The weighted-Hamming metric generalizes the Hamming metric by assigning different weights to blocks of coordinates. It is well-suited for applications such as coding over independent parallel channels, each of which has a different level of…

The weight hierarchy of a linear code has been an important research topic in coding theory since Wei's original work in 1991. Choosing $ D=\Big\{(x,y)\in \Big(\F_{p^{s_1}}\times\F_{p^{s_2}}\Big)\Big\backslash\{(0,0)\}: f(x)+g(y)=0\Big\}$…
The generalized Hamming weight (GHW) $d_r(C)$ of linear codes $C$ is a natural generalization of the minimum Hamming distance $d(C)(=d_1(C))$ and has become one of important research objects in coding theory since Wei's originary work [23]…

Projective Reed-Muller codes correspond to subcodes of the Reed-Muller code in which the polynomials being evaluated to yield codewords, are restricted to be homogeneous. The Generalized Hamming Weights (GHW) of a code ${\cal C}$, identify…
Universal security over a network with linear network coding has been intensively studied. However, previous linear codes and code pairs used for this purpose were linear over a larger field than that used on the network, which restricts…
