Abstract
This paper is concerned with the construction of algebraic geometric codes defined from Kummer extensions. It plays a significant role in the study of such codes to describe bases for the Riemann-Roch spaces associated with totally ramified places. Along this line, we give an explicit characterization of Weierstrass semigroups and pure gaps. Additionally, we determine the floor of a certain type of divisor introduced by Maharaj, Matthews and Pirsic. Finally, we apply these results to find multi-point codes with good parameters. As one of the examples, a presented code with parameters over yields a new record.
