520 ▼a The codewords of the homomorphism code aHom( G,H) are the affine homomorphisms between two finite groups, G and H, generalizing Hadamard codes. Following the work of Goldreich--Levin (1989), Grigorescu et al. (2006), Dinur et al. (2008), and G
520 ▼a Our main result is efficient local list-decoding for the permutation representations of alternating groups (i.e., when the codomain is a symmetric group Sm) under the restriction that the domain G=An is paired with codomain H=Sm satisfying m <
520 ▼a The limitations on the codomain in the latter case reflect a gap between uniquely identifying a homomorphism in aHom(An, H) and determining the homomorphism on generators of the whole group. This phenomenon is new and is sure to appear again for
520 ▼a For this reason, we introduce an intermediate algorithmic model we call Certificate List-Decoding that avoids the HomExt bottleneck and works in the alternating versus arbitrary setting.
520 ▼a Our new combinatorial tools allow us to play on the relatively well-understood top layers of the subgroup lattice of the domain, avoiding the dependence on the codomain, a bottleneck in previous work. We also introduce ``mean-list-decoding,'' a
520 ▼a While motivated by bridging the mentioned gap in list-decoding, HomExt is also of independent interest, both as a problem in computational group theory and as a new and natural problem in NP of unsettled complexity status.
520 ▼a We consider the case H=Sm (the symmetric group of degree m), i.e., gamma : G &rarr
520 ▼a We are most concerned with the case G=A n (the alternating group of degree n) for variable n under the assumption that the index of M in G is bounded by poly(n). We solve this case in polynomial time for all m < 2n-1/"the square root of" n. This
