The problem of coding for networks experiencing worst-case symbol errors is considered. We argue that this is a reasonable model for highly dynamic wireless network transmissions. We demonstrate that in this setup prior network…

The explosion in the volumes of data being stored online has resulted in distributed storage systems transitioning to erasure coding based schemes. Yet, the codes being deployed in practice are fairly short. In this work, we address what we…

An $(r, \delta)$-locally repairable code ($(r, \delta)$-LRC for short) was introduced by Prakash et al. \cite{Prakash2012} for tolerating multiple failed nodes in distributed storage systems, which was a generalization of the concept of…

By a locally recoverable code (LRC), we will in this paper, mean a linear code in which a given code symbol can be recovered by taking a linear combination of at most $r$ other code symbols with $r << k$. A natural extension is to the local…

Error-correcting codes and related combinatorial constructs play an important role in several recent (and old) results in computational complexity theory. In this paper we survey results on locally-testable and locally-decodable…

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…

We complete the building-up construction for self-dual codes by resolving the open cases over $GF(q)$ with $q \equiv 3 \pmod 4$, and over $\Z_{p^m}$ and Galois rings $\GR(p^m,r)$ with an odd prime $p$ satisfying $p \equiv 3 \pmod 4$ with…

We introduce a family of balanced locally repairable codes (BLRCs) $[n, k, d]$ for arbitrary values of $n$, $k$ and $d$. Similar to other locally repairable codes (LRCs), the presented codes are suitable for applications that require a low…

We construct the first asymptotically good relaxed locally correctable codes with polylogarithmic query complexity, bringing the upper bound polynomially close to the lower bound of Gur and Lachish (SICOMP 2021). Our result follows from…
