In this paper, we obtain some new results on the existence of MDS self-dual codes utilizing (extended) generalized Reed-Solomon codes over finite fields of odd characteristic. For some fixed $q$, our results can produce more classes of MDS…
Executing a logical quantum circuit fault-tolerantly incurs a large spacetime overhead. Recent work has proposed and investigated phantom codes, defined by the property that every in-block logical $\mathrm{CNOT}$ circuit can be implemented…
This article examines group ring codes over finite fields and finite groups. We also present a section on two-dimensional cyclic codes in the quotient ring $\mathbb{F}_q[x, y] / \langle x^{l} - 1, y^{m} - 1 \rangle$. These two-dimensional…
We introduce and characterise grid classes, which are natural generalisations of other well-studied permutation classes. This characterisation allows us to give a new, short proof of the Fibonacci dichotomy: the number of permutations of…
The concept of parity check matrices of linear binary codes has been extended by Heden [9] to parity check systems of nonlinear binary codes. In the present paper we extend this concept to parity check systems of nonlinear codes over finite…
In the last 60 years coding theory has been studied a lot over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ or commutative rings $\mathcal{R}$ with unity. Although in $1993$, a study on the classification of the rings (not necessarily commutative or ring…
In this paper, we investigate polycyclic codes associated with a trinomial of arbitrary degree $n$ over a finite chain ring $ R.$ We extend the concepts of $ n $-isometry and $ n $-equivalence known for constacyclic codes to this class of…
There has been interest during the last decade in properties of the sequence {gcd(a^n-1,b^n-1)}, n=1,2,3,..., where a,b are fixed (multiplicatively independent) elements in either the rational integers, the polynomials in one variable over…
Let $R$ be a finite ring and define the hyperbola $H=\{(x,y) \in R \times R: xy=1 \}$. Suppose that for a sequence of finite odd order rings of size tending to infinity, the following "square root law" bound holds with a constant $C>0$ for…
In this work, we study the codes over the integers with locality constraints. We introduce a weighted notion of locality over $\mathbb{Z}/q_1\mathbb{Z} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{Z}/q_n\mathbb{Z}$ and derive a Singleton-like bound for…
In this paper we investigate linear codes with complementary dual (LCD) codes and formally self-dual codes over the ring $R=\F_{q}+v\F_{q}+v^{2}\F_{q}$, where $v^{3}=v$, for $q$ odd. We give conditions on the existence of LCD codes and…
The results of [1,2] on linear homogeneous two-weight codes over finite Frobenius rings are exended in two ways: It is shown that certain non-projective two-weight codes give rise to strongly regular graphs in the way described in [1,2].…
New bounds on the cardinality of permutation codes equipped with the Ulam distance are presented. First, an integer-programming upper bound is derived, which improves on the Singleton-type upper bound in the literature for some lengths.…
We give a criterion for bounding the homological finiteness length of certain HF-groups. This is used in two distinct contexts. Firstly, the homological finiteness length of a non-uniform lattice on a locally finite n-dimensional…
We study the Singleton-type bound that provides an upper limit on the minimum distance of locally repairable codes. We present an improved bound by carefully analyzing the combinatorial structure of the repair sets. Thus, we show the…
Codes in the sum-rank metric have received many attentions in recent years, since they have wide applications in the multishot network coding, the space-time coding and the distributed storage. Fundamental bounds, some explicit or…
We prove the boundedness theorem for Fano threefolds with log-terminal singularities of any fixed index. This is an improvement of our earlier result, where we required additionally that the variety is Q-factorial, with Picard number 1. The…
We study skew polycyclic codes over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, associated with a skew polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x;\sigma]$, where $\sigma$ is an automorphism of $\mathbb{F}_q$. We start by proving the Roos-like bound for both…
So far, there is no polynomial-time list decoding algorithm (beyond half the minimum distance) for Gabidulin codes. These codes can be seen as the rank-metric equivalent of Reed--Solomon codes. In this paper, we provide bounds on the list…
We prove the following results regarding the linear solvability of networks over various alphabets. For any network, the following are equivalent: (i) vector linear solvability over some finite field, (ii) scalar linear solvability over…
