In this paper, a link between polymatroid theory and locally repairable codes (LRCs) is established. The codes considered here are completely general in that they are subsets of $A^n$, where $A$ is an arbitrary finite set. Three classes of…
We study monomial-Cartesian codes (MCCs) which can be regarded as $(r,\delta)$-locally recoverable codes (LRCs). These codes come with a natural bound for their minimum distance and we determine those giving rise to $(r,\delta)$-optimal…
This thesis makes several significant contributions to the theory of both Regenerating (RG) and Locally Recoverable (LR) codes. The two principal contributions are characterizing the optimal rate of an LR code designed to recover from $t$…
SC-LDPC codes with sub-block locality can be decoded locally at the level of sub-blocks that are much smaller than the full code block, thus providing fast access to the coded information. The same code can also be decoded globally using…
For binary $[n,k,d]$ linear locally repairable codes (LRCs), two new upper bounds on $k$ are derived. The first one applies to LRCs with disjoint local repair groups, for general values of $n,d$ and locality $r$, containing some previously…
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…
We consider the problem of designing [n; k] linear codes for distributed storage systems (DSS) that satisfy the (r, t)-Local Repair Property, where any t'(<=t) simultaneously failed nodes can be locally repaired, each with locality r. The…
In this note, we apply some techniques developed in [1]-[3] to give a particular construction of bivariate Abelian Codes from cyclic codes, multiplying their dimension and preserving their apparent distance. We show that, in the case of…
Subspace codes and particularly constant dimension codes have attracted much attention in recent years due to their applications in random network coding. As a particular subclass of subspace codes, cyclic subspace codes have additional…
A new approach to bound the minimum distance of $q$-ary cyclic codes is presented. The connection to the BCH and the Hartmann--Tzeng bound is formulated and it is shown that for several cases an improvement is achieved. We associate a…
Cyclic codes are the most studied subclass of linear codes and widely used in data storage and communication systems. Many cyclic codes have optimal parameters or the best parameters known. They are divided into simple-root cyclic codes and…
A new bound on the minimum distance of q-ary cyclic codes is proposed. It is based on the description by another cyclic code with small minimum distance. The connection to the BCH bound and the Hartmann--Tzeng (HT) bound is formulated…
Let $q$ be a prime power and $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field of size $q$. In this paper we provide a Galois theoretical framework that allows to produce good polynomials for the Tamo and Barg construction of optimal locally recoverable…
A locally testable code (LTC) is an error-correcting code that has a property-tester. The tester reads $q$ bits that are randomly chosen, and rejects words with probability proportional to their distance from the code. The parameter $q$ is…
Motivated by applications in distributed storage, the notion of a locally recoverable code (LRC) was introduced a few years back. In an LRC, any coordinate of a codeword is recoverable by accessing only a small number of other coordinates.…
In the context of distributed storage systems, locally repairable codes have become important. In this paper we focus on codes that allow for multi-erasure pattern decoding with low computational effort. Different optimality requirements,…
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 have been investigated extensively in recent years due to practical applications in distributed and cloud storage systems. However, there are few asymptotical constructions of locally repairable codes in the…
Locally repairable codes have become a key instrument in large-scale distributed storage systems. This paper focuses on the construction of locally repairable codes with $(r,\delta)$-locality that achieve the equality in the Singleton-type…
A locally recoverable code is an error-correcting code such that any erasure in a single coordinate of a codeword can be recovered from a small subset of other coordinates. In this article we develop an algorithm that computes a recovery…
