In this paper, we present a construction of linear codes over $\f_{2^t}$ from Boolean functions, which is a generalization of Ding's method \cite[Theorem 9]{Ding15}. Based on this construction, we give two classes of linear codes…

We study biplane graphs drawn on a finite planar point set $S$ in general position. This is the family of geometric graphs whose vertex set is $S$ and can be decomposed into two plane graphs. We show that two maximal biplane graphs---in the…

In this paper, we first introduce the notion of generalized pair weights of an $[n, k]$-linear code over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and the notion of pair $r$-equiweight codes, where $1\le r\le k-1$. Some basic properties of…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a quasi-cyclic code of index $l(l\geq2)$. Let $G$ be the subgroup of the automorphism group of $\mathcal{C}$ generated by $\rho^l$ and the scalar multiplications of $\mathcal{C}$, where $\rho$ denotes the standard…

A set $C$ of vertices of a simple graph is called a completely regular code if for each $i=0$, $1$, $2$, \ldots and $j = i-1$, $i$, $i+1$, all vertices at distance $i$ from $C$ have the same number $s_{ij}$ of neighbors at distance $j$ from…

In this paper, based on the theory of defining sets, two classes of five-weight or six-weight linear codes over Fp are constructed. The weight distributions of the linear codes are determined by means of Weil sums and a new type of…

In this paper, several infinite families of codes over the extension of non-unital non-commutative rings are constructed utilizing general simplicial complexes. Thanks to the special structure of the defining sets, the principal parameters…

Let $F_q$ be a finite field. A flag of $F_q$-linear codes $C_0\subsetneq C_1\subsetneq\dots\subsetneq C_s$ is said to satisfy the isometry-dual property if there exists a vector $x\in(F_q^*)^n$ such that $C_i=x\cdot C_{s-i}^\perp$, where…

A systematic way of constructing Grassmannian codes endowed with the subspace distance as lifts of matrix codes over the prime field $GF(p)$ is introduced. The matrix codes are $GF(p)$-subspaces of the ring $M_2(GF(p))$ of $2 \times 2$…

In this paper we investigate connections between linear sets and subspaces of linear maps. We give a geometric interpretation of the results of [18, Section 5] on linear sets on a projective line. We extend this to linear sets in arbitrary…

A finite collection of unit vectors $S \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is called a spherical two-distance set if there are two numbers $a$ and $b$ such that the inner products of distinct vectors from $S$ are either $a$ or $b$. We prove that if $a\ne…

We provide a geometric characterization of $k$-dimensional $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$-linear sum-rank metric codes as tuples of $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^k$. We then use this characterization to study one-weight codes in the…

Let PG$(\mathbb{F}_q^v)$ be the $(v-1)$-dimensional projective space over $\mathbb{F}_q$ and let $\Gamma$ be a simple graph of order ${q^k-1\over q-1}$ for some $k$. A 2$-(v,\Gamma,\lambda)$ design over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a collection $\cal…

A graph is universally $k$-edge-weightable if for every $k$-element set $Q\subset\mathbb{R}$, it admits a proper $Q$-edge weighting. The settled 1-2-3 conjecture implies that for any arithmetic progression $\{a,b,c\}$, every nice regular…

We prove that if a framework of a graph is neighborhood affine rigid in $d$-dimensions (or has the stronger property of having an equilibrium stress matrix of rank $n-d-1$) then it has an affine flex (an affine, but non Euclidean, transform…

The real monomial representations of Clifford algebras give rise to two sequences of bent functions. For each of these sequences, the corresponding Cayley graphs are strongly regular graphs, and the corresponding sequences of strongly…

The values of the normalized homogeneous weight are determined for arbitrary finite Frobenius rings and expressed in a form that is independent from a generating character and the M\"obius function on the ring. The weight naturally induces…

Let $X$ be a smooth proper genus 2 curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. The absolute Frobenius induces a rational map $F$ on the the moduli space $M\_X$ of semi-stable rank 2 vector bundles over $X$, which is…

The demand of two-dimensional source coding and constrained coding has been getting higher these days, but compared to the one-dimensional case, many problems have remained open as the analysis is cumbersome. A main reason for that would be…

We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
