On Decoding and Applications of Interleaved Goppa Codes

Goppa Codes are a well-known class of codes with, among others, applications in code-based cryptography. In this paper, we present a collaborative decoding algorithm for interleaved Goppa codes (IGC). Collaborative decoding increases the decoding radius beyond half of the designed minimum distance. We consider wild Goppa codes and show that we can collaboratively correct more errors for binary Goppa codes than the Patterson decoder. We propose a modified version of the McEliece cryptosystem using wild IGC based on a recently proposed system by Elleuch et al., analyze attacks on the system and present some parameters with the corresponding key sizes.

Locality in Crisscross Error Correction

The cover metric is suitable for describing the resilience against correlated errors in arrays, in particular crisscross errors, which makes it interesting for applications such as distributed data storage (DDS). In this work, we consider codes designed for the cover metric that have locality, that means lost symbols can be recovered by using only a few other (local) symbols. We derive and prove a Singleton-like bound on the minimum cover distance of cover-metric codes with locality and propose a bound-achieving construction. Further, we explore the performance of our construction in comparison to a known construction based on rank-metric codes.
