About this paper

Eyal En Gad

The authors construct fixed-alphabet codes correcting up to t insertions, deletions, and substitutions with redundancy at most (2t−1)log_q n+O_t(log_q log_q n). For two binary deletions, the upper-bound coefficient is 3, down from 4, while the lower-bound coefficient is 2. Redundancy is measured in q-ary symbols. The probabilistic construction uses random linear hashes of substring counts; explicit construction and optimality remain open.
