonable to expect the theory of quantum codes to be simplified in the case of codes of minimum distance 2; thus, it makes sense to examine such codes in the hopes that techniques that prove effective there will generalize. With…
Stabilizer codes obtained via CSS code construction and Steane's enlargement of subfield-subcodes and matrix-product codes coming from generalized Reed-Muller, hyperbolic and affine variety codes are studied. Stabilizer codes with good…
New bounds on the cardinality of permutation codes equipped with the Ulam distance are presented. First, an integer-programming upper bound is derived, which improves on the Singleton-type upper bound in the literature for some lengths.…

The edit distance (a.k.a. the Levenshtein distance) between two strings is defined as the minimum number of insertions, deletions or substitutions of symbols needed to transform one string into another. The problem of computing the edit…
The minimum distance graph of a code has the codewords as vertices and edges exactly when the Hamming distance between two codewords equals the minimum distance of the code. A constructive proof for reconstructibility of an extended perfect…
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…
In this paper motivated from subspace coding we introduce subspace-metric codes and subset-metric codes. These are coordinate-position independent pseudometrics and suitable for the folded codes. The half-Singleton upper bounds for linear…
This paper investigates the decoding of a remarkable set of lattices: We treat in a unified framework the Leech lattice in dimension 24, the Nebe lattice in dimension 72, and the Barnes-Wall lattices. A new interesting lattice is…
A new class of spherical codes is constructed by selecting a finite subset of flat tori from a foliation of the unit sphere S^{2L-1} of R^{2L} and designing a structured codebook on each torus layer. The resulting spherical code can be the…
We consider the following generalization of an $(n,k)$ MDS code for application to an erasure channel with additive noise. Like an MDS code, our code is required to be decodable from any $k$ received symbols, in the absence of noise. In…
Correcting insertions/deletions as well as substitution errors simultaneously plays an important role in DNA-based storage systems as well as in classical communications. This paper deals with the fundamental task of constructing codes that…
Generalized bicycle (GB) codes is a class of quantum error-correcting codes constructed from a pair of binary circulant matrices. Unlike for other simple quantum code ans\"atze, unrestricted GB codes may have linear distance scaling. In…
We propose a new low-density parity-check code construction scheme based on 2-lifts. The proposed codes have an advantage of admitting efficient hardware implementations. With the motivation of designing codes with low error floors, we…

The use of skew polynomial rings allows to endow linear codes with cyclic structures which are not cyclic in the classical (commutative) sense. Whenever these skew cyclic structures are carefully chosen, some control over the Hamming…
Linear complementary-dual (LCD for short) codes are linear codes that intersect with their duals trivially. LCD codes have been used in certain communication systems. It is recently found that LCD codes can be applied in cryptography. This…
In this paper, we investigate binary reconstruction codes capable of correcting one deletion and one substitution. We define the \emph{single-deletion single-substitution ball} function $ \mathcal{B} $ as a mapping from a sequence to the…
