A Locally Recoverable Code is a code such that the value of any single coordinate of a codeword can be recovered from the values of a small subset of other coordinates. When we have $\delta$ non overlapping subsets of cardinality $r_i$ that…
Locally repairable codes are desirable for distributed storage systems to improve the repair efficiency. In this paper, we first build a bridge between locally repairable code and packing. As an application of this bridge, some optimal…
We consider locally recoverable codes (LRCs) and aim to determine the smallest possible length $n=n_q(k,d,r)$ of a linear $[n,k,d]_q$-code with locality $r$. For $k\le 7$ we exactly determine all values of $n_2(k,d,2)$ and for $k\le 6$ we…
In this paper we give constructions for infinite sequences of finite non-linear locally recoverable codes $\mathcal C\subseteq \prod\limits^N_{i=1}\mathbb F_{q_i}$ over a product of finite fields arising from basis expansions in algebraic…
We generalize a construction of non-binary quantum LDPC codes over $\F_{2^m}$ due to \cite{KHIS11a} and apply it in particular to toric codes. We obtain in this way not only codes with better rates than toric codes but also improve…
Regenerating codes and codes with locality are two schemes that have recently been proposed to ensure data collection and reliability in a distributed storage network. In a situation where one is attempting to repair a failed node,…
In a world where Quantum Networks are rapidly becoming a reality, the development of the Quantum Internet is gaining increasing interest. Nevertheless, modern quantum networks are still in the early stages of development and have limited…
We present simple constructions of optimal erasure-correcting LRC codes by exhibiting their parity-check matrices. When the number of local parities in a parity group plus the number of global parities is smaller than the size of the parity…
In this paper, locally repairable codes with all-symbol locality are studied. Methods to modify already existing codes are presented. Also, it is shown that with high probability, a random matrix with a few extra columns guaranteeing the…
We describe the theory of quantum convolutional error correcting codes. These codes are aimed at protecting a flow of quantum information over long distance communication. They are largely inspired by their classical analogs which are used…
We show that within any quantum stabilizer code there lurks a classical binary linear code with similar error-correcting capabilities, thereby demonstrating new connections between quantum codes and classical codes. Using this result --…
We address the problems of constructing quantum convolutional codes (QCCs) and of encoding them. The first construction is a CSS-type construction which allows us to find QCCs of rate 2/4. The second construction yields a quantum…
In this work codes with availability are constructed based on the cyclic \emph{locally repairable code} (LRC) construction by Tamo et al. and their extension to $(r,\rho)$-locality by Chen et al. The minimum distance of these codes is…
A macroscopic energy barrier is a necessary condition for self-correcting quantum memory. In this paper, we prove tight bounds on the energy barrier applicable to any quantum code obtained from the hypergraph product of two classical codes.…
Optimal locally repairable codes with information locality are considered. Optimal codes are constructed, whose length is also order-optimal with respect to a new bound on the code length derived in this paper. The length of the constructed…
We prove that certain classical cyclic redundancy check codes can be used for classical error correction and not just classical error detection. We extend the idea of classical cyclic redundancy check codes to quantum cyclic redundancy…
Quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes are an important component in the quest for quantum fault tolerance. Dramatic recent progress on qLDPC codes has led to constructions which are asymptotically good, and which admit linear-time…
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…
The rapid progress of computer technology has been accompanied by a corresponding evolution of software development, from hardwired components and binary machine code to high level programming languages, which allowed to master the…
We survey the existing techniques for calculating code distances of classical codes and apply these techniques to generic quantum codes. For classical and quantum LDPC codes, we also present a new linked-cluster technique. It reduces…
