Quantum stabilizer codes face the problem of low coding rate. In this article, following the idea of recursively expanding Tanner graph proposed in our previous work, we try to construct new stabilizer codes with high coding rate, and…

We describe a new class of list decodable codes based on Galois extensions of function fields and present a list decoding algorithm. These codes are obtained as a result of folding the set of rational places of a function field using…

We give new constructions of two classes of algebraic code families which are efficiently list decodable with small output list size from a fraction $1-R-\epsilon$ of adversarial errors where $R$ is the rate of the code, for any desired…

Optimal constructions of classical LDPC codes can be obtained by choosing the Tanner graph uniformly at random among biregular graphs. We introduce a class of codes that we call ``diffusion codes'', defined by placing each edge connecting…

Let $n$ be a prime power, $r$ be a prime with $r\mid n-1$, and $\varepsilon\in (0,1/2)$. Using the theory of multiplicative character sums and superelliptic curves, we construct new codes over $\mathbb F_r$ having length $n$, relative…

We study the classical expander codes, introduced by Sipser and Spielman \cite{SS96}. Given any constants $0< \alpha, \varepsilon < 1/2$, and an arbitrary bipartite graph with $N$ vertices on the left, $M < N$ vertices on the right, and…

The decoding error probability of codes is studied as a function of their block length. It is shown that the existence of codes with a polynomially small decoding error probability implies the existence of codes with an exponentially small…

Raptor code ensembles with linear random outer codes in a fixed-rate setting are considered. An expression for the average distance spectrum is derived and this expression is used to obtain the asymptotic exponent of the weight…

Lifted Reed-Solomon codes, a subclass of lifted affine-invariant codes, have been shown to be of high rate while preserving locality properties similar to generalized Reed-Muller codes, which they contain as subcodes. This work introduces a…

In coding theory, a common question is to understand the threshold rates of various local properties of codes, such as their list decodability and list recoverability. A recent work Levi, Mosheiff, and Shagrithaya (FOCS 2025) gave a novel…

We give a new lower bound on the expansion coefficient of an edge-vertex graph of a $d$-regular graph. As a consequence, we obtain an improvement on the lower bound on relative minimum distance of the expander codes constructed by Sipser…

Folded Reed-Solomon (FRS) codes are variants of Reed-Solomon codes, known for their optimal list decoding radius. We show explicit FRS codes with rate $R$ that can be list decoded up to radius $1-R-\epsilon$ with lists of size…

In the noisy $k$-XOR problem, one is given $y \in \mathbb{F}_2^M$ and must distinguish between $y$ uniform and $y = A x + e$, where $A$ is the adjacency matrix of a $k$-left-regular bipartite graph with $N$ variables and $M$ constraints,…

A locally repairable code with availability has the property that every code symbol can be recovered from multiple, disjoint subsets of other symbols of small size. In particular, a code symbol is said to have $(r,t)$-availability if it can…
