We improve upon the Johnson-type bound of Hayashi and Yasunaga for insertion-deletion codes by encoding each local list into a binary constant-weight code. The resulting local list-size bound is tight for sufficiently large alphabets.…

Many proofs in discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science are based on the probabilistic method. To prove the existence of a good object, we pick a random object and show that it is bad with low probability. This method is…

In this work, we study the problem of list decoding of insertions and deletions. We present a Johnson-type upper bound on the maximum list size. The bound is meaningful only when insertions occur. Our bound implies that there are binary…
