Rank Two Bundles on Algebraic Curves and Decoding of Goppa Codes

Abstract

We study a connection between two topics: Decoding of Goppa codes arising from an algebraic curve, and rank two extensions of certain line bundles on the curve.

An error in (what is now called) Theorem 3.4 has been corrected
