A Maximum Distance Separable code over an alphabet $F$ is defined via an encoding function $C:F^k rightarrow F^n$ that allows to retrieve a message $m in F^k$ from the codeword $C(m)$ even after erasing any $n-k$ of its symbols. The minimum possible alphabet size of general (non-linear) MDS codes for given parameters $n$ and $k$ is unknown and forms one of the central open problems in coding theory. The paper initiates the study of the alphabet size of codes in a generalized setting where the coding scheme is required to handle a pre-specified subset of all possible erasure patterns, naturally represented by an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph. We relate the minimum possible alphabet size of such codes to the strong chromatic number of the hypergraph and analyze the tightness of the obtained bounds for both the linear and non-linear settings. We further consider variations of the problem which allow a small probability of decoding error.
This paper focuses on error-correcting codes that can handle a predefined set of specific error patterns. The need for such codes arises in many settings of practical interest, including wireless communication and flash memory systems. In many such s
The multiplicity Schwartz-Zippel lemma bounds the total multiplicity of zeroes of a multivariate polynomial on a product set. This lemma motivates the multiplicity codes of Kopparty, Saraf and Yekhanin [J. ACM, 2014], who showed how to use this lemma
We address the problem of decoding Gabidulin codes beyond their unique error-correction radius. The complexity of this problem is of importance to assess the security of some rank-metric code-based cryptosystems. We propose an approach that introduce
Few decoding algorithms for hyperbolic codes are known in the literature, this article tries to fill this gap. The first part of this work compares hyperbolic codes and Reed-Muller codes. In particular, we determine when a Reed-Muller code is a hyper
Locally recoverable (LRC) codes have recently been a focus point of research in coding theory due to their theoretical appeal and applications in distributed storage systems. In an LRC code, any erased symbol of a codeword can be recovered by accessi
