Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are a class of codes designed for the local correction of erasures. They have received considerable attention in recent years due to their applications in distributed storage. Most existing results on LRCs do…
The classical way of extending an $[n, k, d]$ linear code $\C$ is to add an overall parity-check coordinate to each codeword of the linear code $\C$. This extended code, denoted by $\overline{\C}(-\bone)$ and called the standardly extended…
A projective linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is called $\Delta$-divisible if all weights of its codewords are divisible by $\Delta$. Especially, $q^r$-divisible projective linear codes, where $r$ is some integer, arise in many applications…
We prove that the class of $\Z_2\Z_2[u]$-linear codes is exactly the class of $\Z_2$-linear codes with automorphism group of even order. Using this characterization, we give examples of known codes, e.g. perfect codes, which has a…

A binary code of blocklength $n$ and codebook size $M$ is called an $(n,M)$ code, which is studied for memoryless binary symmetric channels (BSCs) with the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding. For any $n \geq 2$, some optimal codes among the…
A linear code with a complementary dual (or LCD code) is defined to be a linear code $C$ whose dual code $C^{\perp}$ satisfies $C \cap C^{\perp}$= $\left\{ \mathbf{0}\right\} $. Let $LCD{[}n,k{]}$ denote the maximum of possible values of…
In this paper, we consider the Reed-Muller (RM) codes. For the first order RM code, we prove that it is unique in the sense that any linear code with the same length, dimension and minimum distance must be the first order RM code; For the…
Determining the achievable rate region for networks using routing, linear coding, or non-linear coding is thought to be a difficult task in general, and few are known. We describe the achievable rate regions for four interesting networks…
In this work the construction of LRC codes given in [6] is completed, in the case of even characteristic. A general construction is presented, that enables us to obtain linear LRC codes of large length $n \approx q^4$, dimension and…
There are exactly two non-commutative rings of size $4$, namely, $E = \langle a, b ~\vert ~ 2a = 2b = 0, a^2 = a, b^2 = b, ab= a, ba = b\rangle$ and its opposite ring $F$. These rings are non-unital. A subset $D$ of $E^m$ is defined with…
In this paper, we introduce a new definitions of the Gray weight and the Gray map for linear codes over $\mathbb{Z}_9+u\mathbb{Z}_9$ with $u^2=u$. Some results on self-dual codes over this ring are investigated. Further, the structural…
The multiplicative-additive finite-field matrix channel arises as an adequate model for linear network coding systems when links are subject to errors and erasures, and both the network topology and the network code are unknown. In a…
In this paper, we have studied cyclic codes over the ring $R=\mathbb{Z}_4+u\mathbb{Z}_4$, $u^2=0$. We have considered cyclic codes of odd lengths. A sufficient condition for a cyclic code over $R$ to be a $\mathbb{Z}_4$-free module is…
A self-dual binary linear code is called Type I code if it has singly-even codewords, i.e.~it has codewords with weight divisible by $2.$ The purpose of this paper is to investigate interesting properties of Type I codes of different…
This paper deals with the problem of increasing the minimum distance of a linear code by adding one or more columns to the generator matrix. Several methods to compute extensions of linear codes are presented. Many codes improving the…
A linearized polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb F_{q^n}[x]$ is called scattered if for any $y,z\in\mathbb F_{q^n}$, the condition $zf(y)-yf(z)=0$ implies that $y$ and $z$ are $\mathbb F_{q}$-linearly dependent. In this paper two generalizations of…
Parallel fixed-parameter tractability studies how parameterized problems can be solved in parallel. A surprisingly large number of parameterized problems admit a high level of parallelization, but this does not mean that we can also…
In this paper, we explore a connection between binary hierarchical models, their marginal polytopes and codeword polytopes, the convex hulls of linear codes. The class of linear codes that are realizable by hierarchical models is…
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…
