We establish a connection between linear complementary dual (LCD) codes and caps in projective space. Using this framework and the structure theory of maximal caps, we derive nonexistence theorems for LCD codes with minimum distance at…
We study $1$-perfect codes in Doob graphs $D(m,n)$. We show that such codes that are linear over $GR(4^2)$ exist if and only if $n=(4^{g+d}-1)/3$ and $m=(4^{g+2d}-4^{g+d})/6$ for some integers $g \ge 0$ and $d>0$. We also prove necessary…
Binary optimal codes often contain optimal or near-optimal subcodes. In this paper we show that this is true for the family of self-dual codes. One approach is to compute the optimum distance profiles (ODPs) of linear codes, which was…
In this paper, upper bounds on codes over Gaussian integers, Lipschitz integers and Hurwitz integers with respect to Mannheim metric, Lipschitz and Hurwitz metric are given.
This chapter investigates the properties of (linear) codes in $ A_n $ lattices, the practical motivation for which is found in several communication scenarios, such as asymmetric channels, sticky-insertion channels, bit-shift channels, and…
We solve the problem of existence of perfect codes in the Doob graph. It is shown that 1-perfect codes in the Doob graph D(m,n) exist if and only if 6m+3n+1 is a power of 2; that is, if the size of a 1-ball divides the number of vertices.…
A covering code is a set of codewords with the property that the union of balls, suitably defined, around these codewords covers an entire space. Generally, the goal is to find the covering code with the minimum size codebook. While most…
The Golomb--Welch conjecture states that there are no perfect $e$-error-correcting codes in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ for $n \ge 3$ and $e \ge 2$. In this note, we prove the nonexistence of perfect $2$-error-correcting codes for a certain class of…
Universal bounds for the potential energy of weighted spherical codes are obtained by linear programming. The universality is in the sense of Cohn-Kumar -- every attaining code is optimal with respect to a large class of potential functions…
Ternary constant weight codes of length $n=2^m$, weight $n-1$, cardinality $2^n$ and distance $5$ are known to exist for every $m$ for which there exists an APN permutation of order $2^m$, that is, at least for all odd $m \geq 3$ and for…
The Fibonacci cube of dimension n, denoted as $\Gamma$ n , is the subgraph of the n-cube 5 Q n induced by vertices with no consecutive 1's. Ashrafi and his co-authors proved the non-existence of perfect codes in $\Gamma$ n for n $\ge$ 4. As…
Linear codes have been an interesting topic in both theory and practice for many years. In this paper, for an odd prime $p$, we determine the explicit complete weight enumerators of two classes of linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and they…
Lipschitz decomposition is a useful tool in the design of efficient algorithms involving metric spaces. While many bounds are known for different families of finite metrics, the optimal parameters for $n$-point subsets of $\ell_p$, for $p >…
Linear codes have been an interesting subject of study for many years, as linear codes with few weights have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, a class of…
In this paper, we establish the Singleton bound for pomset block codes ($(Pm,\pi)$-codes) of length $N$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_m$. We give a necessary condition for a code to be MDS in the pomset (block) metric and prove that every MDS…
The Golomb-Welch conjecture deals with the existence of perfect $e$% -error correcting Lee codes of word length $n,$ $PL(n,e)$ codes. Although there are many papers on the topic, the conjecture is still far from being solved. In this paper…
In this paper we investigate known Singleton-like bounds in the Lee metric and characterize optimal codes, which turn out to be very few. We then focus on Plotkin-like bounds in the Lee metric and present a new bound that extends and…
Locally repairable codes which are optimal with respect to the bound presented by Prakash et al. are considered. New upper bounds on the length of such optimal codes are derived. The new bounds both improve and generalize previously known…
In this paper we study properties and invariants of matrix codes endowed with the rank metric, and relate them to the covering radius. We introduce new tools for the analysis of rank-metric codes, such as puncturing and shortening…
In this paper, we study properties of rank metric codes in general and maximum rank distance (MRD) codes in particular. For codes with the rank metric, we first establish Gilbert and sphere-packing bounds, and then obtain the asymptotic…
