Deep holes play an important role in the decoding of generalized Reed-Solomon codes. Recently, Wu and Hong \cite{WH} found a new class of deep holes for standard Reed-Solomon codes. In the present paper, we give a concise method to obtain a…
In this paper, a new approach for decoding low-rate Reed-Solomon codes beyond half the minimum distance is considered and analyzed. Unlike the Sudan algorithm published in 1997, this new approach is based on multi-sequence shift-register…
Hayes equivalence is defined on monic polynomials over a finite field $\fq$ in terms of the prescribed leading coefficients and the residue classes modulo a given monic polynomial $Q$. We study the distribution of the number of zeros in a…
A distributed storage system stores data across multiple nodes, with the primary objective of enabling efficient data recovery even in the event of node failures. The main goal of an exact repair scheme is to recover the data from a failed…
In a recent breakthrough [BGM23, GZ23, AGL23], it was shown that randomly punctured Reed-Solomon codes are list decodable with optimal list size with high probability, i.e., they attain the Singleton bound for list decoding [ST20, Rot22,…
For an $[n,k]$ Reed-Solomon code $\mathcal{C}$, it can be shown that any received word $r$ lies a distance at most $n-k$ from $\mathcal{C}$, denoted $d(r,\mathcal{C})\leq n-k$. Any word $r$ meeting the equality is called a deep hole.…

Constructing Reed-Solomon (RS) codes that can correct insertion and deletion (ins-del) errors has been the focus of several recent studies. However, efficient decoding algorithms for such codes have received less attention and remain a…
We formulate the classical decoding algorithm of alternant codes afresh based on interpolation as in Sudan's list decoding of Reed-Solomon codes, and thus get rid of the key equation and the linear recurring sequences in the theory. The…
We prove the following results concerning the list decoding of error-correcting codes: (i) We show that for \textit{any} code with a relative distance of $\delta$ (over a large enough alphabet), the following result holds for \textit{random…
In this paper, a lemma in algebraic coding theory is established, which is frequently appeared in the encoding and decoding for algebraic codes such as Reed-Solomon codes and algebraic geometry codes. This lemma states that two vector…
We propose a slight modification of the Berlekamp-Massey Algorithm for obtaining the minimal polynomial of a given linearly recurrent sequence. Such a modification enables to explain it in a simpler way and to adapt it to lazy evaluation.
Let $\Sigma(f)$ be critical points of a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{K}[x,y]$ in the plane $\mathbb{K}^2$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. Our goal is to study the critical point map $\mathfrak{S}_d$, by sending polynomials…

A transform that enables generator-matrix-based Reed-Solomon (RS) coded data to be recovered under interpolation-based list decoding is presented. The transform matrix needs to be computed only once and the transformation of an element from…
List-decoding of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes beyond the so called Johnson radius has been one of the main open questions since the work of Guruswami and Sudan. It is now known by the work of Rudra and Wootters, using techniques from high…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field of characteristic zero and $\mathbb{K}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ the corresponding multivariate polynomial ring. Given a sequence of $s$ polynomials $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \dots, f_s)$ and a polynomial $\phi$, all in…
