In this work, we determine new linear equations for the weight distribution of linear codes over finite chain rings. The identities are determined by counting the number of some special submatrices of the parity-check matrix of the code.…
In this paper, we propose and study $r$-minimal codes, a natural extension of minimal codes which have been extensively studied with respect to Hamming metric, rank metric and sum-rank metric. We first propose $r$-minimal codes in a general…
Just as the Hamming weight spectrum of a linear block code sheds light on the performance of a maximum likelihood decoder, the pseudo-weight spectrum provides insight into the performance of a linear programming decoder. Using properties of…
This paper deals with the problem of increasing the minimum distance of a linear code by adding one or more columns to the generator matrix. Several methods to compute extensions of linear codes are presented. Many codes improving the…
There are many results on the minimum distance of a cyclic code of the form that if a certain set T is a subset of the defining set of the code, then the minimum distance of the code is greater than some integer t. This includes the BCH,…

We propose a new method for constructing small-bias spaces through a combination of Hermitian codes. For a class of parameters our multisets are much faster to construct than what can be achieved by use of the traditional algebraic…
Trellises are crucial graphical representations of codes. While conventional trellises are well understood, the general theory of (tail-biting) trellises is still under development. Iterative decoding concretely motivates such theory. In…
Linear codes with a few weights have been widely investigated in recent years. In this paper, we mainly use Gauss sums to represent the Hamming weights of a class of $q$-ary linear codes under some certain conditions, where $q$ is a power…
In this short note we give and discuss a general multilinear expression of the structure function of an arbitrary semicoherent system in terms of its minimal path and cut sets. We also examine the link between the number of minimal path and…

Determining the largest size, or equivalently finding the lowest redundancy, of q-ary codes for given length and minimum distance is one of the central and fundamental problems in coding theory. Inspired by the construction of…
Linear codes are widely employed in communication systems, consumer electronics, and storage devices. All linear codes over finite fields can be generated by a generator matrix. Due to this, the generator matrix approach is called a…
A characterization of a class of optimal three-weight cyclic codes of dimension 3 over any finite field was recently presented in [10]. Shortly after this, a generalization for the sufficient numerical conditions of such characterization…
We give one more proof of the first linear programming bound for binary codes, following the line of work initiated by Friedman and Tillich. The new argument is somewhat similar to previous proofs, but we believe it to be both simpler and…
A Lattice is a partially ordered set where both least upper bound and greatest lower bound of any pair of elements are unique and exist within the set. K\"{o}tter and Kschischang proved that codes in the linear lattice can be used for error…
We present new constructions of binary quantum codes from quaternary linear Hermitian self-dual codes. Our main ingredients for these constructions are nearly self-orthogonal cyclic or duadic codes over F_4. An infinite family of…
