Salazar, Dunn and Graham in [Salazar et. al., 2006] presented an improved Feng-Rao bound for the minimum distance of dual codes. In this work we take the improvement a step further. Both the original bound by Salazar et. al., as well as our…
We present a new bound for the minimum distance of a general primary linear code. For affine variety codes defined from generalised C_{ab} curves the new bound often improves dramatically on the Feng-Rao bound for primary codes. The method…
The most successful method to obtain lower bounds for the minimum distance of an algebraic geometric code is the order bound, which generalizes the Feng-Rao bound. We provide a significant extension of the bound that improves the order…
The weight hierarchy of one-point algebraic geometry codes can be estimated by means of the generalized order bounds, which are described in terms of a certain Weierstrass semigroup. The asymptotical behaviour of such bounds for r > 1…
In this paper we compute the order (or Feng-Rao) bound on the minimum distance of one-point algebraic geometry codes, when the Weierstrass semigroup at the point Q is an Arf semigroup. The results developed to that purpose also provide the…
We describe the second (generalized) Feng-Rao distance for elements in an Arf numerical semigroup that are greater than or equal to the conductor of the semigroup. This provides a lower bound for the second Hamming weight for one point AG…
Some linear codes associated to maximal algebraic curves via Feng-Rao construction are investigated. In several case, these codes have better minimum distance with respect to the previously known linear codes with same length and dimension.
The order bound for the minimum distance of algebraic geometry codes was originally defined for the duals of one-point codes and later generalized for arbitrary algebraic geometry codes. Another bound of order type for the minimum distance…
We generalize the unique decoding algorithm for one-point AG codes over the Miura-Kamiya Cab curves proposed by Lee, Bras-Amor\'os and O'Sullivan (2012) to general one-point AG codes, without any assumption. We also extend their unique…
We give one more proof of the first linear programming bound for binary codes, following the line of work initiated by Friedman and Tillich. The new argument is somewhat similar to previous proofs, but we believe it to be both simpler and…
We generalize the list decoding algorithm for Hermitian codes proposed by Lee and O'Sullivan based on Gr\"obner bases to general one-point AG codes, under an assumption weaker than one used by Beelen and Brander. By using the same…
A sharp upper bound for the maximum integer not belonging to an ideal of a numerical semigroup is given and the ideals attaining this bound are characterized. Then the result is used, through the so-called Feng-Rao numbers, to bound the…
A class of linear block codes which simultaneously generalizes Gabidulin codes and a class of skew cyclic codes is defined. For these codes, both a Hartmann-Tzeng-like bound and a Roos-like bound, with respect to their rank distance, are…
Tensor codes are a generalisation of matrix codes. Such codes are defined as subspaces of order-r tensors for which the ambient space is endowed with the tensor-rank as a metric. A class of these codes was introduced by Roth, who also…
Ahlswede and Katona (1977) posed the following isodiametric problem in Hamming spaces: For every $n$ and $1\le M\le2^{n}$, determine the minimum average Hamming distance of binary codes with length $n$ and size $M$. Fu, Wei, and Yeung…
In this manuscript we show that the second Feng-Rao number of any telescopic numerical semigroup agrees with the multiplicity of the semigroup. To achieve this result we first study the behavior of Ap\'ery sets under gluings of numerical…
Various methods have been used to obtain improvements of the Goppa lower bound for the minimum distance of an algebraic geometric code. The main methods divide into two categories and all but a few of the known bounds are special cases of…
Two new constructions of linear code pairs $C_2 \subset C_1$ are given for which the codimension and the relative minimum distances $M_1(C_1,C_2)$, $M_1(C_2^\perp,C_1^\perp)$ are good. By this we mean that for any two out of the three…
A large class of MDS linear codes is constructed. These codes are endowed with an efficient decoding algorithm. Both the definition of the codes and the design of their decoding algorithm only require from Linear Algebra methods, making…
Compared with classical block codes, efficient list decoding of rank-metric codes seems more difficult. Although the list decodability of random rank-metric codes and limits to list decodability have been completely determined, little work…
