This paper presents conditions for constructing permutation-invariant quantum codes for deletion errors and provides a method for constructing them. Our codes give the first example of quantum codes that can correct two or more deletion…

We propose two systematic constructions of deletion-correcting codes for protecting quantum information. The first one works with qudits of any dimension, but only one deletion is corrected and the constructed codes are asymptotically bad.…

We present many new results related to reliable (interactive) communication over insertion-deletion channels. Synchronization errors, such as insertions and deletions, strictly generalize the usual symbol corruption errors and are much…

This paper presents a coding scheme for an insertion deletion substitution channel. We extend a previous scheme for the deletion channel where polar codes are modified by adding "guard bands" between segments. In the new scheme, each guard…

This paper considers a binary channel with deletions and insertions, where each input bit is transformed in one of the following ways: it is deleted with probability d, or an extra bit is added after it with probability i, or it is…

In this paper, we present a novel communication channel, called the absorption channel, inspired by information transmission in neurons. Our motivation comes from in-vivo nano-machines, emerging medical applications, and brain-machine…

In this paper we study codes for correcting deletable errors in binary words, where each bit is either retained, substituted, erased or deleted and the total number of errors is much smaller compared to the length of the codeword. We…

This paper introduces a neural polar decoder (NPD) for deletion channels with a constant deletion rate. Existing polar decoders for deletion channels exhibit high computational complexity of $O(N^4)$, where $N$ is the block length. This…

A striking feature of quantum error correcting codes is that they can sometimes be used to correct more errors than they can uniquely identify. Such degenerate codes have long been known, but have remained poorly understood. We provide a…

The quantum error correction theory is as a rule formulated in a rather convoluted way, in comparison to classical algebraic theory. This work revisits the error correction in a noisy quantum channel so as to make it intelligible to…

In the random deletion channel, each bit is deleted independently with probability $p$. For the random deletion channel, the existence of codes of rate $(1-p)/9$, and thus bounded away from $0$ for any $p < 1$, has been known. We give an…

Encoding data as a set of unordered strings is receiving great attention as it captures one of the basic features of DNA storage systems. However, the challenge of constructing optimal redundancy codes for this channel remained elusive. In…

Two-dimensional (2D) convolutional codes are a generalization of (1D) convolutional codes, which are very appropriate for transmission over an erasure channel. In this paper, we present a decoding algorithm for 2D convolutional codes over…

We consider the problem of constructing codes that can correct $\delta$ deletions occurring in an arbitrary binary string of length $n$ bits. Varshamov-Tenengolts (VT) codes, dating back to 1965, are zero-error single deletion $(\delta=1)$…

When digital data are transmitted over a noisy channel, it is important to have a mechanism allowing recovery against a limited number of errors. Normally, a user string of 0's and 1's, called bits, is encoded by adding a number of…

This paper tackles two problems that fall under the study of coding for insertions and deletions. These problems are motivated by several applications, among them is reconstructing strands in DNA-based storage systems. Under this paradigm,…

The deletion channel is the simplest point-to-point communication channel that models lack of synchronization. Despite significant effort, little is known about its capacity, and even less about optimal coding schemes. In this paper we…

In the Levenshtein's sequence reconstruction problem a codeword is transmitted through $N$ channels and in each channel a set of errors is introduced to the transmitted word. In previous works, the restriction that each channel provides a…
