The weight of a coset of a code is the smallest Hamming weight of any vector in the coset. For a linear code of length $n$, we call integral weight spectrum the overall numbers of weight $w$ vectors, $0\le w\le n$, in all the cosets of a…
We study $q$-ary codes with distance defined by a partial order of the coordinates of the codewords. Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) codes in the poset metric have been studied in a number of earlier works. We consider codes that are close…

We consider the weight distributions of the cosets of weight 2 of the generalized $[q+1,q+2-d,d]_q$ doubly extended Reed-Solomon codes (GDRS) of minimum distance $d\ge5$, over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements. For a GDRS…

Generalized Reed-Solomon codes form the most prominent class of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, codes that are optimal in the sense that their minimum distance cannot be improved for a given length and code size. The study of codes…
We introduce the concept of spread of a code, and we specialize it to the case of maximum weight spectrum (MWS) codes. We classify two newly-defined sub-families of MWS codes according to their weight distributions, and completely describe…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are optimal where the minimum distance cannot be improved for a given length and code size. Twisted Reed-Solomon codes over finite fields were introduced in 2017, which are generalization of…

The singleton defect of an $[n,k,d]$ linear code ${\cal C}$ is defined as $s({\cal C})=n-k+1-d$. Codes with $S({\cal C})=0$ are called maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, and codes with $S(\cal C)=S(\cal C ^{\bot})=1$ are called near…
An $[n,k,d]$ linear code is said to be maximum distance separable (MDS) or almost maximum distance separable (AMDS) if $d=n-k+1$ or $d=n-k$, respectively. If a code and its dual code are both AMDS, then the code is said to be near maximum…
