In this work, we study the codes over the integers with locality constraints. We introduce a weighted notion of locality over $\mathbb{Z}/q_1\mathbb{Z} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{Z}/q_n\mathbb{Z}$ and derive a Singleton-like bound for…
Linearized Reed-Solomon (LRS) codes are sum-rank metric codes that fulfill the Singleton bound with equality. In the two extreme cases of the sum-rank metric, they coincide with Reed-Solomon codes (Hamming metric) and Gabidulin codes (rank…
We study subfield-subcodes of Generalized Toric (GT) codes over $\mathbb{F}_{p^s}$. These are the multidimensional analogues of BCH codes, which may be seen as subfield-subcodes of generalized Reed-Solomon codes. We identify polynomial…
Quantum convolutional codes can be used to protect a sequence of qubits of arbitrary length against decoherence. In this paper, we give two new constructions of quantum MDS convolutional codes derived from generalized Reed-Solomon codes and…
Separable codes were introduced to provide protection against illegal redistribution of copyrighted multimedia material. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a code of length $n$ over an alphabet of $q$ letters. The descendant code ${\sf…
This paper investigates the problem of synthesizing joint distributions in the finite-length regime. For a fixed blocklength $n$ and an upper bound on the distribution approximation $\epsilon$, we prove a capacity result for fixed-length…
We investigate additive cyclic codes over the alphabet $\mathbb{F}_{q}\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$, where $q$ is a prime power. First, its generator polynomials and minimal spanning set are determined. Then, examples of $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$-additive…
In prefix coding over an infinite alphabet, methods that consider specific distributions generally consider those that decline more quickly than a power law (e.g., Golomb coding). Particular power-law distributions, however, model many…
We give a new asymptotic upper bound on the size of a code in the Grassmannian space. The bound is better than the upper bounds known previously in the entire range of distances except very large values.
Cyclic codes and their various generalizations, such as quasi-twisted (QT) codes, have a special place in algebraic coding theory. Among other things, many of the best-known or optimal codes have been obtained from these classes. In this…
In this paper upper and lower bounds on the probability of decoding failure under maximum likelihood decoding are derived for different (nonbinary) Raptor code constructions. In particular four different constructions are considered; (i)…
We consider linear error correcting codes associated to higher dimensional projective varieties defined over a finite field. The problem of determining the basic parameters of such codes often leads to some interesting and difficult…
This paper investigates the construction of rank-metric codes with specified Ferrers diagram shapes. These codes play a role in the multilevel construction for subspace codes. A conjecture from 2009 provides an upper bound for the dimension…
New lower bounds on the minimum distance of quasi-twisted codes over finite fields are proposed. They are based on spectral analysis and eigenvalues of polynomial matrices. They generalize the Semenov-Trifonov and Zeh-Ling bounds in a…
We provide a novel framework to study subspace codes for non-coherent communications in wireless networks. To this end, an analog operator channel is defined with inputs and outputs being subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^n$. Then a certain distance…
As a generalization of equiangular lines, equiangular subspaces were first systematically studied by Balla, Dr\"{a}xler, Keevash and Sudakov in 2017. In this paper, we extend their work to $s$-distance subspaces, i.e., to sets of…
Codebooks with small inner-product correlation are applied in many practical applications including direct spread code division multiple access (CDMA) communications, space-time codes and compressed sensing. It is extremely difficult to…
Let $C$ be a linear code of length $n$ and dimension $k$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$. The trace code $\mathrm{Tr}(C)$ is a linear code of the same length $n$ over the subfield $\mathbb{F}_q$. The obvious upper bound for the…
Lifted maximum rank distance (MRD) codes, which are constant dimension codes, are considered. It is shown that a lifted MRD code can be represented in such a way that it forms a block design known as a transversal design. A slightly…
A class of linear block codes which simultaneously generalizes Gabidulin codes and a class of skew cyclic codes is defined. For these codes, both a Hartmann-Tzeng-like bound and a Roos-like bound, with respect to their rank distance, are…
