Let $q=p^\alpha$ be a fixed prime power, $k\geq 2$ be an integer. We give a new upper bound for the size of $k$-wise $q$-modular $L$-avoiding $L$-intersecting set systems, where $L$ is any proper subset of $\{0, \ldots , q-1\}$. Our proof…

One of the most fundamental topics in subspace coding is to explore the maximal possible value ${\bf A}_q(n,d,k)$ of a set of $k$-dimensional subspaces in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ such that the subspace distance satisfies $\operatorname{d_S}(U,V) =…

The rigorous theoretical analysis of the algorithm for a subclass of QSAT, i.e. (1, 2)-QSAT, has been proposed in the literature. (1, 2)-QSAT, first introduced in SAT'08, can be seen as quantified extended 2-CNF formulas. Until now, within…
Let $n_q(M,d)$ be the minimum length of a $q$-ary code of size $M$ and minimum distance $d$. Bounding $n_q(M,d)$ is a fundamental problem that lies at the heart of coding theory. This work considers a generalization $n^\bx_q(M,d)$ of…
For prime powers q<100, we compute new upper and lower bounds on N_q(4), the maximal number of points on a genus-4 curve over a finite field with q elements. We determine the exact value of N_q(4) for 17 prime powers q for which the value…
