Local-testability and self-correctability of q-ary sparse linear codes
2010
We prove that q-ary sparse codes with small bias are self-correctable and locally testable. We generalize a result of Kaufman and Sudan [3] that proves the local testability and correctability of binary sparse codes with small bias. We use properties of q-ary Krawtchouk polynomials and the McWilliams identity -that relates the weight distribution of a code to the weight distribution of its dual- to derive bounds on the error probability of the randomized tester and self-corrector we are analyzing.
