I will describe a recent work that uses so-called “double-samplers” for list decoding.

Double samplers are multi-layered graphs that are derived from high dimensional expanders, and whose existence is quite non-trivial.

The talk will be flexible depending on the audience preference I can expand on the coding application or on the double samplers themselves.
