Binary Reed-Muller (RM) codes are defined via evaluations of Boolean-valued functions on $\mathbb{Z}_2^m$. We introduce a class of binary linear codes that generalizes the RM family by replacing the domain $\mathbb{Z}_2^m$ with an arbitrary…

A binary code with covering radius $R$ is a subset $C$ of the hypercube $Q_n=\{0,1\}^n$ such that every $x\in Q_n$ is within Hamming distance $R$ of some codeword $c\in C$, where $R$ is as small as possible. For a fixed coordinate…

Reed-Muller codes were introduced in 1954, with a simple explicit construction based on polynomial evaluations, and have long been conjectured to achieve Shannon capacity on symmetric channels. Major progress was made towards a proof over…

Let $W$ be a binary-input memoryless symmetric (BMS) channel with Shannon capacity $I(W)$ and fix any $\alpha > 0$. We construct, for any sufficiently small $\delta > 0$, binary linear codes of block length $O(1/\delta^{2+\alpha})$ and rate…

A framework of monomial codes is considered, which includes linear codes generated by the evaluation of certain monomials. Polar and Reed-Muller codes are the two best-known representatives of such codes and can be considered as two extreme…
