We consider $q$-ary (linear and nonlinear) block codes with exactly two distances: $d$ and $d+\delta$. Several combinatorial constructions of optimal such codes are given. In the linear (but not necessary projective) case, we prove that…
The non-binary low-density parity-check (NB-LDPC) codes can offer promising performance advantages but suffer from high decoding complexity. To tackle this challenge, in this paper, we consider NB-LDPC codes over finite fields as codes over…
In \cite{anote}, Wu and Shi studied $ l $-Galois LCD codes over finite chain ring $\mathcal{R}=\mathbb{F}_q+u\mathbb{F}_q$, where $u^2=0$ and $ q=p^e$ for some prime $p$ and positive integer $e$. In this work, we extend the results to the…
In the recent years, there has been active research on self-orthogonal embeddings of linear codes since they yielded some optimal self-orthogonal codes. LCD codes have a trivial hull so they are counterparts of self-orthogonal codes. So it…
A code over a finite field is called locally recoverable code (LRC) if every coordinate symbol can be determined by a small number (at most r, this parameter is called locality) of other coordinate symbols. For a linear code with length n,…
It was shown by Massey that linear complementary dual (LCD for short) codes are asymptotically good. In 2004, Sendrier proved that LCD codes meet the asymptotic Gilbert-Varshamov (GV for short) bound. Until now, the GV bound still remains…
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…
Minimal codes are linear codes where all non-zero codewords are minimal, i.e., whose support is not properly contained in the support of another codeword. The minimum possible length of such a $k$-dimensional linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$…
In this article, we introduce new scalar products over finite rings via additive isomorphisms. This allows us to define new notions of right (respectively left) orthogonal codes, that are not necessarily linear. This leads to definitions of…
In this paper, we investigate the structure and properties of additive complementary dual (ACD) codes over the mixed alphabet $\mathbb{F}_2\mathbb{F}_4$ relative to a certain inner product defined over $\mathbb{F}_2\mathbb{F}_4$. We…
Function-correcting codes (FCCs) protect specific function evaluations of a message against errors. This condition imposes a less stringent distance requirement than classical error-correcting codes (ECCs), allowing for reduced redundancy.…
It is reasonable to expect the theory of quantum codes to be simplified in the case of codes of minimum distance 2; thus, it makes sense to examine such codes in the hopes that techniques that prove effective there will generalize. With…
Linear complementary dual codes (LCD codes) are codes whose intersections with their dual codes are trivial. These codes were introduced by Massey in 1992. LCD codes have wide applications in data storage, communication systems, and…
A binary code of blocklength $n$ and codebook size $M$ is called an $(n,M)$ code, which is studied for memoryless binary symmetric channels (BSCs) with the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding. For any $n \geq 2$, some optimal codes among the…
This paper explores extremal self-dual double circulant (DC) codes and linear complementary dual (LCD) codes of arbitrary length over the Galois field $\mathbb F_2$. We establish the sufficient and necessary conditions for DC codes and…
Bazzi and Mitter [3] showed that binary dihedral group codes are asymptotically good. In this paper we prove that the dihedral group codes over any finite field with good mathematical properties are asymptotically good. If the…
In this paper, we investigate the existence of self-dual MRD codes $C\subset L^n$, where $L/F$ is an arbitrary field extension of degree $m\geq n$. We then apply our results to the case of finite fields, and prove that if $m=n$ and…
In this article we mainly study linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ and their binary subfield codes. We construct linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ whose defining sets are the certain subsets of $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$ obtained from…
We study an approximate version of $q$-query LDCs (Locally Decodable Codes) over the real numbers and prove lower bounds on the encoding length of such codes. A $q$-query $(\alpha,\delta)$-approximate LDC is a set $V$ of $n$ points in…
Most bounds on the size of codes hold for any code, whether linear or not. Notably, the Griesmer bound holds only in the linear case and so optimal linear codes are not necessarily optimal codes. In this paper we identify code parameters…
