A locally recoverable (LRC) code is a code over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that any erased coordinate of a codeword can be recovered from a small number of other coordinates in that codeword. We construct LRC codes correcting more…
A code is locally recoverable when each symbol in one of its code words can be reconstructed as a function of $r$ other symbols. We use bundles of projective spaces over a line to construct locally recoverable codes with availability; that…
Locally recoverable (LRC) codes and their variants have been extensively studied in recent years. In this paper we focus on cyclic constructions of LRC codes and derive conditions on the zeros of the code that support the property of…
Codes for storage systems aim to minimize the repair locality, which is the number of disks (or nodes) that participate in the repair of a single failed disk. Simultaneously, the code must sustain a high rate, operate on a small finite…
We consider the locality of encoding and decoding operations in distributed storage systems (DSS), and propose a new class of codes, called locally encodable and decodable codes (LEDC), that provides a higher degree of operational locality…
We propose a nearest neighbor based clustering algorithm that results in a naturally defined hierarchy of clusters. In contrast to the agglomerative and divisive hierarchical clustering algorithms, our approach is not dependent on the…
The locally repairable codes (LRCs) were introduced to correct erasures efficiently in distributed storage systems. LRCs are extensively studied recently. In this paper, we first deal with the open case remained in \cite{q} and derive an…
We construct locally recoverable codes with hierarchy from surfaces in $\mathbb{A}^3$ admitting a fibration by curves of Artin-Schreier or Kummer type. We derive the parameters of our codes by leveraging the geometry and arithmetic of the…
This comprehensive survey examines the field of alphabetic codes, tracing their development from the 1960s to the present day. We explore classical alphabetic codes and their variants, analyzing their properties and the underlying…
List-decoding and list-recovery are important generalizations of unique decoding that received considerable attention over the years. However, the optimal trade-off among list-decoding (resp. list-recovery) radius, list size, and the code…
A code is called a locally repairable code (LRC) if any code symbol is a function of a small fraction of other code symbols. When a locally repairable code is employed in a distributed storage systems, an erased symbol can be recovered by…
Linear codes over finite extension fields have widespread applications in theory and practice. In some scenarios, the decoder has a sequential access to the codeword symbols, giving rise to a hierarchical erasure structure. In this paper we…
In this paper we propose a new class of spatially coupled codes based on repeat-accumulate protographs. We show that spatially coupled repeat-accumulate codes have several advantages over spatially coupled low-density parity-check codes…
Locally repairable codes enables fast repair of node failure in a distributed storage system. The code symbols in a codeword are stored in different storage nodes, such that a disk failure can be recovered by accessing a small fraction of…
In this work codes with availability are constructed based on the cyclic \emph{locally repairable code} (LRC) construction by Tamo et al. and their extension to $(r,\rho)$-locality by Chen et al. The minimum distance of these codes is…
Constructions of optimal locally repairable codes (LRCs) achieving Singleton-type bound have been exhaustively investigated in recent years. In this paper, we consider new bounds and constructions of Singleton-optimal LRCs with minmum…
We present a new combinatorial characterization for local optimality of a codeword in an irregular Tanner code. The main novelty in this characterization is that it is based on a linear combination of subtrees in the computation trees.…

Locally recoverable codes (LRCs) were proposed for the recovery of data in distributed and cloud storage systems about nine years ago. A lot of progress on the study of LRCs has been made by now. However, there is a lack of general theory…
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…
