  • Abstract
    The problem of decreasing the length function of two complete prefix countable codes proposed by Levenshtein (1968) is considered. A new recursive construction is presented which solves this problem in an asymptotic sense. The length function of prefix countable codes having a non-error propagation property is also investigated
