Let $A$ be a ring with identity, $\sigma$ a ring endomorphism of $A$ that maps the identity to itself, $\delta$ a $\sigma$-derivation of $A$, and consider the skew-polynomial ring $A[X;\sigma,\delta]$. When $A$ is a finite field, a Galois…
Cyclic codes and their various generalizations, such as quasi-twisted (QT) codes, have a special place in algebraic coding theory. Among other things, many of the best-known or optimal codes have been obtained from these classes. In this…
A locally recoverable code of locality $r$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ is a code where every coordinate of a codeword can be recovered using the values of at most $r$ other coordinates of that codeword. Locally recoverable codes are efficient at…
Monte Carlo computer simulations are used to study the conformational free energy of a folded polymer confined to a long cylindrical tube. The polymer is modeled as a hard-sphere chain. Its conformational free energy $F$ is measured as a…
A code $C \subseteq \F_2^n$ is a $(c,\epsilon,\delta)$-expander code if it has a Tanner graph, where every variable node has degree $c$, and every subset of variable nodes $L_0$ such that $|L_0|\leq \delta n$ has at least $\epsilon c |L_0|$…
{A cyclic subspace code is a union of the orbits of subspaces contained in it. In a recent paper, Gluesing-Luerssen et al. (Des. Codes Cryptogr. 89, 447-470, 2021) showed that the study of the distance distribution of a single orbit cyclic…
We show that within any quantum stabilizer code there lurks a classical binary linear code with similar error-correcting capabilities, thereby demonstrating new connections between quantum codes and classical codes. Using this result --…
Let $\mathbb{F}_\ell$ be a finite field with $\ell$ elements and let $G = C_p \rtimes C_m$ be a faithful split metacyclic group. In this paper, we develop a complete theory for the twisted group algebra $\mathbb{F}_\ell^\alpha G$. Using the…
In this article, for a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and a natural number $l,$ let $\mathcal{R}$ denote the product ring $\mathbb{F}_q^l.$ Firstly, for an automorphism $\Theta$ of $\mathcal{R},$ a $\Theta$-derivation $\Delta_\Theta$ of…
Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems, and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, a class of three-weight…
Let $\mathbb{F}_{2^m}$ be a finite field of $2^m$ elements, and $R=\mathbb{F}_{2^m}[u]/\langle u^k\rangle=\mathbb{F}_{2^m}+u\mathbb{F}_{2^m}+\ldots+u^{k-1}\mathbb{F}_{2^m}$ ($u^k=0$) where $k$ is an integer satisfying $k\geq 2$. For any odd…
We investigate scalar matrix elements of the nucleon using $N_f=2+1+1$ flavors of maximally twisted mass fermions at a fixed value of the lattice spacing of $a\approx 0.078{\rm fm}$. We compute disconnected contributions to the relevant…
In this paper we characterize the algebraic structure of two-dimensional $(\alpha,\beta )$-constacyclic codes of arbitrary length $s.\ell$ and of their duals. For $\alpha,\beta \in \{1,-1\}$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power and let $X(m,q)$ be the set of symmetric bilinear forms on an $m$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. The partition of $X(m,q)$ induced by the action of the general linear group gives rise to a…
Let $K/F$ and $K/L$ be two cyclic Galois field extensions and $D=(K/F,\sigma,c)$ a cyclic algebra. Given an invertible element $d\in D$, we present three families of unital nonassociative algebras over $L\cap F$ defined on the direct sum of…
We show that the spontaneous breaking of center symmetry can be avoided on a $L^2\times 1^2$ lattice with the appropriate choice of twisted boundary conditions. In order for this to work it is crucial that the twisted boundary conditions…
It has been recently shown that $|| F_n(A) ||\leq 2$, where $A$ is a linear continuous operator acting in a Hilbert space, and $F_n$ is the Faber polynomial of degree $n$ corresponding to some convex compact $E\subset \mathbb C$ containing…
For $\lambda$ an $n$-th power of a unit in a finite chain ring we prove that $\lambda$-constacyclic repeated-root codes over some finite chain rings are equivalent to cyclic codes. This allows us to simplify the structure of some…
We show that the conformal data of a range of large-$N$ CFTs, the melonic CFTs, are specified by constrained extremization of the universal part of the sphere free energy $F=-\log Z_{S^d}$, called $\tilde{F}$. This family includes the…
We call shifted power a polynomial of the form $(x-a)^e$. The main goal of this paper is to obtain broadly applicable criteria ensuring that the elements of a finite family $F$ of shifted powers are linearly independent or, failing that, to…
