For each odd prime power $q$, let $4 \leq n\leq q^{2}+1$. Hermitian self-orthogonal $[n,2,n-1]$ codes over $GF(q^{2})$ with dual distance three are constructed by using finite field theory. Hence, $[[n,n-4,3]]_{q}$ quantum MDS codes for $4…
We investigate additive codes, defined as $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear subspaces $C \subseteq \mathbb{F}_{q^h}^n$ of length $n$ and dimension $r$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. An additive code is said to be of type $[n, r/h, d]_q^h$, where $d$ denotes the…

The main conjecture on maximum distance separable (MDS) codes states that, execpt for some special cases, the maximum length of a q-ary linear MDS code is q+1. This conjecture does not hold true for near maximum distance separable codes…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^{e}$ elements, where $p$ is a prime number and $e \geq 1$ is an integer. In this paper, by means of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes, we construct two new classes of quantum…

Let $C$ be a $(n,q^{2k},n-k+1)_{q^2}$ additive MDS code which is linear over ${\mathbb F}_q$. We prove that if $n \geqslant q+k$ and $k+1$ of the projections of $C$ are linear over ${\mathbb F}_{q^2}$ then $C$ is linear over ${\mathbb…
The study of MDS self-dual codes has attracted lots of attention in recent years. There are many papers on determining existence of $q-$ary MDS self-dual codes for various lengths. There are not existence of $q-$ary MDS self-dual codes of…
In this paper, two new families of MDS quantum convolutional codes are constructed. The first one can be regarded as a generalization of \cite[Theorem 6.5]{GGGlinear}, in the sense that we do not assume that $q\equiv1\pmod{4}$. More…
Let $M_{q}(k)$ be the maximum length of MDS codes with parameters $q,k$. In this paper, the properties of $M_{q}(k)$ are studied, and some new upper bounds of $M_{q}(k)$ are obtained. Especially we obtain that $M_{q}(q-1)\leq…
New infinite families of quantum symmetric and asymmetric codes are constructed. Several of these are MDS. The codes obtained are shown to have parameters which are better than previously known. A number of known codes are special cases of…
It is reasonable to expect the theory of quantum codes to be simplified in the case of codes of minimum distance 2; thus, it makes sense to examine such codes in the hopes that techniques that prove effective there will generalize. With…
It is well known that quantum codes can be constructed by means of classical symplectic dual-containing codes. This paper considers a family of two-generator quasi-cyclic codes and derives sufficient conditions for these codes to be…
A $q$-ary code of length $n$, size $M$, and minimum distance $d$ is called an $(n,M,d)_q$ code. An $(n,q^{k},n-k+1)_q$ code is called a maximum distance separable (MDS) code. In this work, some MDS codes over small alphabets are classified.…
With entanglement-assisted (EA) formalism, arbitrary classical linear codes are allowed to transform into EAQECCs by using pre-shared entanglement between the sender and the receiver. In this paper, based on classical cyclic MDS codes by…
