Random classical linear codes are widely believed to be hard to decode. While slightly sub-exponential time algorithms exist when the coding rate vanishes sufficiently rapidly, all known algorithms at constant rate require exponential time.…

In this paper we show how the complexity of Linear Programming (LP) decoder can decrease. We use the degree 3 check equation to model all variation check degrees. The complexity of LP decoding is directed relative to the number of…
