We provide a geometric characterization of $k$-dimensional $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$-linear sum-rank metric codes as tuples of $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^k$. We then use this characterization to study one-weight codes in the…
One-weight codes, in which all nonzero codewords share the same weight, form a highly structured class of linear codes with deep connections to finite geometry. While their classification is well understood in the Hamming and rank metrics -…
Associated to any finite metric space are a large number of objects and quantities which provide some degree of structural or geometric information about the space. In this paper we show that in the setting of subsets of weighted Hamming…
Cyclic codes with a few weights are very useful in the design of frequency hopping sequences and the development of secret sharing schemes. In this paper, we mainly use Gauss sums to represent the Hamming weights of a general construction…

In this paper we study the algebraic geometry of any two-point code on the Hermitian curve and reveal the purely geometric nature of their dual minimum distance. We describe the minimum-weight codewords of many of their dual codes through…
Irreducible cyclic codes are an interesting type of codes and have applications in space communications. They have been studied for decades and a lot of progress has been made. The objectives of this paper are to survey and extend earlier…

In this note we show that the minimum distance of a linear code equals one plus the smallest shift in the first step of the minimal graded free resolution of the Orlik-Terao algebra (i.e., the initial degree of the Orlik-Tearo ideal)…
In this note, we give a very simple description of the generalized Hamming weights of Reed--Muller codes. For this purpose, we generalize the well-known Macaulay representation of a nonnegative integer and state some of its basic…
The generalized Hamming weights (GHWs) of a linear code C extend the concept of minimum distance, which is the minimum cardinality of the support of all one-dimensional subspaces of C, to the minimum cardinality of the support of all…
By extending the notion of minimum rank distance, this paper introduces two new relative code parameters of a linear code C_1 of length n over a field extension and its subcode C_2. One is called the relative dimension/intersection profile…
A structure theorem of the group codes which are relative projective for the subgroup $\lbrace 1 \rbrace$ of $G$ is given. With this, we show that all such relative projective group codes in a fixed group algebra $RG$ are in bijection to…
In this paper we introduce the relative generalized minimum distance function (RGMDF for short) and it allows us to give an algebraic approach to the relative generalized Hamming weights of the projective Reed--Muller--type codes. Also we…
A linear code of length $n$ over a finite chain ring $R$ with residue field $\F_q$ is a $R$-submodule of $R^n$. A $R$-linear code is a code over $\F_q$ (not necessarily linear) which is the generalized Gray map image of a linear code over…
We consider a class of linear codes associated to projective algebraic varieties defined by the vanishing of minors of a fixed size of a generic matrix. It is seen that the resulting code has only a small number of distinct weights. The…
The setting of projective systems can be used to study the parameters of a projective linear code $\mathcal{C}$. This can be done by considering the intersections of the point set $\Omega$ defined by the columns of a generating matrix for…
Independent parallel q-ary symmetric channels are a suitable transmission model for several applications. The proposed weighted-Hamming metric is tailored to this setting and enables optimal decoding performance. We show that some…
