The analysis of random coding error exponents pertaining to erasure/list decoding, due to Forney, is revisited. Instead of using Jensen’s inequality as well as some other inequa...
McEliece is one of the oldest known public key cryptosystems, however it was not quite as successful as RSA. One main reason is that it is widely believed that code-based cryptosy...
For every 0 < R < 1 and > 0, we present an explicit construction of error-correcting codes of rate R that can be list decoded in polynomial time up to a fraction (1 - R ...
We prove that binary linear concatenated codes with an outer algebraic code (specifically, a folded Reed-Solomon code) and independently and randomly chosen linear inner codes ach...
