Algebraic geometry codes or Goppa codes are defined with places of degree one. In constructing generalised algebraic geometry codes places of higher degree are used. In this paper we present 41 new codes over GF(16) which improve on the…

We show how the theory of affine geometries over the ring ${\mathbb Z}/\langle q - 1\rangle$ can be used to understand the properties of toric and generalized toric codes over ${\mathbb F}_q$. The minimum distance of these codes is strongly…
This paper is a general survey of literature on Goppa-type codes from higher dimensional algebraic varieties. The construction and several techniques for estimating the minimum distance are described first. Codes from various classes of…
In this paper we compute the order (or Feng-Rao) bound on the minimum distance of one-point algebraic geometry codes, when the Weierstrass semigroup at the point Q is an Arf semigroup. The results developed to that purpose also provide the…
In this article, the minimum distance of the dual $C^{\bot}$ of a functional code $C$ on an arbitrary dimensional variety $X$ over a finite field $\F_q$ is studied. The approach consists in finding minimal configurations of points on $X$…
In this article we prove that a class of Goppa codes whose Goppa polynomial is of the form $g(x) = x + x^q + \cdots + x^{q^{m-1}}$ where $m \geq 3$ (i.e. $g(x)$ is a trace polynomial from a field extension of degree $m \geq 3$) has a better…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $s> 0$ an integer. In this short note, we investigate one-point geometric Goppa codes associated with an elementary abelian $p$-extension of $\mathbb{F}_{p^{s}}(x)$. We determine their dimension and the exact…
In this paper we studied generalization of Hermitian function field proposed by A.Garcia and H.Stichtenoth. We calculated a Weierstrass semigroup of the point at infinity for the case q=2, r>=3. It turned out that unlike Hermitian case, we…
We extend the construction of GAG codes to the case of evaluation codes. We estimate the minimum distance of these extended evaluation codes and we describe the connection to the one-point GAG codes.
Generalized Goppa codes are defined by a code locator set $\mathcal{L}$ of polynomials and a Goppa polynomial $G(x)$. When the degree of all code locator polynomials in $\mathcal{L}$ is one, generalized Goppa codes are classical Goppa…
We generalize the Griesmer bound in the case of systematic codes over a field of size q greater than the distance d of the code. We also generalize the Griesmer bound in the case of any systematic code of distance 2,3,4 and in the case of…
We prove a new bound for the minimum distance of geometric Goppa codes that generalizes two previous improved bounds. We include examples of the bound to one and two point codes over both the Suzuki and Hermitian curves.
We show that the free distance, as a function on a space parameterizing a family of convolutional codes, is a lower-semicontinuous function and that, therefore, the property of being Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) is an open condition.…
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…
The order bound for the minimum distance of algebraic geometry codes was originally defined for the duals of one-point codes and later generalized for arbitrary algebraic geometry codes. Another bound of order type for the minimum distance…

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…
