Lifted Reed Solomon Codes (Guo, Kopparty, Sudan 2013) were introduced in the context of locally correctable and testable codes. They are multivariate polynomials whose restriction to any line is a codeword of a Reed-Solomon code. We…

New soft- and hard decision decoding algorithms are presented for general Reed-Muller codes $\left\{\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{m}{r}\right\} $ of length $2^{m}$ and distance $2^{m-r}$. We use Plotkin $(u,u+v)$ construction and decompose code…

We consider a large-scale matrix multiplication problem where the computation is carried out using a distributed system with a master node and multiple worker nodes, where each worker can store parts of the input matrices. We propose a…

Error-correcting codes are one of the most fundamental objects in pseudorandomness, with applications in communication, complexity theory, and beyond. Codes are useful because of their ability to support decoding, which is the task of…

We show that the known list-decoding algorithms for univariate multiplicity and folded Reed-Solomon codes can be made to run in $\tilde{O}(n)$ time. Univariate multiplicity codes and FRS codes are natural variants of Reed-Solomon codes that…

We define multilevel codes on bipartite graphs that have properties analogous to multilevel serial concatenations. A decoding algorithm is described that corrects a proportion of errors equal to half the Blokh-Zyablov bound on the minimum…

In [4] we describe a variation of the classical permutation decoding algorithm that can be applied to any binary affine-invariant code; in particular, it can be applied to first-order Reed-Muller codes successfully. In this paper we study…

A list decoding algorithm for matrix-product codes is provided when $C_1,..., C_s$ are nested linear codes and $A$ is a non-singular by columns matrix. We estimate the probability of getting more than one codeword as output when the…
