Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are a class of erasure codes that are widely used in distributed storage systems, which allow for efficient recovery of data in the case of node failures or data loss. In 2014, Tamo and Barg introduced…

Maximally recoverable codes are a class of codes which recover from all potentially recoverable erasure patterns given the locality constraints of the code. In earlier works, these codes have been studied in the context of codes with…

In this paper, we introduce a model of a distributed storage system that is locally recoverable from any single server failure. Unlike the usual local recovery model of codes for distributed storage, this model accounts for the fact that…

A locally decodable code (LDC) C:{0,1}^k -> {0,1}^n is an error correcting code wherein individual bits of the message can be recovered by only querying a few bits of a noisy codeword. LDCs found a myriad of applications both in theory and…

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…

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…

Motivated by the construction of optimal locally repairable codes, we introduce the new finite geometric concept of a \emph{local arc} which is defined as a collection $\mathcal{S}$ of disjoint point sets $S_{i}$ in $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$ such…

An [n, k] linear code C that is subject to locality constraints imposed by a parity check matrix H0 is said to be a maximally recoverable (MR) code if it can recover from any erasure pattern that some k-dimensional subcode of the null space…

In this paper, we first generalize the class of linear codes by Ding and Ding (IEEE TIT, 61(11), pp. 5835-5842, 2015). Then we mainly study the augmented codes of this generalized class of linear codes. For one thing, we use Gaussian sums…
