This text contains some notes on the Griesmer bound. In particular, we give a geometric proof of the Griesmer bound for the generalized weights and show that a Solomon--Stiffler type construction attains it if the minimum distance is…
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 prove a new lower bound on the field size of locally repairable codes (LRCs). Additionally, we construct maximally recoverable (MR) codes which are cyclic. While a known construction for MR codes has the same parameters, it produces…

Generalized bicycle (GB) codes is a class of quantum error-correcting codes constructed from a pair of binary circulant matrices. Unlike for other simple quantum code ans\"atze, unrestricted GB codes may have linear distance scaling. In…
