Let $A_2(n,d)$ be the maximum size of a binary code of length $n$ and minimum distance $d$. In this paper we present the following new lower bounds: $A_2(18,4) \ge 5632$, $A_2(21,4) \ge 40960$, $A_2(22,4) \ge 81920$, $A_2(23,4) \ge 163840$,…
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…
We consider a two-unicast-$Z$ network over a directed acyclic graph of unit capacitated edges; the two-unicast-$Z$ network is a special case of two-unicast networks where one of the destinations has apriori side information of the unwanted…
In this paper, we construct an infinite family of three-weight binary codes from linear codes over the ring $R=\mathbb{F}_2+v\mathbb{F}_2+v^2\mathbb{F}_2$, where $v^3=1.$ These codes are defined as trace codes. They have the algebraic…
The main result here is a characterisation of binary $2$-neighbour-transitive codes with minimum distance at least $5$ via their minimal subcodes, which are found to be generated by certain designs. The motivation for studying this class of…
In this paper, we study $\mathbb{Z}_{2}\mathbb{Z}_{2}[u]$-$(1+u)$-additive constacyclic code of arbitrary length. Firstly, we study the algebraic structure of this family of codes and a set of generator polynomials for this family as a…
Self-dual binary linear codes have been extensively studied and classified for length n <= 40. However, little attention has been paid to linear codes that coincide with their orthogonal complement when the underlying inner product is not…
We show that regular homogeneous two-weight $\mathbb{Z}_{p^k}$-codes where $p$ is odd and $k\geqslant 2$ with dual Hamming distance at least four do not exist. The proof relies on existence conditions for the strongly regular graph built on…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this paper, we construct $2(2p-3)$ classes of codes over the ring $R=\Bbb F_p+u\Bbb F_p,u^2=0$, which are associated with down sets. We compute the Lee weight distributions of the $2(2p-3)$ classes of…
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…
The codewords of weight $10$ of the $[42,21,10]$ extended binary quadratic residue code are shown to hold a design of parameters $3-(42,10,18).$ Its automorphism group is isomorphic to $PSL(2,41)$. Its existence can be explained neither by…
In this paper, a class of two-weight and three-weight linear codes over $\gf(p)$ is constructed, and their application in secret sharing is investigated. Some of the linear codes obtained are optimal in the sense that they meet certain…
Extremal Type II $\mathbb{Z}_{8}$-codes are a class of self-dual $\mathbb{Z}_{8}$-codes with Euclidean weights divisible by $16$ and the largest possible minimum Euclidean weight for a given length. We introduce a doubling method for…
It is reasonable to expect the theory of quantum codes to be simplified in the case of codes of minimum distance 2; thus, it makes sense to examine such codes in the hopes that techniques that prove effective there will generalize. With…
A complementary Gray code for binary n-tuples is one that, when all the tuples are complemented, is identical to itself; this is equivalent to the complement of the first half of the code being identical to the second half. We generalize…
We study the random geometry approach to the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of 2d conformal field theory developed by Cardy and discuss its realization in a gravity dual. In this representation, the gravity dual of the $T\bar{T}$ deformation…
Self-orthogonal codes are an important subclass of linear codes which have nice applications in quantum codes and lattices. It is known that a binary linear code is self-orthogonal if its every codeword has weight divisible by four, and a…
We consider a new class of linear codes, called affine Grassmann codes. These can be viewed as a variant of generalized Reed-Muller codes and are closely related to Grassmann codes. We determine the length, dimension, and the minimum…
This paper investigates the algebraic structure of additive complementary pairs of cyclic codes over a finite commutative ring. We demonstrate that for every additive complementary pair of additive cyclic codes, both constituent codes are…
We give necessary conditions for a two-weight projective cyclic code to be the direct sum of two one-weight irreducible cyclic subcodes of the same dimension, following the work of Wolfmann and Vega. This confirms Vega's conjecture that all…
