In this paper, we give the necessary and sufficient conditions for the Cohen-Macaulayness of the associated graded ring of a simplicial affine semigroups using Gr\"{o}bner basis. We generalize the concept of homogeneous numerical semigroup…
We contruct a one-to-one correspondence between a subset of numerical semigroups with genus $g$ and $\gamma$ even gaps and the integer points of a rational polytope. In particular, we give an overview to apply this correspondence to try to…
In the past few years, linear codes with few weights and their weight analysis have been widely studied. In this paper, we further investigate a class of two-weight or three-weight linear codes from defining sets and determine their weight…
Let $G$ be a simple, simply-connected algebraic group defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$. Given a power $q = p^r$ of $p$, let $G(\mathbb{F}_q) \subset G$ be the subgroup of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points. Let $L(\lambda)$ be the simple rational…
We introduce the notion of pattern for numerical semigroups, which allows us to generalize the definition of Arf numerical semigroups. In this way infinitely many other classes of numerical semigroups are defined giving a classification of…
We describe a new class of list decodable codes based on Galois extensions of function fields and present a list decoding algorithm. These codes are obtained as a result of folding the set of rational places of a function field using…
A structure theorem of the group codes which are relative projective for the subgroup $\lbrace 1 \rbrace$ of $G$ is given. With this, we show that all such relative projective group codes in a fixed group algebra $RG$ are in bijection to…
Few-weight codes have been constructed and studied for many years, since their fascinating relations to finite geometries, strongly regular graphs and Boolean functions. Simplex codes are one-weight Griesmer $[\frac{q^k-1}{q-1},k…
For g $\ge$ 0, let n g denote the number of numerical semi-groups of genus g. A conjecture by Maria Bras-Amor\'os in 2008 states that the inequality n g $\ge$ n g--1 + n g--2 should hold for all g $\ge$ 2. Here we show that such an…
The aim of this work is to algebraically describe the relative generalized Hamming weights of evaluation codes. We give a lower bound for these weights in terms of a footprint bound. We prove that this bound can be sharp. We compute the…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be an untwisted affine Lie algebra with associated Weyl group $W_a$. To any level 0 weight $\gamma$ we associate a weighted graph $\Gamma_\gamma$ that encodes the orbit of $\gamma$ under the action $W_a$. We show that the…
We investigate numerical semigroups generated by any quadratic sequence with initial term zero and an infinite number of terms. We find an efficient algorithm for calculating the Ap\'ery set, as well as bounds on the elements of the Ap\'ery…
In this paper, based on the theory of defining sets, a class of four-weight or five-weight linear codes over Fp is constructed. The complete weight enumerators of the linear codes are determined by means of Weil sums. In some case, there is…
We study the structure of the family of numerical semigroups with fixed multiplicity and Frobenius number. We give an algorithmic method to compute all the semigroups in this family. As an application we compute the set of all numerical…
Currently known secondary construction techniques for linear codes mainly include puncturing, shortening, and extending. In this paper, we propose a novel method for the secondary construction of linear codes based on their weight…
In this paper we extend some set theoretic concepts of numerical semigroups for arbitrary sub-semigroups of natural numbers. Then we characterized gapsets which leads to a more efficient computational approach towards numerical semigroups…
The aim of this survey is to provide the reader with an essential and accessible introduction to the theory of Weierstrass semigroups, in the context of the theory developed by K.-O. St\"ohr and J.F. Voloch. Furthermore, we discuss an…
In this paper, based on the theory of defining sets, two classes of at most six-weight linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_p$ are constructed. The weight distributions of the linear codes are determined by means of Gaussian period and Weil sums.…
Chu has recently shown that the Abel lemma on summations by parts can serve as the underlying relation for Bailey's ${}_6\psi_6$ bilateral summation formula. In other words, the Abel lemma spells out the telescoping nature of the…
The generalized Hamming weights of a linear code have been extensively studied since Wei first use them to characterize the cryptography performance of a linear code over the wire-tap channel of type II. In this paper, we investigate the…
