We investigate small weight code words of the $p$-ary linear code $\mathcal C_{j,k}(n,q)$ generated by the incidence matrix of $k$-spaces and $j$-spaces of PG$(n,q)$ and its dual, with $q$ a prime power and $0 \leq j < k < n$. Firstly, we…

For $(n,d)= (66,17),(78,19)$ and $(94,21)$, we construct quantum $[[n,0,d]]$ codes which improve the previously known lower bounds on the largest minimum weights among quantum codes with these parameters. These codes are constructed from…
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…

We present new constructions of binary quantum codes from quaternary linear Hermitian self-dual codes. Our main ingredients for these constructions are nearly self-orthogonal cyclic or duadic codes over F_4. An infinite family of…
Many $q$-ary stabilizer quantum codes can be constructed from Hermitian self-orthogonal $q^2$-ary linear codes. This result can be generalized to $q^{2 m}$-ary linear codes, $m > 1$. We give a result for easily obtaining quantum codes from…
Duadic codes are a class of cyclic codes that generalizes quadratic residue codes from prime to composite lengths. For every prime power q, we characterize the integers n such that over the finite field with q^2 elements there is a duadic…
In this note, we consider the problem of counting and verifying abelian border arrays of binary words. We show that the number of valid abelian border arrays of length \(n\) is \(2^{n-1}\). We also show that verifying whether a given array…

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…
