Abstract
A perfect code in a graph is a subset of such that no two vertices in are adjacent and every vertex in is adjacent to exactly one vertex in . A subgroup of a group is called a subgroup perfect code of if there exists a Cayley graph of which admits as a perfect code. In this work, we present a classification of cyclic 2-subgroup perfect codes in . We analyze these subgroup codes, detailing their structure and properties. We extend our discussion to various classes of subgroup codes in the symmetric group , encompassing both commutative and non-commutative cases. We provide numerous examples to illustrate and support our findings.
