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…

We describe a novel extension of subspace codes for noncoherent networks, suitable for use when the network is viewed as a communication system that introduces both dimension and symbol errors. We show that when symbol erasures occur in a…
Gray codes for vector spaces are considered in two graphs: the Grassmann graph, and the projective-space graph, both of which have recently found applications in network coding. For the Grassmann graph, constructions of cyclic optimal codes…
Minimal multicast networks are fascinating and efficient combinatorial objects, where the removal of a single link makes it impossible for all receivers to obtain all messages. We study the structure of such networks, and prove some…

Codes in the Grassmannian space have found recently application in network coding. Representation of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\F_q^n$ has generally an essential role in solving coding problems in the Grassmannian, and in particular in…
Error control is significant to network coding, since when unchecked, errors greatly deteriorate the throughput gains of network coding and seriously undermine both reliability and security of data. Two families of codes, subspace and rank…
We study covering problems in Hamming and Grassmann spaces through a unified coding-theoretic and information-theoretic framework. Viewing covering as a form of quantization in general metric spaces, we introduce the notion of the average…

A new construction for constant weight codes is presented. The codes are constructed from $k$-dimensional subspaces of the vector space $\F_q^n$. These subspaces form a constant dimension code in the Grassmannian space $\cG_q(n,k)$. Some of…
