The maximum-likelihood decoding problem is known to be NP-hard for general linear and Reed-Solomon codes. In this paper, we introduce the notion of A-covered codes, that is, codes that can be decoded through a polynomial time algorithm A…
Separating codes have their applications in collusion-secure fingerprinting for generic digital data, while they are also related to the other structures including hash family, intersection code and group testing. In this paper we study…

The purpose of this paper is to study the cyclic self orthogonal codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^m}$. After providing the generator polynomial of cyclic self orthogonal codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^m}$, we give the necessary and sufficient condition…
In this paper, we investigate cyclic codes over the ring $ \mathbb{F}_p[u,v,w]\langle u^2,$ $v^2, w^2$, $uv-vu, vw-wv, uw-wu \rangle$, where $p$ is a prime number. Which is a part of family of Frobenius rings. We find a unique set of…
The problem of percolation along sites of square lattice is studied. The number of contours being external boundaries for finite clusters has been estimated using geometric considerations. This estimation makes it possible to determine more…

Minimal linear codes are in one-to-one correspondence with special types of blocking sets of projective spaces over a finite field, which are called strong or cutting blocking sets. In this paper we prove an upper bound on the minimal…
We consider recursive decoding techniques for RM codes, their subcodes, and newly designed codes. For moderate lengths up to 512, we obtain near-optimum decoding with feasible complexity.
An improved Singleton-type upper bound is presented for the list decoding radius of linear codes, in terms of the code parameters [n,k,d] and the list size L. L-MDS codes are then defined as codes that attain this bound (under a slightly…
We study the structure of linear codes over the ring $B_k$ which is defined by $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}[v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_k]/\langle v_i^2=v_i,~v_iv_j=v_jv_i \rangle_{i,j=1}^k.$ In order to study the codes, we begin with studying the structure of…
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.…
In an error-correcting code, a sender encodes a message $x \in \{ 0, 1 \}^k$ such that it is still decodable by a receiver on the other end of a noisy channel. In the setting of \emph{error-correcting codes with feedback}, after sending…
We compute the p-widths, $\{\omega_p\}$, for the real projective plane with the standard metric.
We investigate universal bounds on spherical codes and spherical designs that could be obtained using Delsarte's linear programming methods. We give a lower estimate for the LP upper bound on codes, and an upper estimate for the LP lower…
Codes defined on graphs and their properties have been subjects of intense recent research. On the practical side, constructions for capacity-approaching codes are graphical. On the theoretical side, codes on graphs provide several…
Codes over permutations under the infinity norm have been recently suggested as a coding scheme for correcting limited-magnitude errors in the rank modulation scheme. Given such a code, we show that a simple relabeling operation, which…

Function-correcting codes are a coding framework designed to minimize redundancy while ensuring that specific functions or computations of encoded data can be reliably recovered, even in the presence of errors. The choice of metric is…
For an arbitrary (3,L) QC-LDPC code with a girth of twelve, a tight lower bound of the consecutive lengths is proposed. For an arbitrary length above the bound the resultant code necessarily has a girth of twelve, and for the length meeting…
