We consider the problem of computing identifying codes of graphs and its fractional relaxation. The ratio between the size of optimal integer and fractional solutions is between 1 and 2 ln(|V|)+1 where V is the set of vertices of the graph.…

Flag codes are a class of multishot network codes comprising sequences of nested subspaces (flags) within the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$, where $q$ is a prime power. In this paper, we propose a family of constructions for full flag codes…

Nearly perfect packing codes are those codes that meet the Johnson upper bound on the size of error-correcting codes. This bound is an improvement to the sphere-packing bound. A related bound for covering codes is known as the van Wee…
