The notion of code sparsification was introduced by Khanna, Putterman and Sudan (arxiv.2311.00788), as an analogue to the the more established notion of cut sparsification in graphs and hypergraphs. In particular, for $\alpha\in (0,1)$ an…

An $s{\operatorname{-}}t$ minimum cut in a graph corresponds to a minimum weight subset of edges whose removal disconnects vertices $s$ and $t$. Finding such a cut is a classic problem that is dual to that of finding a maximum flow from $s$…
