We construct locally decodable codes (LDCs) to correct insertion-deletion errors in the setting where the sender and receiver share a secret key or where the channel is resource-bounded. Our constructions rely on a so-called…

Locally Decodable Codes (LDCs) are error correcting codes which permit the recovery of any single message symbol with a low number of queries to the codeword (the locality). Traditional LDC tradeoffs between the rate, locality, and error…
