The problem of reconstructing a sequence from the set of its length-$k$ substrings has received considerable attention due to its various applications in genomics. We study an uncoded version of this problem where multiple random sources…
In this paper we study a geometric coding algorithm for indefinite binary quadratic forms Q for the congruence subgroup \Gamma^0(N), with respect to the usual fundamental domain FN, where N is assumed prime. The cycles Q_1, . . ., Q_n that…

In this paper, we show that the projective Reed-Muller~(PRM) codes form a family of locally correctable codes~(LCC) in the regime of low query complexities. A PRM code is specified by the alphabet size $q$, the number of variables $m$, and…
The length function $\ell_q(r,R)$ is the smallest length of a $ q $-ary linear code of codimension $r$ and covering radius $R$. In this work we obtain new constructive upper bounds on $\ell_q(r,R)$ for all $R\ge4$, $r=tR$, $t\ge2$, and also…
Quantum error correction is rapidly seeing first experimental implementations, but there is a significant gap between asymptotically optimal error-correcting codes and codes that are experimentally feasible. Quantum LDPC codes range from…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes have the optimal trade-off between storage efficiency and fault tolerance, which are widely used in distributed storage systems. As typical non-MDS codes, simple regenerating codes (SRCs) can achieve…
This paper presents a construction for high-rate MDS codes that enable bandwidth-efficient repair of a single node. Such MDS codes are also referred to as the minimum storage regenerating (MSR) codes in the distributed storage literature.…
Generalized low-density parity-check (GLDPC) codes, where single parity-check constraints on the code bits are replaced with generalized constraints (an arbitrary linear code), are a promising class of codes for low-latency communication.…
Constructing Reed--Solomon (RS) codes that can correct insertions and deletions (insdel errors) has been considered in numerous recent works. For the special case of two-dimensional RS-codes, it is known [CST23] that an $[n,2]_q$ RS-code…
A coding scheme for two-page unrestricted-rate PRIO code that each page may have different code rates is proposed. In the second page, the code for each messages consists of two complementary codewords with code length n. There are a total…
We present a general framework for constructing high rate error correcting codes that are locally correctable (and hence locally decodable if linear) with a sublinear number of queries, based on lifting codes with respect to functions on…
We prove that for any positive integers $n$ and $k$ such that $n\!\geq\! k\!\geq\! 1$, there exists an $[n,k]$ generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) code that has a sparsest and balanced generator matrix (SBGM) over any finite field of size…
We prove a list recovery guarantee for random low-rate linear codes over sufficiently large prime fields. For fixed dimension $d$, error fraction $\alpha$, and accuracy parameter $\varepsilon$, a random $d$-dimensional linear code $C…
An (n,r)-arc in PG(2,q) is a set of n points such that each line contains at most r of the selected points. It is well-known that (n,r)-arcs in PG(2,q) correspond to projective linear codes. Let m_r(2,q) denote the maximal number n of…
All-photonic quantum repeater is not yet commercially applicable due to difficulty in the generation of repeater graph states (RGS) and the probabilistic nature of Bell-state measurement. In recent years, several deterministic protocols…
