In this paper, we study upper bounds on the minimum length of frameproof codes introduced by Boneh and Shaw to protect copyrighted materials. A $q$-ary $(k,n)$-frameproof code of length $t$ is a $t \times n$ matrix having entries in…
Separable codes were introduced to provide protection against illegal redistribution of copyrighted multimedia material. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a code of length $n$ over an alphabet of $q$ letters. The descendant code ${\sf…
Binary $t$-frameproof codes ($t$-FPCs) are used in multimedia fingerprinting schemes where the identification of authorized users taking part in the averaging collusion attack is required. In this paper, a binary strongly…
As separable code (SC, IEEE Trans Inf Theory 57:4843-4851, 2011) and frameproof code (FPC, IEEE Trans Inf Theory 44:1897-1905, 1998) do in multimedia fingerprinting, strongly separable code (SSC, Des. Codes and Cryptogr.79:303-318, 2016)…
Frameproof codes are used to fingerprint digital data. It can prevent copyrighted materials from unauthorized use. In this paper, we study upper and lower bounds for $w$-frameproof codes of length $N$ over an alphabet of size $q$. The upper…
Frameproof codes are a class of secure codes that were originally introduced in the pioneering work of Boneh and Shaw in the context of digital fingerprinting. They can be used to enhance the security and credibility of digital content. Let…
Consider a $q$-ary block code satisfying the property that no $l$-letters long codeword's prefix occurs as a suffix of any codeword for $l$ inside some interval. We determine a general upper bound on the maximum size of these codes and a…
We derive a simple proof, based on information theoretic inequalities, of an upper bound on the largest rates of $q$-ary $\overline{2}$-separable codes that improves recent results of Wang for any $q\geq 13$. For the case $q=2$, we recover…
Frameproof codes have been extensively studied for many years due to their application in copyright protection and their connection to extremal set theory. In this paper, we investigate upper bounds on the cardinality of wide-sense…
In the last two decades, several classes of codes are introduced to protect the copyrighted digital data. They have important applications in the scenarios like digital fingerprinting and broadcast encryption schemes. In this paper we will…
We say that a $q$-ary length $n$ code is \emph{non-overlapping} if the set of non-trivial prefixes of codewords and the set of non-trivial suffices of codewords are disjoint. These codes were first studied by Levenshtein in 1964, motivated…
For an integer $q\ge 2$, a perfect $q$-hash code $C$ is a block code over $[q]:=\{1,\ldots,q\}$ of length $n$ in which every subset $\{\mathbf{c}_1,\mathbf{c}_2,\dots,\mathbf{c}_q\}$ of $q$ elements is separated, i.e., there exists…
In this paper, we study $w$-frameproof codes, which are equivalent to $\{1,w\}$-separating hash families. Our main results concern binary codes, which are defined over an alphabet of two symbols. For all $w \geq 3$, and for $w+1 \leq N \leq…
Non-overlapping codes are a set of codewords such that the prefix of each codeword is not a suffix of any codeword in the set, including itself. If the lengths of the codewords are variable, it is additionally required that every codeword…

Intersecting codes are a classical object in coding theory whose rank-metric analogue has recently been introduced. Although the definition formally parallels the Hamming-metric case, the structure and parameter constraints of rank-metric…

We consider $q$-ary (linear and nonlinear) block codes with exactly two distances: $d$ and $d+\delta$. Several combinatorial constructions of optimal such codes are given. In the linear (but not necessary projective) case, we prove that…
We obtain an upper bound on the number of extended irreducible q-ary Goppa codes of degree $r$ and length $q^n+1$, where $q=p^t$ and $n$ and $r>2$ are prime numbers.
We study the maximum length of $q$-ary codes as a function of alphabet size, code size, and Singleton defect. For an $(n, M, d)_q$ code with dimension $\kappa = \log_q M \ge 2$ and Singleton defect $s = n - \lceil\kappa\rceil + 1 - d$, we…
