Recently, linear codes with few weights have been constructed and extensively studied. In this paper, for an odd prime p, we determined the complete weight enumerator of two classes of p-ary linear codes constructed from defining set.…
We develop a unified second-order parameterized complexity theory for spaces of integrable functions. This generalizes the well-established case of second-order parameterized complexity theory for spaces of continuous functions.…
It is well known that a random q-ary code of rate \Omega(\epsilon^2) is list decodable up to radius (1 - 1/q - \epsilon) with list sizes on the order of 1/\epsilon^2, with probability 1 - o(1). However, until recently, a similar statement…
In this paper we treat the Fourier coefficients of Siegel Eisenstein series of level $p$ with trivial or quadratic character, for an odd prime $p$. The Euler $p$-factor of the Fourier coefficient is called the ramified Siegel series. First…
We examine regular and irregular repeat-accumulate (RA) codes with repetition degrees which are all even. For these codes and with a particular choice of an interleaver, we give an upper bound on the decoding error probability of a…
Let $(x_n)_{n\geq0}$ be a linear recurrence of order $k\geq2$ satisfying $$x_n=a_1x_{n-1}+a_2x_{n-2}+\dots+a_kx_{n-k}$$ for all integers $n\geq k$, where $a_1,\dots,a_k,x_0,\dots, x_{k-1}\in \mathbb{Z},$ with $a_k\neq0$. In [`The quotient…
Let $(a_n)_{n=0}^\infty$ be a second-order linear recurrence sequence with constant coefficients over the field of $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We study the set of limit points of the sequence of consecutive ratios…
The theta cycle of a modular form modulo a prime $p\geq 5$ is well understood. By contrast, the theta cycle modulo a power of $p$ is still mysterious and experimentally erratic. Here we completely determine the theta cycle of a weight $k <…
In this paper, for an even integer $n\geq 4$ and any positive integer $k$ with ${\rm gcd}(n/2,k)={\rm gcd}(n/2-k,2k)=d$ being odd, a class of $p$-ary codes $\mathcal{C}^k$ is defined and their weight distribution is completely determined,…
We show that the expected value for the linear complexity of $m$-multisequences of length $n$ is E_n^{(m)} = n m/(m+1) + O(1).
We examine the linear complexity and the autocorrelation properties of new quaternary cyclotomic sequences of period 2p. The sequences are constructed via the cyclotomic classes of order four.
In this paper, the construction of finite-length binary sequences whose nonlinear complexity is not less than half of the length is investigated. By characterizing the structure of the sequences, an algorithm is proposed to generate all…
The powers of 3 generate half of the odd residues mod 2^k (k>2), and a sign change yields the other half. In other words: 3 is a semi-primitive root of 1 mod 2^k (k>2). Hence each k-bit residue is n = +/- 3^i.2^j mod 2^k, with unique…
An n-ary k-radius sequence is a finite sequence of elements taken from an alphabet of size n such that any two distinct elements of the alphabet occur within distance k of each other somewhere in the sequence. These sequences were…
The author has previously extended the theory of regular and irregular primes to the setting of arbitrary totally real number fields. It has been conjectured that the Bernoulli numbers, or alternatively the values of the Riemann zeta…
We compute the complexity, z-complexity, and support varieties of the (thick) Kac modules for the Lie superalgebras of type P. We also show the complexity and the z-complexity have geometric interpretations in terms of support and…
Determining deep holes is an important open problem in decoding Reed-Solomon codes. It is well known that the received word is trivially a deep hole if the degree of its Lagrange interpolation polynomial equals the dimension of the…
The autocorrelation and the linear complexity of a key stream sequence in a stream cipher are important cryptographic properties. Many sequences with these good properties have interleaved structure, three classes of binary sequences of…
It is well known that the containment problem (as well as the equivalence problem) for semilinear sets is $\log$-complete in $\Pi_2^p$. It had been shown quite recently that already the containment problem for multi-dimensional linear sets…
In this paper we present a new proof of the following 2010 result of Dubickas, Novikas, and Siurys: Let $(a,b)\in \mathbb{Z}^2$ and let $(x_n)_{n\ge 0}$ be the sequence defined by some initial values $x_0$ and $x_1$ and the second order…
