Sub-quadratic Decoding of One-point Hermitian Codes
We present the first two sub-quadratic complexity decoding algorithms for
one-point Hermitian codes. The first is based on a fast realisation of the
Guruswami-Sudan algorithm by using state-of-the-art algorithms from computer
algebra for polynomial-ring matrix minimisation. The second is a Power decoding
algorithm: an extension of classical key equation decoding which gives a
probabilistic decoding algorithm up to the Sudan radius. We show how the
resulting key equations can be solved by the same methods from computer
algebra, yielding similar asymptotic complexities.Comment: New version includes simulation results, improves some complexity
results, as well as a number of reviewer corrections. 20 page
