Linear erasure codes with local repairability are desirable for distributed data storage systems. An [n, k, d] code having all-symbol (r, \delta})-locality, denoted as (r, {\delta})a, is considered optimal if it also meets the minimum…

A construction of expander codes is presented with the following three properties: (i) the codes lie close to the Singleton bound, (ii) they can be encoded in time complexity that is linear in their code length, and (iii) they have a…

This paper studies optimal quantum $(r,\delta)$-LRCs from matrix-product (MP) codes. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for an MP code to be an optimal $(r,\delta)$-LRC. Based on this, we present a characterization for…

We revisit computationally relaxed locally decodable codes (crLDCs) (Blocki et al., Trans. Inf. Theory '21) and give two new constructions. Our first construction is a Hamming crLDC that is conceptually simpler than prior constructions,…

Locally recoverable codes are widely used in distributed and cloud storage systems. The objective of this paper is to present a construction of near MDS codes with oval polynomials and then determine the locality of the codes. It turns out…

The focus of this paper is on linear, binary codes with locality having locality parameter $r$, that are capable of recovering from $t\geq 2$ erasures and that moreover, have short block length. Both sequential and parallel (through…

Recently, it was discovered by several authors that a $q$-ary optimal locally recoverable code, i.e., a locally recoverable code archiving the Singleton-type bound, can have length much bigger than $q+1$. This is quite different from the…

In this work, we construct the first locally-correctable codes (LCCs), and locally-testable codes (LTCs) with constant rate, constant relative distance, and sub-polynomial query complexity. Specifically, we show that there exist binary LCCs…

Locally testable codes (LTC) are error-correcting codes that have a local tester which can distinguish valid codewords from words that are "far" from all codewords by probing a given word only at a very few (sublinear, typically constant)…

We extend the notion of locality from the Hamming metric to the rank and subspace metrics. Our main contribution is to construct a class of array codes with locality constraints in the rank metric. Our motivation for constructing such codes…

Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are ingeniously designed distributed storage codes with a (usually small) fixed set of helper nodes participating in repair. Since most existing LRCs assume exact repair and allow full exchange of the stored…

In this paper, we study codes with locality that can recover from two erasures via a sequence of two local, parity-check computations. By a local parity-check computation, we mean recovery via a single parity-check equation associated to…

We construct the first asymptotically good relaxed locally correctable codes with polylogarithmic query complexity, bringing the upper bound polynomially close to the lower bound of Gur and Lachish (SICOMP 2021). Our result follows from…

We introduce two new classes of covering codes in graphs for every positive integer $r$. These new codes are called local $r$-identifying and local $r$-locating-dominating codes and they are derived from $r$-identifying and…

Locally repairable codes have been extensively investigated due to practical applications in distributed and cloud storage systems in recent years. However, not much work on asymptotic behavior of locally repairable codes has been done. In…

Optimal locally repairable codes with information locality are considered. Optimal codes are constructed, whose length is also order-optimal with respect to a new bound on the code length derived in this paper. The length of the constructed…

Spatially-Coupled (SC)-LDPC codes are known to have outstanding error-correction performance and low decoding latency. Whereas previous works on LDPC and SC-LDPC codes mostly take either an asymptotic or a finite-length design approach, in…

A locally recoverable code is a code over a finite alphabet such that the value of any single coordinate of a codeword can be recovered from the values of a small subset of other coordinates. Building on work of Barg, Tamo, and…
