This paper studies codes that correct bursts of deletions. Namely, a code will be called a $b$-burst-deletion-correcting code if it can correct a deletion of any $b$ consecutive bits. While the lower bound on the redundancy of such codes…
In this work, we investigate the problem of constructing codes capable of correcting two deletions. In particular, we construct a code that requires redundancy approximately 8 log n + O(log log n) bits of redundancy, where n is the length…
In this paper we study error-correcting codes for the storage of data in synthetic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). We investigate a storage model where a data set is represented by an unordered set of $M$ sequences, each of length $L$. Errors…
An insdel refers to a deletion or an insertion, and an edit refers to an insdel or a substitution. In this paper, we consider the segmented single-insdel (resp. single-edit) channel, where the channel's input bit stream is partitioned into…
Consider a binary word being transmitted through a communication channel that introduces deletable errors where each bit of the word is either retained, flipped, erased or deleted. The simplest code for correcting \emph{all} possible…
Error-correcting codes are combinatorial objects designed to cope with the problem of reliable transmission of information on a noisy channel. A fundamental problem in coding theory and practice is to efficiently decode the received word…
Levenshtein introduced the problem of constructing $k$-deletion correcting codes in 1966, proved that the optimal redundancy of those codes is $O(k\log N)$, and proposed an optimal redundancy single-deletion correcting code (using the…
In this paper, we propose a partitioning technique that decomposes a pair of sequences with overlapping $t$-deletion $s$-substitution balls into sub-pairs, where the $^{\leq}t$-burst-deletion balls of each sub-pair intersect. This…
Consider two or more strings $\mathbf{x}^1,\mathbf{x}^2,\ldots,$ that are concatenated to form $\mathbf{x}=\langle \mathbf{x}^1,\mathbf{x}^2,\ldots \rangle$. Suppose that up to $\delta$ deletions occur in each of the concatenated strings.…
In this paper, we present an explicit construction of list-decodable codes for single-deletion and single-substitution with list size two and redundancy 3log n+4, where n is the block length of the code. Our construction has lower…
This paper presents conditions for constructing permutation-invariant quantum codes for deletion errors and provides a method for constructing them. Our codes give the first example of quantum codes that can correct two or more deletion…
In coding theory, handling errors that occur when symbols are inserted or deleted from a transmitted message is a long-standing challenge. Optimising redundancy for insertion and deletion channels remains a key open problem with significant…
Recently, locally repairable codes (LRCs) with local erasure correction constraints that are unequal and disjoint have been proposed. In this work, we study the same topic and provide some improved and additional results.
Regenerating codes allow distributed storage systems to recover from the loss of a storage node while transmitting the minimum possible amount of data across the network. We present a systematic computer search for optimal systematic…
In this work, we present a new version of non-binary VT codes that are capable of correcting a single deletion or single insertion. Moreover, we provide the first known linear time algorithms that encode user messages into these codes of…
Codes for correcting sticky insertions/deletions and limited-magnitude errors have attracted significant attention due to their applications of flash memories, racetrack memories, and DNA data storage systems. In this paper, we first…
We classify all binary error correcting completely regular codes of length $n$ with minimum distance $\delta>n/2$.
We study two basic problems regarding edit error, i.e. document exchange and error correcting codes for edit errors (insdel codes). For message length $n$ and edit error upper bound $k$, it is known that in both problems the optimal sketch…
We present a construction of 1-perfect binary codes, which gives a new lower bound on the number of such codes. We conjecture that this lower bound is asymptotically tight.
The noise model of deletions poses significant challenges in coding theory, with basic questions like the capacity of the binary deletion channel still being open. In this paper, we study the harder model of worst-case deletions, with a…
