Fast Decoding of Interleaved Linearized Reed-Solomon Codes and Va

We construct s-interleaved linearized Reed-Solomon (ILRS) codes and variants and propose efficient decoding schemes that can correct errors beyond the unique decoding radius in the sum-rank, sum-subspace and skew metric. The proposed interpolation-based scheme for ILRS codes can be used as a list decoder or as a probabilistic unique decoder that corrects errors of sum-rank up to t≤s/(s+1)(n−k), where s is the interleaving order, n the length and k the dimension of the code. Upper bounds on the list size and the decoding failure probability are given where the latter is based on a novel Loidreau-Overbeck-like decoder for ILRS codes. The results are extended to decoding of lifted interleaved linearized Reed-Solomon (LILRS) codes in the sum-subspace metric and interleaved skew Reed-Solomon (ISRS) codes in the skew metric. We generalize fast minimal approximant basis interpolation techniques to obtain efficient decoding schemes for ILRS codes (and variants) with subquadratic complexity in the code length. Up to our knowledge, the presented decoding schemes are the first being able to correct errors beyond the unique decoding region in the sum-rank, sum-subspace and skew metric. The results for the proposed decoding schemes are validated via Monte Carlo simulations
