Following the approach by R. K\"otter and F. R. Kschischang, we study network codes as families of k-dimensional linear subspaces of a vector space F_q^n, q being a prime power and F_q the finite field with q elements. In particular,…
Matrix-product codes over finite fields are an important class of long linear codes by combining several commensurate shorter linear codes with a defining matrix over finite fields. The construction of matrix-product codes with certain…
In this paper, we describe the properties of the $i$-components of Hamming codes. We suggest constructions of the admissible families of components of Hamming codes. It is shown that every $q$-ary code of length $m$ and minimum distance 5…
Answering an open question from 2007, we construct infinite $k$-crossing-critical families of graphs that contain vertices of any prescribed odd degree, for any sufficiently large~$k$. To answer this question, we introduce several…
One of the most important and challenging problems in coding theory is to construct codes with best possible parameters and properties. The class of quasi-cyclic (QC) codes is known to be fertile to produce such codes. Focusing on QC codes…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number, $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$ be a finite field of cardinality $p^m$ and $s$ a positive integer. Using some combinatorial identities, we obtain certain properties for Kronecker product of matrices over $\mathbb{F}_p$…

Generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes with arbitrary lengths over the ring $\mathbb{F}_{q}+u\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $u^2=0$, $q=p^n$, $n$ a positive integer and $p$ a prime number, are investigated. By the Chinese Remainder Theorem,…
Linear codes have been an interesting topic in both theory and practice for many years. In this paper, for an odd prime power $q$, we construct some class of linear code over finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with defining set be the preimage of…
An $(n,R)$-covering sequence is a cyclic sequence whose consecutive $n$-tuples form a code of length $n$ and covering radius $R$. Using several construction methods improvements of the upper bounds on the length of such sequences for $n…
In Cayley graphs on the additive group of a small vector space over GF$(q)$, $q=2,3$, we look for completely regular (CR) codes whose parameters are new in Hamming graphs over the same field. The existence of a CR code in such Cayley graph…
In coding theory, constructing codes with good parameters is one of the most important and fundamental problems. Though a great many of good codes have been produced, most of them are defined over alphabets of sizes equal to prime powers.…
The dual of the Kasami code of length $q^2-1$, with $q$ a power of $2$, is constructed by concatenating a cyclic MDS code of length $q+1$ over $F_q$ with a Simplex code of length $q-1$. This yields a new derivation of the weight…
An positive even number is said to be a Kronecker number if it can be written in infinitely many ways as the difference between two primes, and it is believed that all even numbers are Kronecker numbers. We will study the division and…
Kronecker products of unitary Fourier matrices play important role in solving multilevel circulant systems by a multidimensional Fast Fourier Transform. They are also special cases of complex Hadamard (Zeilinger) matrices arising in many…

One way to study the Kronecker coefficients is to focus on the Kronecker cone, which is generated by the triples of partitions corresponding to non-zero Kronecker coefficients. In this article we are interested in producing particular faces…
This paper presents a new explicit infinite family of 2-quasi-perfect $p$-ary Lee codes of length $\frac{q-1}{2}$ and dimension $\frac{q-1}{2}-2k$ for $q = p^k \ge 14$, $p\geq 5$ a prime. Our codes are derived from the generating set $H_q =…
For each odd prime power q, we construct an infinite sequence of rational functions f(X) in F_q(X), each of which is exceptional, which means that for infinitely many n the map c-->f(c) induces a bijection of P^1(F_{q^n}). Moreover, each of…
