Let $R$ be a finite principal ideal ring and $S$ the Galois extension of $R$ of degree $m$. For $k$ and $k_0$, positive integers we determine the number of free $S$-linear codes $B$ of length $l$ with the property $k = rank_S(B)$ and $k_0 =…

Subspace codes and particularly constant dimension codes have attracted much attention in recent years due to their applications in random network coding. As a particular subclass of subspace codes, cyclic subspace codes have additional…
Linear codes with a few weights are an important class of codes in coding theory and have attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, we present several constructions of $q$-ary linear codes with two or three weights from vectorial…
In this paper, we apply two-to-one functions over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ in two generic constructions of binary linear codes. We consider two-to-one functions in two forms: (1) generalized quadratic functions; and (2) $\left(x^{2^t}+x\right)^e$…
Cover-free families are set systems used as solutions for a large variety of problems, and in particular, problems where we deal with $n$ elements and want to identify $d$ invalid ones among them by performing only $t$ tests ($t \leq n$).…
A $\lambda$-cover of a string $S$ is a set of strings $\{C_i\}_1^\lambda$ such that every index in $S$ is contained in an occurrence of at least one string $C_i$. The existence of a $1$-cover defines a well-known class of quasi-periodic…
Linear codes have been an interesting subject of study for many years. Recently, linear codes with few weights have been constructed and extensively studied. In this paper, for an odd prime p, a class of three-weight linear codes over Fp…
The linkage construction and its generalization is one of the most powerful constructions for constant dimension code, accounting for approximately 50\% of all the listed parameters. We show how to improve the linkage construction of…
We present a framework for minimizing costs in constant weight codes while maintaining a certain amount of differentiable codewords. Our calculations are based on a combinatorial view of constant weight codes and relay on simple…
Binary matrix codes with restricted row and column weights are a desirable method of coded modulation for power line communication. In this work, we construct such matrix codes that are obtained as products of affine codes - cosets of…

\textproc{Weighted Vertex Cover} is a variation of an extensively studied NP-complete problem, \textproc{Vertex Cover}, in which we are given a graph, $G = (V,E,w)$, where function $w:V \rightarrow \mathbb{Q}^{+}$ and a parameter $k$. The…
In the $(k,h)$-SetCover problem, we are given a collection $\mathcal{S}$ of sets over a universe $U$, and the goal is to distinguish between the case that $\mathcal{S}$ contains $k$ sets which cover $U$, from the case that at least $h$ sets…
New $s$-extremal extremal unimodular lattices in dimensions $38$, $40$, $42$ and $44$ are constructed from self-dual codes over $\mathbb{F}_5$ by Construction A. In the process of constructing these codes, we obtain a self-dual $[44,22,14]$…
The $(n-\ell)$-deck of an $n$-vertex graph is the multiset of (unlabeled) subgraphs obtained from it by deleting $\ell$ vertices. An $n$-vertex graph is $\ell$-reconstructible if it is determined by its $(n-\ell)$-deck, meaning that no…
Combinatorial $t$-designs have wide applications in coding theory, cryptography, communications and statistics. It is well known that the supports of all codewords with a fixed weight in a code may give a $t$-design. In this paper, we first…

We investigate weakly constrained codes, in which specific patterns occur with prescribed frequencies rather than being strictly forbidden as in conventional constrained coding. We propose a capacity-achieving construction of a weakly…
