In this paper we deal with two aspects of the minimum rank of a simple undirected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices over a finite field $\FF_q$ with $q$ elements, which is denoted by $\mr(\FF_q,G)$. In the first part of this paper we show that the…

The index coding problem includes a server, a group of clients, and a set of data chunks. While each client wants a subset of the data chunks and already has another subset as its side information, the server transmits some uncoded data…

Minimal codewords have applications in decoding linear codes and in cryptography. We study the number of minimal codewords in binary linear codes that arise by appending a unit matrix to the adjacency matrix of a graph.

We study the index coding problem in the presence of an eavesdropper, where the aim is to communicate without allowing the eavesdropper to learn any single message aside from the messages it may already know as side information. We…

In this paper, we consider the unit graph $G(\mathbb{Z}_{n})$, where $n=p_{1}^{n_{1}} \text{ or } p_{1}^{n_{1}}p_{2}^{n_{2}} \text{ or } p_{1}^{n_{1}}p_{2}^{n_{2}}p_{3}^{n_{3}}$ and $p_{1}, p_{2}, p_{3}$ are distinct primes. For any prime…

Let $C$ be a linear code of length $n$ and dimension $k$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$. The trace code $\mathrm{Tr}(C)$ is a linear code of the same length $n$ over the subfield $\mathbb{F}_q$. The obvious upper bound for the…

It is well-known that, given a probability distribution over $n$ characters, in the worst case it takes (\Theta (n \log n)) bits to store a prefix code with minimum expected codeword length. However, in this paper we first show that, for…
