Toric surface codes are a class of error-correcting codes coming from a lattice polytope defining a two-dimensional toric variety. Previous authors have mostly completed classifications of these toric surface codes with dimension up to $k =…

Let $X$ be a complete simplicial toric variety over a finite field with a split torus $T_X$. For any matrix $Q$, we are interested in the subgroup $Y_Q$ of $T_X$ parameterized by the columns of $Q$. We give an algorithm for obtaining a…
We generalize a construction of non-binary quantum LDPC codes over $\F_{2^m}$ due to \cite{KHIS11a} and apply it in particular to toric codes. We obtain in this way not only codes with better rates than toric codes but also improve…
Products of MDS codes are of major practical importance; for a recent example, they are used in Data Availability Sampling (DAS) in blockchain networks such as Celestia and as part of the Ethereum roadmap. This motivates us to consider…
In an interesting paper Professor Cunsheng Ding provided three constructions of cyclic codes of length being a product of two primes. Numerical data shows that many codes from these constructions are best cyclic codes of the same length and…
In this paper we study the family of cyclic codes such that its minimum distance reaches the maximum of its BCH bounds. We also show a way to construct cyclic codes with that property by means of computations of some divisors of a…
The goal of this paper is to design a simplex algorithm for linear programs on lattice polytopes that traces `short' simplex paths from any given vertex to an optimal one. We consider a lattice polytope $P$ contained in $[0,k]^n$ and…
A toric code, introduced by Hansen to extend the Reed-Solomon code as a $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$, is determined by a toric variety or its associated integral convex polytope $P \subseteq [0,q-2]^n$, where $k=|P \cap…
The h^*-polynomial of a lattice polytope is the numerator of the generating function of the Ehrhart polynomial. Let P be a lattice polytope with h^*-polynomial of degree d and with linear coefficient h^*_1. We show that P has to be a…
Cyclic codes are an important class of linear codes. Bounding the minimum distance of cyclic codes is a long-standing research topic in coding theory, and several well-known and basic results have been developed on this topic. Recently,…
This paper is a general survey of literature on Goppa-type codes from higher dimensional algebraic varieties. The construction and several techniques for estimating the minimum distance are described first. Codes from various classes of…
The extension complexity of a polytope measures its amenability to succinct representations via lifts. There are several versions of extension complexity, including linear, real semidefinite, and complex semidefinite. We focus on the last…
In this work, we will show how the topological order of the Toric Code appears when the lattice on which it is defined discretizes a three-dimensional torus. In order to do this, we will present a pedagogical review of the traditional…
We introduce in this article a new method to estimate the minimum distance of codes from algebraic surfaces. This lower bound is generic, i.e. can be applied to any surface, and turns out to be ``liftable'' under finite morphisms, paving…
In this paper we develop a technique to extend any bound for the minimum distance of cyclic codes constructed from its defining sets (ds-bounds) to abelian (or multivariate) codes through the notion of $\mathbb{B}$-apparent distance. We use…
It is shown that the smallest possible distance between two disjoint lattice polytopes contained in the cube $[0,k]^3$ is exactly $$ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2(2k^2-4k+5)(2k^2-2k+1)}} $$ for every integer $k$ at least $4$. The proof relies on…
