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…
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…
This paper gives lower and upper bounds on the covering radius of codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^2}$ with respect to Lee distance. We also determine the covering radius of various Repetition codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^2}.$
It is reasonable to expect the theory of quantum codes to be simplified in the case of codes of minimum distance 2; thus, it makes sense to examine such codes in the hopes that techniques that prove effective there will generalize. With…
The main results of this paper are twofold: the first one is a matrix theoretical result. We say that a matriz is superregular if all of its minors that are not trivially zero are nonzero. Given a a times b, a larger than or equal to b,…
Cyclic codes are an important subclass of linear codes and have wide applications in data storage systems, communication systems and consumer electronics. In this paper, two families of optimal ternary cyclic codes are presented. The first…
The binary Hamming codes with parameters $[2^m-1, 2^m-1-m, 3]$ are perfect. Their extended codes have parameters $[2^m, 2^m-1-m, 4]$ and are distance-optimal. The first objective of this paper is to construct a class of binary linear codes…
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…
A code $C$ in the Hamming metric, that is, is a subset of the vertex set $V\varGamma$ of the Hamming graph $\varGamma=H(m,q)$, gives rise to a natural distance partition $\{C,C_1,\ldots,C_\rho\}$, where $\rho$ is the covering radius of $C$.…
A characterization of a class of optimal three-weight cyclic codes of dimension 3 over any finite field was recently presented in [10]. Shortly after this, a generalization for the sufficient numerical conditions of such characterization…
MDS codes have diverse practical applications in communication systems, data storage, and quantum codes due to their algebraic properties and optimal error-correcting capability. In this paper, we focus on a class of linear codes and…
The covering radius problem is a question in coding theory concerned with finding the minimum radius $r$ such that, given a code that is a subset of an underlying metric space, balls of radius $r$ over its code words cover the entire metric…
A covering code is a subset $\mathcal{C} \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ with the property that any $z \in \{0,1\}^n$ is close to some $c \in \mathcal{C}$ in Hamming distance. For every $\epsilon,\delta>0$, we show a construction of a family of codes…
In an $[n,k,d]$ linear code, a code symbol is said to have locality $r$ if it can be repaired by accessing at most $r$ other code symbols. For an $(n,k,r)$ \emph{locally repairable code} (LRC), the minimum distance satisfies the well-known…
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…
We generalize to any q a theorem about covering radius of linear codes proved by Helleseth, Klove and Mykkelvit. Then we determine the covering radius of first order generalized Reed-Muller codes in second order generalized Reed-Muller…
We construct new families of completely regular codes by concatenation methods. By combining parity check matrices of cyclic Hamming codes, we obtain families of completely regular codes. In all cases, we compute the intersection array of…
MRD codes are maximum codes in the rank-distance metric space on $m$-by-$n$ matrices over the finite field of order $q$. They are diameter perfect and have the cardinality $q^{m(n-d+1)}$ if $m\ge n$. We define switching in MRD codes as…
The local theory of regular or multi-regular systems aims at finding sufficient local conditions for a Delone set $X$ to be a regular or multi-regular system. One of the main goals is to estimate the regularity radius $\hat{\rho}_d$ for…
An $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear code of minimum distance $d$ is called complete if it is not contained in a larger $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear code of minimum distance $d$. In this paper, we classify $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear complete symmetric…
