We provide an algebraic description for sum-rank metric codes, as quotient space of a skew polynomial ring. This approach generalizes at the same time the skew group algebra setting for rank-metric codes and the polynomial setting for codes…
Multivariate multiplicity codes (Kopparty, Saraf, and Yekhanin, J. ACM 2014) are linear codes where the codewords are described by evaluations of multivariate polynomials (with a degree bound) and their derivatives up to a fixed order, on a…
Reed-Solomon codes and Gabidulin codes have maximum Hamming distance and maximum rank distance, respectively. A general construction using skew polynomials, called skew Reed-Solomon codes, has already been introduced in the literature. In…
Any integral convex polytope $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ provides a $N$-dimensional toric variety $X_P$ and an ample divisor $D_P$ on this variety. This paper gives an explicit construction of the algebraic geometric error-correcting code on…
We introduce twisted permutation codes, which are frequency permutation arrays analogous to repetition permutation codes, namely, codes obtained from the repetition construction applied to a permutation code. In particular, we show that a…
In this paper we introduce the class of Spread Codes for the use in random network coding. Spread Codes are based on the construction of spreads in finite projective geometry. The major contribution of the paper is an efficient decoding…
The classical Reed-Muller codes over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ are based on evaluations of $m$-variate polynomials of degree at most $d$ over a product set $U^m$, for some $d$ less than $|U|$. Because of their good distance properties,…
This paper presents a new decoding for polynomial residue codes, called the minimum degree-weighted distance decoding. The newly proposed decoding is based on the degree-weighted distance and different from the traditional minimum Hamming…
We propose reducible algebraic curves as a mechanism to construct Partial MDS (PMDS) codes geometrically. We obtain new general existence results, new explicit constructions and improved estimates on the smallest field sizes over which such…
We propose new results on low weight codewords of affine and projective generalized Reed-Muller codes. In the affine case we prove that if the size of the working finite field is large compared to the degree of the code, the low weight…
In this paper we present several values for the next-to-minimal weights of projective Reed-Muller codes. We work over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q \geq 3$ since in IEEE-IT 62(11) p. 6300-6303 (2016) we have determined the complete values for the…
We give a polynomial time algorithm to decode multivariate polynomial codes of degree $d$ up to half their minimum distance, when the evaluation points are an arbitrary product set $S^m$, for every $d < |S|$. Previously known algorithms can…
The note clarifies a gap in the proof of the minimum distance for Projective Reed-Muller Codes. The gap was identified by S.Ghorpade and R.Ludhani in a recent article. Here the original thoughts are explained and the gap closed.
In this paper we present several classes of asymptotically good concatenated quantum codes and derive lower bounds on the minimum distance and rate of the codes. We compare these bounds with the best-known bound of…
Minimal linear codes are in one-to-one correspondence with special types of blocking sets of projective spaces over a finite field, which are called strong or cutting blocking sets. In this paper we prove an upper bound on the minimal…
We propose a new class of efficient decoding algorithms for Reed-Muller (RM) codes over binary-input memoryless channels. The algorithms are based on projecting the code on its cosets, recursively decoding the projected codes (which are…
The paper proposes to decode Reed-Muller (RM) codes by projecting onto only a few subspaces such that the number of projections is significantly reduced. It reveals that the probability that error pairs are canceled simultaneously in two…
We introduce the Symplectic Grassmann codes as projective codes defined by symplectic Grassmannians, in analogy with the orthogonal Grassmann codes introduced in [4]. Note that the Lagrangian-Grassmannian codes are a special class of…
In this short survey we concern ourselves with minimal codes, a classical object in coding theory. We will explain the relation between minimal codes and various other mathematical domains, in particular with finite projective geometry.…
Projective Reed-Muller codes were introduced by Lachaud, in 1988 and their dimension and minimum distance were determined by Serre and S{\o}rensen in 1991. In coding theory one is also interested in the higher Hamming weights, to study the…
