Let $N(d,d^\perp)$ denote the minimum length $n$ of a linear code $C$ with $d$ and $d^{\bot}$, where $d$ is the minimum Hamming distance of $C$ and $d^{\bot}$ is the minimum Hamming distance of $C^{\bot}$. In this paper, we show a lower…

Polycyclic codes offer a natural generalization of cyclic codes and provide a broader algebraic framework for constructing linear codes with good parameters. In this paper, we study binary polycyclic codes associated with powers of…
We present a construction of 1-perfect binary codes, which gives a new lower bound on the number of such codes. We conjecture that this lower bound is asymptotically tight.
Any binary string can be associated with a unary predicate $P$ on $\mathbb{N}$. In this paper we investigate subsets named by a predicate $P$ such that the relation $P(x+y)$ has finite VC dimension. This provides a measure of complexity for…
We consider locally recoverable codes (LRCs) and aim to determine the smallest possible length $n=n_q(k,d,r)$ of a linear $[n,k,d]_q$-code with locality $r$. For $k\le 7$ we exactly determine all values of $n_2(k,d,2)$ and for $k\le 6$ we…
Just as the Hamming weight spectrum of a linear block code sheds light on the performance of a maximum likelihood decoder, the pseudo-weight spectrum provides insight into the performance of a linear programming decoder. Using properties of…
The VC dimension of the Ising perceptron with binary patterns is calculated by numerical enumerations for system sizes N <= 31. It is significantly larger than N/2. The data suggest that there is probably no well defined asymptotic…
Four different ways of obtaining low-density parity-check codes from expander graphs are considered. For each case, lower bounds on the minimum stopping set size and the minimum pseudocodeword weight of expander (LDPC) codes are derived.…
The paper provides a new perspective on peak- and average-constrained Gaussian channels. Such channels model optical wireless communication (OWC) systems which employ intensity-modulation with direct detection (IM/DD). First, the paper…
In this paper, we give upper bounds on the sizes of $(d, L)$ list-decodable codes in the Hamming metric space from covering codes with the covering radius smaller than or equal to $d$. When the list size $L$ is $1$, this gives many new…
In this paper asymptotic methods are used to form lower bounds on the free distance to constraint length ratio of several ensembles of regular, asymptotically good, protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes. In particular, we show that the…
The first linear programming bound of McEliece, Rodemich, Rumsey, and Welch is the best known asymptotic upper bound for binary codes, for a certain subrange of distances. Starting from the work of Friedman and Tillich, there are, by now,…

We study properties of binary codes with parameters close to the parameters of 1-perfect codes. An arbitrary binary $(n=2^m-3, 2^{n-m-1}, 4)$ code $C$, i.e., a code with parameters of a triply-shortened extended Hamming code, is a cell of…
We introduce tree dimension and its leveled variant in order to measure the complexity of leaf sets in binary trees. We then provide a tight upper bound on the size of such sets using leveled tree dimension. This, in turn, implies both the…
The bilateral minimum distance of a binary linear code is the maximum $d$ such that all nonzero codewords have weights between $d$ and $n-d$. Let $Q\subset \{0,1\}^n$ be a binary linear code whose dual has bilateral minimum distance at…
