The $q$-ary block codes with two distances $d$ and $d+1$ are considered. Several constructions of such codes are given, as in the linear case all codes can be obtained by a simple modification of linear equidistant codes. Upper bounds for…

Locally repairable codes (LRCs) have emerged as an important coding scheme in distributed storage systems (DSSs) with relatively low repair cost by accessing fewer non-failure nodes. Theoretical bounds and optimal constructions of LRCs have…

We consider locally recoverable codes (LRCs) and aim to determine the smallest possible length $n=n_q(k,d,r)$ of a linear $[n,k,d]_q$-code with locality $r$. For $k\le 7$ we exactly determine all values of $n_2(k,d,2)$ and for $k\le 6$ we…

An optimal constant-composition or constant-weight code of weight $w$ has linear size if and only if its distance $d$ is at least $2w-1$. When $d\geq 2w$, the determination of the exact size of such a constant-composition or constant-weight…

We consider the problem of efficient construction of q-ary 2-deletion correcting codes with low redundancy. We show that our construction requires less redundancy than any existing efficiently encodable q-ary 2-deletion correcting codes.…

A $q$-ary code $C$ of length $n$ is a set of $n$-dimensional vectors (code words) with entries in $\{0, \ldots, q-1\}$. We say $C$ has constant weight $w$ if each code word has exactly $w$ nonzero entries. We say $C$ has minimum distance…

Linear codes with a few weights are very important in coding theory and have attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, we present a construction of $q$-ary linear codes from trace and norm functions over finite fields. The weight…

Codes for storage systems aim to minimize the repair locality, which is the number of disks (or nodes) that participate in the repair of a single failed disk. Simultaneously, the code must sustain a high rate, operate on a small finite…
