We look at AG codes associated to the projective line, re-examining the problem of determining their automorphism groups (originally investigated by Duer in 1987 using combinatorial techniques) using recent methods from algebraic geometry.…

This paper investigates the existence, enumeration and asymptotic performance of self-dual and LCD double circulant codes over Galois rings of characteristic $p^2$ and order $p^4$ with $p$ and odd prime. When $p \equiv 3 \pmod{4},$ we give…

The aim of this work is to study the structure and properties of the binary LCD codes having an automorphisms of odd prime order and to present a method for their construction.

We determine the automorphism group of Gabidulin codes of full length and characterise when these codes are equivalent to self-dual codes.

We give a short and elementary proof of the fact that for a linear complementary pair $(C,D)$, where $C$ and $D$ are $2$-sided ideals in a group algebra, $D$ is uniquely determined by $C$ and the dual code $D^\perp$ is permutation…

Starting from a generalization of a recent result on self-duality we systematically analyze self-dual models. We find a criterion to judge whether a given model is self-dual or not. With this tool we construct some new self-dual pairs,…

Self-orthogonal codes are an important subclass of linear codes which have nice applications in quantum codes and lattices. It is known that a binary linear code is self-orthogonal if its every codeword has weight divisible by four, and a…

For any algebraically closed field $K$ and any endomorphism $f$ of $\mathbb{P}^1(K)$ of degree at least 2, the automorphisms of $f$ are the M\"obius transformations that commute with $f$, and these form a finite subgroup of…

We determine the permutation groups that arise as the automorphism groups of cyclic combinatorial objects. As special cases we classify the automorphism groups of cyclic codes. We also give the permutations by which two cyclic combinatorial…

We study the higher derivative corrections that occur in type II superstring theories in ten dimensions or less. Assuming invariance under a discrete duality group G(Z) we show that the generic functions of the scalar fields that occur can…

Let $p$ be a prime and $G$ a subgroup of $GL_d(p)$. We define $G$ to be $p$-exceptional if it has order divisible by $p$, but all its orbits on vectors have size coprime to $p$. We obtain a classification of $p$-exceptional linear groups.…

Let $G$ be a finite non-abelian $p$-group admitting cyclic center and $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we prove that if $C_{G}(Z(\gamma_{3}(G)G^{p}))\nleqslant\gamma_{3}(G)G^{p}$, then $G$ has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$.

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p>0$ and $C \to {\mathbb P}^1_k$ a $p$-cyclic cover of the projective line ramified in exactly one point. We are interested in the $p$-part of the full automorphism group…

In this paper, we show that if G is a finite p-group (p prime) acting by automorphisms on a $\delta$-hyperbolic Poincare Duality group, then the fixed subgroup is a Poincare Duality group over Z/p. We also provide examples to show that the…

A finite group $G$ is called a DCI-group if two Cayley digraphs over $G$ are isomorphic if and only if their connection sets are conjugate by a group automorphism. We prove that the group $C_4\times C_p^2$, where $p$ is a prime, is a…

We study connections between self-inversive and self-reciprocal polynomials, reduction theory of binary forms, minimal models of curves, and formally self-dual codes. We prove that if $\mathcal X$ is a superelliptic curve defined over…

The existence of a biplane with parameters $(121,16,2)$ is an open problem. Recently, it has been proved by Alavi, Daneshkhah and Praeger that the order of an automorphism group of a of possible biplane ${\mathcal D}$ of order $14$ divides…

The existence of an extremal code of length 72 is a long-standing open problem. Let C be a putative extremal code of length 72 and suppose that C has an automorphism g of order 6. We show that C, as an F_2<g>-module, is the direct sum of…

This paper investigates the concept of self-dual convolutional code. We derive the basic properties of this interesting class of codes and we show how some of the techniques to construct self-dual linear block codes generalize to self-dual…

It is shown that a necessary condition for an abstract group G to be the full automorphism group of a Hamiltonian cycle system is that G has odd order or it is either binary, or the affine linear group AGL(1; p) with p prime. We show that…
