Toric geometry provides a bridge between the theory of polytopes and algebraic geometry: one can associate to each lattice polytope a polarized toric variety. In this thesis we explore this correspondence to classify smooth lattice…
We study the minimum distance of codes defined on bipartite graphs. Weight spectrum and the minimum distance of a random ensemble of such codes are computed. It is shown that if the vertex codes have minimum distance $\ge 3$, the overall…
In this work we investigate unions of lifted MRD codes of a fixed dimension and minimum distance and derive an explicit formula for the cardinality of such codes. This will then imply a lower bound on the cardinality of constant dimension…
In this note, we apply some techniques developed in [1]-[3] to give a particular construction of bivariate Abelian Codes from cyclic codes, multiplying their dimension and preserving their apparent distance. We show that, in the case of…
The lattice size of a lattice polytope is a geometric invariant which was formally introduced in the context of simplification of the defining equation of an algebraic curve, but appeared implicitly earlier in geometric combinatorics.…
In this paper, two classes of quantum MDS codes are constructed. The main tools are multiplicative structures on finite fields. Carefully choosing different cosets can make the corresponding generalized Reed-Solomon codes Hermitian…
Reed Muller (RM) codes are known for their good minimum distance. One can use their structure to construct polar-like codes with good distance properties by choosing the information set as the rows of the polarization matrix with the…
Minimal codes are linear codes where all non-zero codewords are minimal, i.e., whose support is not properly contained in the support of another codeword. The minimum possible length of such a $k$-dimensional linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$…
We construct a distance on the moduli space of symplectic toric manifolds of dimension four. Then we study some basic topological properties of this space, in particular, path-connectedness, compactness, and completeness. The construction…
Multilevel lattice codes, such as those associated to Constructions $C$, $\overline{D}$, D and D', have relevant applications in communications. In this paper, we investigate some properties of lattices obtained via Constructions D and D'…
Twisted permutation codes, introduced recently by the second and third authors, are frequency permutation arrays. They are similar to repetition permutation codes, in that they are obtained by a repetition construction applied to a smaller…
Let K be a finite field with q elements and let X be a subset of a projective space P^{s-1}, over the field K, which is parameterized by Laurent monomials. Let I(X) be the vanishing ideal of X. Some of the main contributions of this paper…
We introduce two constructions of additive codes over finite fields. Both constructions start with a linear code over a field with $q$ elements and give additive codes over the field with $q^h$ elements whose minimum distance is…
Long linear codes constructed from toric varieties over finite fields, their multiplicative structure and decoding. The main theme is the inherent multiplicative structure on toric codes. The multiplicative structure allows for…
We compute the basic parameters (dimension, length, minimum distance) of affine evaluation codes defined on a cartesian product of finite sets. Given a sequence of positive integers, we construct an evaluation code, over a degenerate torus,…
Certain simplicial complexes are used to construct a subset $D$ of $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$ and $D$, in turn, defines the linear code $C_{D}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ that consists of $(v\cdot d)_{d\in D}$ for $v\in \mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$. Here we…
Let \({\mathbb K}\) be any field, let \(X\subset {\mathbb P}^{k-1}\) be a set of \(n\) distinct \({\mathbb K}\)-rational points, and let \(a\geq 1\) be an integer. In this paper we find lower bounds for the minimum distance \(d(X)_a\) of…
It is an important task to construct quantum maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes with good parameters. In the present paper, we provide six new classes of q-ary quantum MDS codes by using generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes and…
In this short survey we concern ourselves with minimal codes, a classical object in coding theory. We will explain the relation between minimal codes and various other mathematical domains, in particular with finite projective geometry.…
We propose a maximum toroidal distance (MTD) code for lattice-based public-key encryption (PKE). By formulating the encryption encoding problem as the selection of $2^\ell$ points in the discrete $\ell$-dimensional torus…
