We show that Reed-Solomon codes of dimension $k$ and block length $n$ over any finite field $\mathbb{F}$ can be deterministically list decoded from agreement $\sqrt{(k-1)n}$ in time $\text{poly}(n, \log |\mathbb{F}|)$. Prior to this work,…
We present a new general construction of MDS codes over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We describe two explicit subclasses which contain new MDS codes of length at least $q/2$ for all values of $q \ge 11$. Moreover, we show that most of the…
A linear code with parameters $[n, k, n-k+1]$ is called a maximum distance separable (MDS for short) code. A linear code with parameters $[n, k, n-k]$ is said to be almost maximum distance separable (AMDS for short). A linear code is said…
Reed-Solomon codes are a classic family of error-correcting codes consisting of evaluations of low-degree polynomials over a finite field on some sequence of distinct field elements. They are widely known for their optimal unique-decoding…
The problem of finding subfield subcodes of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes (i.e., alternant codes) is considered. A pure linear algebraic approach is taken in order to derive message constraints that generalize the well known…
The classical family of $[n,k]_q$ Reed-Solomon codes over a field $\F_q$ consist of the evaluations of polynomials $f \in \F_q[X]$ of degree $< k$ at $n$ distinct field elements. In this work, we consider a closely related family of codes,…

Reed-Muller codes encode an $m$-variate polynomial of degree $r$ by evaluating it on all points in $\{0,1\}^m$. We denote this code by $RM(m,r)$. The minimal distance of $RM(m,r)$ is $2^{m-r}$ and so it cannot correct more than half that…
Let $q=p^h$ be a prime power and $e$ be an integer with $0\leq e\leq h-1$. $e$-Galois self-orthogonal codes are generalizations of Euclidean self-orthogonal codes ($e=0$) and Hermitian self-orthogonal codes ($e=\frac{h}{2}$ and $h$ is…
Systematic constructions of MDS self-dual codes is widely concerned. In this paper, we consider the constructions of MDS Euclidean self-dual codes from short length. Indeed, the exact constructions of MDS Euclidean self-dual codes from…

Coding for distributed storage gives rise to a new set of problems in coding theory related to the need of reducing inter-node communication in the system. A large number of recent papers addressed the problem of optimizing the total amount…
This paper studies the parameters for which Reed-Muller (RM) codes over $GF(2)$ can correct random erasures and random errors with high probability, and in particular when can they achieve capacity for these two classical channels.…
