Improved constructions of permutation and multi-permutation codes correcting a burst of stable deletions
share
Permutation codes and multi-permutation codes have been widely considered due to their various applications, especially in flash memory. In this paper, we consider permutation codes and multi-permutation codes against a burst of stable deletions. In particular, we propose a construction of permutation codes correcting a burst stable deletion of length s, with redundancy log n + 2 loglog n + O(1). Compared to the previous known results, our improvement relies on a different strategy to retrieve the missing symbol on the first row of the array representation of a permutation. We also generalize our constructions for multi-permutations and the variable length burst model.
