We study circuit codes with long bit runs (sequences of distinct transitions) and derive a formula for the maximum length for an infinite class of symmetric circuit codes with long bit runs. This formula also results in an improved lower…

We establish a connection between linear complementary dual (LCD) codes and caps in projective space. Using this framework and the structure theory of maximal caps, we derive nonexistence theorems for LCD codes with minimum distance at…

The classical way of extending an $[n, k, d]$ linear code $\C$ is to add an overall parity-check coordinate to each codeword of the linear code $\C$. This extended code, denoted by $\overline{\C}(-\bone)$ and called the standardly extended…

In this work we study the list-decoding size of Reed-Muller codes. Given a received word and a distance parameter, we are interested in bounding the size of the list of Reed-Muller codewords that are within that distance from the received…

The binary Hamming codes with parameters $[2^m-1, 2^m-1-m, 3]$ are perfect. Their extended codes have parameters $[2^m, 2^m-1-m, 4]$ and are distance-optimal. The first objective of this paper is to construct a class of binary linear codes…

For lengths $64$ and $66$, we construct extremal singly even self-dual codes with weight enumerators for which no extremal singly even self-dual codes were previously known to exist. We also construct new $40$ inequivalent extremal doubly…

We investigate the minimum distance of structured binary Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes whose parity-check matrices are of the form $[\mathbf{C} \vert \mathbf{M}]$ where $\mathbf{C}$ is circulant and of column weight $2$, and…

Permutation codes of length $n$ and distance $d$ is a set of permutations on $n$ symbols, where the distance between any two elements in the set is at least $d$. Subgroup permutation codes are permutation codes with the property that the…

Linear programming approaches have been applied to derive upper bounds on the size of classical codes and quantum codes. In this paper, we derive similar results for general quantum codes with entanglement assistance, including nonadditive…

This paper concerns non-overlapping codes, block codes motivated by synchronisation and DNA-based storage applications. Most existing constructions of these codes do not account for the restrictions posed by the physical properties of…

We discuss inequalities holding between the vocabulary size, i.e., the number of distinct nonterminal symbols in a grammar-based compression for a string, and the excess length of the respective universal code, i.e., the code-based analog…

The metric space $\mathcal{H}_{q}(n,w)$ is the set of all words of length $n$ with weight $w$ over the alphabet $\mathbb{Z}_{q}$, under the Hamming distance metric. A $q$-ary constant-weight code, as a nonempty subset of…

In this paper non-trivial non-linear binary systematic AMDS codes are classified in terms of their weight distributions, employing only elementary techniques. In particular, we show that their length and minimum distance completely…

We consider the problem of describing the typical (possibly) non-linear code of minimum distance bounded from below over a large alphabet. We concentrate on block codes with the Hamming metric and on subspace codes with the injection…

Let C be an extremal binary doubly even self-dual code of length n and s(C) denote the largest integer t such that the support design of C holds a t-design for some weight. In this paper, we prove s(C) \leq 7.

A code $C \subseteq \{0, 1, 2\}^n$ of length $n$ is called trifferent if for any three distinct elements of $C$ there exists a coordinate in which they all differ. By $T(n)$ we denote the maximum cardinality of trifferent codes with length.…

For a positive integer $d$, a set of points in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space is called almost-equidistant if for any three points from the set, some two are at unit distance. Let $f(d)$ denote the largest size of an almost-equidistant set…

We exhibit seven linear codes exceeding the current best known minimum distance d for their dimension k and block length n. Each code is defined over F_8, and their invariants [n,k,d] are given by [49,13,27], [49,14,26], [49,16,24],…

A longstanding open problem in coding theory is to determine the best (asymptotic) rate $R_2(\delta)$ of binary codes with minimum constant (relative) distance $\delta$. An existential lower bound was given by Gilbert and Varshamov in the…
