We construct a family of linear maximally recoverable codes with locality $r$ and dimension $r+1.$ For codes of length $n$ with $r\approx n^\alpha, 0\le\alpha\le 1$ the code alphabet is of the order $n^{1+3\alpha},$ which improves upon the…
We give improved lower bounds for binary $3$-query locally correctable codes (3-LCCs) $C \colon \{0,1\}^k \rightarrow \{0,1\}^n$. Specifically, we prove: (1) If $C$ is a linear design 3-LCC, then $n \geq 2^{(1 - o(1))\sqrt{k} }$. A design…
Locally repairable convolutional codes (LRCCs) for distributed storage systems (DSSs) are introduced in this work. They enable local repair, for a single node erasure (or more generally, $ \partial - 1 $ erasures per local group), and…
It was shown in \cite{GXY18} that the length $n$ of a $q$-ary linear locally recoverable code with distance $d\ge 5$ is upper bounded by $O(dq^3)$. Thus, it is a challenging problem to construct $q$-ary locally recoverable codes with…
Based on the theoretical neuroscience, G. Cotardo and A. Ravagnavi in \cite{CR} introduced a kind of asymmetric binary codes called combinatorial neural codes (CN codes for short), with a "matched metric" $\delta_{r}$ called asymmetric…
In this paper, we consider the Reed-Muller (RM) codes. For the first order RM code, we prove that it is unique in the sense that any linear code with the same length, dimension and minimum distance must be the first order RM code; For the…
Locally repairable codes are desirable for distributed storage systems to improve the repair efficiency. In this paper, we first build a bridge between locally repairable code and packing. As an application of this bridge, some optimal…
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…
This paper studies the problem of code symbol availability: a code symbol is said to have $(r, t)$-availability if it can be reconstructed from $t$ disjoint groups of other symbols, each of size at most $r$. For example, $3$-replication…
The minimum distance of all binary linear codes with dimension at most eight is known. The smallest open case for dimension nine is length $n=46$ with known bounds $19\le d\le 20$. Here we present a $[46,9,20]_2$ code and show its…
In this paper, we provide explicit constructions for a class of exact-repair regenerating codes that possess a layered structure. These regenerating codes correspond to interior points on the storage-repair-bandwidth tradeoff, and compare…
We study the tradeoffs between the locality and parameters of subsystem codes. We prove lower bounds on both the number and lengths of interactions in any $D$-dimensional embedding of a subsystem code. Specifically, we show that any…
A recent landscape analysis of LoRA fine-tuning in the neural tangent kernel regime establishes a sufficient condition $r(r+1)/2 > KN$ on the LoRA rank $r$ for the absence of spurious local minima under squared-error loss, prescribing $r…
The $l$-th stopping redundancy $\rho_l(\mathcal C)$ of the binary $[n, k, d]$ code $\mathcal C$, $1 \le l \le d$, is defined as the minimum number of rows in the parity-check matrix of $\mathcal C$, such that the smallest stopping set is of…
We exhibit seven linear codes exceeding the current best known minimum distance d for their dimension k and block length n. Each code is defined over F_8, and their invariants [n,k,d] are given by [49,13,27], [49,14,26], [49,16,24],…
We investigate one possible generalization of locally recoverable codes (LRC) with all-symbol locality and availability when recovering sets can intersect in a small number of coordinates. This feature allows us to increase the achievable…
In this paper, we construct a new family of distance-optimal binary cyclic codes with the minimum distance $6$ and a new family of distance-optimal quaternary cyclic codes with the minimum distance $4$. We also construct several families of…
Ben-Sasson, Goldreich and Sudan showed that a binary error correcting code admitting a $2$-query tester cannot be good, i.e., it cannot have both linear distance and positive rate. The same holds when the alphabet is a finite field…
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)…
Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes can be used to against side-channel attacks and fault noninvasive attacks. Let $d_{a}(n,6)$ and $d_{l}(n,6)$ be the minimum weights of all binary optimal linear codes and LCD codes with length $n$ and…
