In coding theory, a very interesting problem (but at the same time, a very difficult one) is to determine the weight distribution of a given code. This problem is even more interesting for cyclic codes, and this is so, mainly because they…
We determine the asymptotic proportion of free modules over finite chain rings with good distance properties and treat the asymptotics in the code length n and the residue field size q separately. We then specialize and apply our technique…
Linear complementary dual codes (or codes with complementary duals) are codes whose intersections with their dual codes are trivial. We study the largest minimum weight $d(n,k)$ among all binary linear complementary dual $[n,k]$ codes. We…
Let $G$ be a graph with a perfect matching. Denote by $f(G)$ the minimum size of a matching in $G$ which is uniquely extendable to a perfect matching in $G$. Diwan (2019) proved by linear algebra that for $d$-hypercube $Q_d$ ($d\geq 2)$,…
A class of optimal three-weight cyclic codes of dimension 3 over any finite field was presented by Vega [Finite Fields Appl., 42 (2016) 23-38]. Shortly thereafter, Heng and Yue [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 62(8) (2016) 4501-4513] generalized…
We introduce and analyse an efficient decoder for the quantum Tanner codes of that can correct adversarial errors of linear weight. Previous decoders for quantum low-density parity-check codes could only handle adversarial errors of weight…
Linear codes with complementary duals are linear codes whose intersection with their duals are trivial, shortly named LCD codes. In this paper we outline a construction for LCD codes over finite fields of order $q$ using weighing matrices…
The complexity of a well-quasi-order (wqo) can be measured through three ordinal invariants: the width as a measure of antichains, height as a measure of chains, and maximal order type as a measure of bad sequences. We study these ordinal…
In this paper, we construct an infinite family of five-weight codes from trace codes over the ring $R=\mathbb{F}_2+u\mathbb{F}_2$, where $u^2=0.$ The trace codes have the algebraic structure of abelian codes. Their Lee weight is computed by…
We describe an algorithm computing an optimal prefix free code for $n$ unsorted positive weights in time within $O(n(1+\lg \alpha))\subseteq O(n\lg n)$, where the alternation $\alpha\in[1..n-1]$ measures the amount of sorting required by…
This work investigates linear precoding over non-singular linear channels with additive white Gaussian noise, with lattice-type inputs. The aim is to maximize the minimum distance of the received lattice points, where the precoder is…
We describe an algorithm computing an optimal prefix free code from $N$ unsorted positive integer weights in time linear in the number of machine words holding those weights. This algorithm takes advantage of common non-algebraic…
In this paper, upper bounds on codes over Gaussian integers, Lipschitz integers and Hurwitz integers with respect to Mannheim metric, Lipschitz and Hurwitz metric are given.
The weight hierarchy of a linear code has been an important research topic in coding theory since Wei's original work in 1991. Choosing $ D=\Big\{(x,y)\in \Big(\F_{p^{s_1}}\times\F_{p^{s_2}}\Big)\Big\backslash\{(0,0)\}: f(x)+g(y)=0\Big\}$…
The determination of the weight distribution of linear codes has been a fascinating problem since the very beginning of coding theory. There has been a lot of research on weight enumerators of special cases, such as self-dual codes and…
A $(p,q)$-ary chain is a special type of chain partition of integers with parts of the form $p^aq^b$ for some fixed integers $p$ and $q$. In this note, we are interested in the maximal weight of such partitions when their parts are distinct…
We introduce a new weight and corresponding metric over finite extension fields for asymmetric error correction. The weight distinguishes between elements from the base field and the ones outside of it, which is motivated by asymmetric…
Linear codes with few weights have applications in consumer electronics, communication, data storage system, secret sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. This paper first generalizes the method of…
In this work, we consider tilings of the Hamming cube and look for metrics which turn the tilings into a perfect code. We consider the family of metrics which are determined by a weight and are compatible with the support of vectors…
A fundamental property of codes, the second-order weight distribution, is proposed to solve the problems such as computing second moments of weight distributions of linear code ensembles. A series of results, parallel to those for weight…
