Submissions claiming to resolve a grand challenge, such as the P vs. NP problem, may be rejected without further consideration.
Submissions containing an essential part that seems to be generated by AI tools and/or are written in a way that humans will find hard to understand, may be rejected regardless of their merits. ECCC is intended for communication among humans.
For more details see the Call for Papers.In the last few days, a Denial of Service attack was launched on universities in Israel, leading the administrators of the Israel Academic network to block access to it from the global internet. Consequently, websites such as ECCC have been accessible only from within the Israeli and European academic networks.
It seems that this blocking was just removed, and we hope it will not be put back in the future.
Needless to say, deciding on such blocking is not in our control, but we do apologize for this disruption of service.
We construct quantum locally testable codes (LTCs) with constant rate, distance, soundness and locality under a variant of a product expansion conjecture of Bafna and Vyas (2026) about Reed-Solomon codes. In particular, we use the high-dimensional expansion framework of Dinur, Lin and Vidick (2024) for constructing quantum LTCs, instantiated with ... more >>>
The Remote Point Problem (RPP) is an algorithmic problem that asks, given a linear subspace $L \subseteq \mathbb{F}^n$ of dimension $k$, to deterministically find a vector $v \in \mathbb{F}^n$ far in Hamming distance from $L$. This problem was introduced by Alon, Panigrahy and Yekhanin [APY09], motivated in part by the ... more >>>
Sipser and Spielman constructed LDPC codes from either bipartite \emph{spectral} expanders or one-sided \emph{lossless} expanders.
In higher dimensions, \emph{spectral} expansion similarly played a central role in the constructions of asymptotically good classical LTCs and qLDPC codes by Dinur, Evra, Livne, Lubotzky, and Mozes and by Panteleev and Kalachev.
