The generalized Hamming weights (GHWs) are fundamental parameters of linear codes. GHWs are of great interest in many applications since they convey detailed information of linear codes. In this paper, we continue the work of [10] to study…
In this paper, we not only give the parity check matrix of the $[1,0]$-twisted generalized Reed-Solomon (in short, TGRS) code, but also determine the weight distribution. Especially, we show that the $[1,0]$-TGRS code is not GRS or EGRS.…

Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have wide applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems, and communication systems due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. Cyclic codes with many zeros and their…
We consider a new class of linear codes, called affine Grassmann codes. These can be viewed as a variant of generalized Reed-Muller codes and are closely related to Grassmann codes. We determine the length, dimension, and the minimum…
Recursive decoding techniques are considered for Reed-Muller (RM) codes of growing length $n$ and fixed order $r.$ An algorithm is designed that has complexity of order $n\log n$ and corrects most error patterns of weight up to…
We classify all $q$-ary $\Delta$-divisible linear codes which are spanned by codewords of weight $\Delta$. The basic building blocks are the simplex codes, and for $q=2$ additionally the first order Reed-Muller codes and the parity check…
Based on a generic construction, two classes of ternary three-weight linear codes are obtained from a family of power functions, including some APN power functions. The weight distributions of these linear codes are determined through…
We introduce the sum-rank metric analogue of Reed--Muller codes, which we called linearized Reed--Muller codes, using multivariate Ore polynomials. We study the parameters of these codes, compute their dimension and give a lower bound for…
The extended coset leader weight enumerator of the generalized Reed-Solomon $[q + 1, q - 3, 5]_q$ code is computed. The computation is considered as a question in finite geometry. For this we need the classification of the points, lines and…
Linear codes with few weights have significant applications in secret sharing schemes, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. There are a number of methods to construct linear codes, one of which is based on…
In this paper, we investigate completely decomposable rank-metric codes, i.e. rank-metric codes that are the direct sum of 1-dimensional maximum rank distance codes. We study the weight distribution of such codes, characterizing codewords…
We study the generalized and extended weight enumerator of the q-ary Simplex code and the q-ary first order Reed-Muller code. For our calculations we use that these codes correspond to a projective system containing all the points in a…
This paper proposes some simple propagation rules which give rise to new binary constant-weight codes.
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,…
A general lossless joint source-channel coding scheme based on linear codes is proposed and then analyzed in this paper. It is shown that a linear code with good joint spectrum can be used to establish limit-approaching joint source-channel…
We use a simple construction called `recursive subproducts' (that is known to yield good codes of lengths $n^m$, $n \geq 3$) to identify a family of codes sandwiched between first-order and second-order Reed-Muller (RM) codes. These codes…
A q-ary linear code of dimension k is called a maximum weight spectrum (MWS) code if it has the maximum possible number (viz. (q^k-1)/(q-1)) of different non-zero weights. We construct MWS codes from quasi-minimal codes, thus obtaining of…
