We investigate the weight distribution of random binary linear codes. For $0<\lambda<1$ and $n\to\infty$ pick uniformly at random $\lambda n$ vectors in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ and let $C \le \mathbb{F}_2^n$ be the orthogonal complement of their…

We study the generalized roundness of finite metric spaces whose distance matrix $D$ has the property that every row of $D$ is a permutation of the first row. The analysis provides a way to characterize subsets of the Hamming cube $\{ 0, 1…
In this article, we are going to introduce the weighted numerical range which is a further generalization both the c-numerical range and the rank k numerical range. If the boundaries of weighted numerical ranges of two matrices (possibly of…
The sum-rank metric can be seen as a generalization of both, the rank and the Hamming metric. It is well known that sum-rank metric codes outperform rank metric codes in terms of the required field size to construct maximum distance…
Complex Hermitian random matrices with a unitary symmetry can be distinguished by a weight function. When this is even, it is a known result that the distribution of the singular values can be decomposed as the superposition of two…

In this paper, for any odd prime $p$ and an integer $m\ge 3$, several classes of linear codes with $t$-weight $(t=3,5,7)$ are obtained based on some defining sets, and then their complete weight enumerators are determined explicitly by…
In this article we present a class of codes with few weights arising from special type of linear sets. We explicitly show the weights of such codes, their weight enumerator and possible choices for their generator matrices. In particular,…
It is well-known that few-weight linear codes have better applications in secret sharing schemes \cite{JY2006,CC2005}.In particular, projective two-weight codes are very precious as they are closely related to finite projective spaces,…
New lower bounds on the minimum average Hamming distance of binary codes are derived. The bounds are obtained using linear programming approach.
Which integer sequences are sequences of generalized weights of a linear code? In this paper, we answer this question for linear block codes, rank-metric codes, and more generally for sum-rank metric codes. We do so under an existence…
In this paper, we study and characterise certain blocking sets in generalised polygons. This will allow us to derive new results about the minimum weight and minimum weight code words in the code generated by the rows of the incidence…
Linear codes with few weights have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, several classes of $p$-ary linear codes with two or three weights are constructed…
A codeword is associated to a linearized polynomial. The weight distribution of the codewords is determined as the linearized polynomial varies in a family of fixed degree. There is a corresponding result on Wenger graphs from linearized…
A generic construction of linear codes over finite fields has recently received a lot of attention, and many one-weight, two-weight and three-weight codes with good error correcting capability have been produced with this generic approach.…
The size of the Hamming distance spectrum of a code has received great attention in recent research. The main objective of this paper is to extend these significant theories to the $b$-symbol distance spectrum. We examine this question for…
We consider higher-rank versions of the standard numerical range for matrices. A central motivation for this investigation comes from quantum error correction. We develop the basic structure theory for the higher-rank numerical ranges, and…
