Efficient Decoding of Double-circulant and Wozencraft Codes from Square-root Errors
We present efficient decoding algorithms from square-root errors for two known families of double-circulant codes: A construction based on Sidon sets (Bhargava, Taveres, and Shiva, \emph{IEEE IT 74}; Calderbank, \emph{IEEE IT 83}; Guruswami and Li, \emph{IEEE IT 2025}), and a construction based on cyclic codes (Chen, Peterson, and Weldon, \emph{Information and Control 1969}). We further observe that the work of Guruswami and Li implicitly gives a transformation from double-circulant codes of ce…

I am somewhat surprised to learn (assuming the newly updated wiki is correct) that this is the first time the USA used this giant bomb.
"The GBU-57 weapon was first used in combat on June 22, 2025 during the American strikes on Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan."
