On the existence of error-correcting pairs. (English) Zbl 0852.94025

Summary: Algebraic-geometric codes have a \(t\)-error-correcting pair which corrects errors up to half the designed minimum distance. A generalization of the Roos bound is given from cyclic to linear codes. An MDS code of minimum distance 5 has a 2-error-correcting pair if and only if it is an extended-generalized-Reed-Solomon code.
