In this paper we study evaluation codes arising from plane quotients of the Hermitian curve, defined by affine equations of the form $y^q+y=x^m$, $q$ being a prime power and $m$ a positive integer which divides $q+1$. The dual minimum…
In this article, the minimum distance of the dual $C^{\bot}$ of a functional code $C$ on an arbitrary dimensional variety $X$ over a finite field $\F_q$ is studied. The approach consists in finding minimal configurations of points on $X$…
We prove a new bound for the minimum distance of geometric Goppa codes that generalizes two previous improved bounds. We include examples of the bound to one and two point codes over both the Suzuki and Hermitian curves.

In this paper we study the algebraic-geometry of any one-point code on the Hermitian curve. Moreover, we characterize the minimum-weight codewords of some of their dual codes and describe many their small-weight codewords.
We discuss a class of binary cyclic codes and their dual codes. The minimum distance is determined using algebraic geometry, and an application of Weil's theorem. We relate the weights appearing in the dual codes to the number of rational…
We define a statistical measure of the typical size of short words in a linear code over a finite field. We prove that the dual toric codes coming from polytopes of degree one are characterized, among all dual toric codes, by being extremal…

The purpose of the present article is the study of duals of functional codes on algebraic surfaces. We give a direct geometrical description of them, using differentials. Even if this geometrical description is less trivial, it can be…
In the field of algebraic geometric codes (AG codes), the characterization of dual codes has long been a challenging problem which relies on differentials. In this paper, we provide some descriptions for certain differentials utilizing…
We study the minimum number of minimal codewords in linear codes from the point of view of projective geometry. We derive bounds and in some cases determine the exact values. We also present an extension to minimal subcode supports.
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…
