Combinatorial $t$-designs have wide applications in coding theory, cryptography, communications and statistics. It is well known that the supports of all codewords with a fixed weight in a code may give a $t$-design. In this paper, we first…
Dihedral codes, particular cases of quasi-cyclic codes, have a nice algebraic structure which allows to store them efficiently. In this paper, we investigate it and prove some lower bounds on their dimension and minimum distance, in analogy…
Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems, and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, almost perfect nonlinear…

In this paper, we construct an infinite family of three-weight binary codes from linear codes over the ring $R=\mathbb{F}_2+v\mathbb{F}_2+v^2\mathbb{F}_2$, where $v^3=1.$ These codes are defined as trace codes. They have the algebraic…
Negacyclic BCH codes are a subclass of neagcyclic codes and are the best linear codes in many cases. However, there have been very few results on negacyclic BCH codes. Let $q$ be an odd prime power and $m$ be a positive integer. The…
There are many results on the minimum distance of a cyclic code of the form that if a certain set T is a subset of the defining set of the code, then the minimum distance of the code is greater than some integer t. This includes the BCH,…
A non-zero $\mathbb{F}$-linear map from a finite-dimensional commutative $\mathbb{F}$-algebra to $\mathbb{F}$ is called an $\mathbb{F}$-valued trace if its kernel does not contain any non-zero ideals. In this article, we utilize an…
The ring in the title is the first non commutative ring to have been used as alphabet for block codes. The original motivation was the construction of some quaternionic modular lattices from codes. The new application is the construction of…
In this paper, we study the impact of locality on the decoding of binary cyclic codes under two approaches, namely ordered statistics decoding (OSD) and trellis decoding. Given a binary cyclic code having locality or availability, we…
In this paper we study $\prod\limits_{i=1}^{n} \mathbb{Z}_{2^i}$-Additive Cyclic Codes. These codes are identified as $\mathbb{Z}_{2^n}[x]$-submodules of $\prod\limits_{i=1}^{n}\mathbb{Z}_{2^i}[x]/ \langle x^{\alpha_i}-1\rangle$; $\alpha_i$…
A binary linear code $C$ is a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-double cyclic code if the set of coordinates can be partitioned into two subsets such that any cyclic shift of the coordinates of both subsets leaves invariant the code. These codes can be…
In this work, a unique set of generators for a cyclic code over a finite chain ring has been established. The minimal spanning set and rank of the code have also been determined. Further, sufficient as well as necessary conditions for a…
A positive integer $n$ is defined to be cyclic if and only if every group of size $n$ is cyclic. Equivalently, $n$ is cyclic if and only if $n$ is relatively prime to the number of positive integers less than $n$ that are relatively prime…
Negacyclic BCH codes are an important subclass of negacyclic codes and are the best linear codes in most cases, but their parameters are hard to determine. In this paper, we mainly study two types of negacyclic BCH codes of length…
The 2-girth of a 2-dimensional simplicial complex $X$ is the minimum size of a non-zero 2-cycle in $H_2(X, \mathbb{Z}/2)$. We consider the maximum possible girth of a complex with $n$ vertices and $m$ 2-faces. If $m = n^{2 + \alpha}$ for…

Let $R=\mathbb{Z}_4$ be the integer ring mod $4$. A double cyclic code of length $(r,s)$ over $R$ is a set that can be partitioned into two parts that any cyclic shift of the coordinates of both parts leaves invariant the code. These codes…
For a linear Hamming metric code of length n over a finite field, the number of distinct weights of its codewords is at most n. The codes achieving the equality in the above bound were called full weight spectrum codes. In this paper we…
Using the relationship between totally nonnegative matrices and directed acyclic weighted planar networks, we show that $2\times 2$ minors of minor matrices of totally nonnegative matrices are also nonnegative. We give a combinatorial…
