The new economic geography literature provides a general equilibrium framework that explains the emergence of economic agglomerations as a trade-off between increasing returns at...
For every 0 < R < 1 and > 0, we present an explicit construction of error-correcting codes of rate R that can be list decoded in polynomial time up to a fraction (1 - R ...
