We study uniquely decodable codes and list decodable codes in the high-noise regime, specifically codes that are uniquely decodable from $\frac{1-\varepsilon}{2}$ fraction of errors and list decodable from $1-\varepsilon$ fraction of…

Topological quantum codes are intrinsically fault-tolerant to local noise, and underlie the theory of topological phases of matter. We explore geometry to enhance the performance of topological quantum codes by rotating the four dimensional…

In this paper, the sphere bound (SB) is revisited within a general bounding framework based on nested Gallager regions. The equivalence is revealed between the SB proposed by Herzberg and Poltyrev and the SB proposed by Kasami et al.,…

Let $d, n \in \mathbb{Z}^+$ such that $1\leq d \leq n$. A $d$-code $\mathcal{C} \subset \mathbb{F}_q^{n \times n}$ is a subset of order $n$ square matrices with the property that for all pairs of distinct elements in $\mathcal{C}$, the rank…

Syndrome-based neural decoding (SBND) has emerged as a promising deep learning approach for soft-decision decoding of high-rate, short-length codes. However, this approach still has substantial room for improvement. In this paper, we show…

In this paper, we prove that with high probability, random Reed-Solomon codes approach the half-Singleton bound - the optimal rate versus error tradeoff for linear insdel codes - with linear-sized alphabets. More precisely, we prove that,…

In this paper, we presented three approaches to improve the design of Kite codes (newly proposed rateless codes), resulting in an ensemble of rate-compatible LDPC codes with code rates varying "continuously" from 0.1 to 0.9 for additive…

We describe a new parameterized family of symmetric error-correcting codes with low-density parity-check matrices (LDPC). Our codes can be described in two seemingly different ways. First, in relation to Reed-Muller codes: our codes are…
