We propose a unified theory of generalized weights for linear codes endowed with an arbitrary distance. Instead of relying on supports or anticodes, the weights of a code are defined via the intersections of the code with a chosen family of…
In this paper, new few weights linear codes over the local ring $R=\mathbb{F}_p+u\mathbb{F}_p+v\mathbb{F}_p+uv\mathbb{F}_p,$ with $u^2=v^2=0, uv=vu,$ are constructed by using the trace function defined over an extension ring of degree $m.$…
It is well known that there is a deep relationship between codes and lattices. Concepts from coding theory are related to concepts of lattice theory as, for example, weight enumerators to theta series, MacWilliams identity to Jacobi…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $q=p^s$ for a positive integer $s$. For any positive divisor $e$ of $q-1$, we construct an infinite family codes of size $q^{2m}$ with few Lee-weight. These codes are defined as trace codes over the ring…
We construct an infinite family of two-Lee-weight and three-Lee-weight codes over the chain ring $\mathbb{F}_p+u\mathbb{F}_p.$ They have the algebraic structure of abelian codes. Their Lee weight distribution is computed by using Gauss…
There is a local ring $E$ of order $4,$ without identity for the multiplication, defined by generators and relations as $E=\langle a,b \mid 2a=2b=0,\, a^2=a,\, b^2=b,\,ab=a,\, ba=b\rangle.$ We study a special construction of self-orthogonal…
Upper bounds are given for the weight distribution of binary weakly self-dual codes. To get these new bounds, we introduce a novel method of utilizing unitary operations on Hilbert spaces. This method is motivated by recent progress on…
Codebooks with small inner-product correlation have application in unitary space-time modulations, multiple description coding over erasure channels, direct spread code division multiple access communications, compressed sensing, and coding…
Upper bounds on the maximum number of codewords in a binary code of a given length and minimum Hamming distance are considered. New bounds are derived by a combination of linear programming and counting arguments. Some of these bounds…
Latroids were introduced by Vertigan, who associated a latroid to a linear block code and showed that its Tutte polynomial determines the weight enumerator of the code. We associate a latroid to a code over a ring or a field endowed with a…
In this paper, we further extend the study of function-correcting codes in the homogeneous metric over a chain ring $\mathbb{Z}_{2^s}$ for broader classes of functions, namely, locally bounded functions and linear functions, and for weight…
We consider the geometric problem of determining the maximum number $n_q(r,h,f;s)$ of $(h-1)$-spaces in the projective space $\operatorname{PG}(r-1,q)$ such that each subspace of codimension $f$ does contain at most $s$ elements. In coding…
We consider codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^s}$ with the extended Lee weight. We find Singleton bounds with respect to this weight and define MLDS and MLDR codes accordingly. We also consider the kernels of these codes and the notion of…
In this paper, we consider some structures of linear codes over the ring $\mathcal{R}_k=R[v_1,\dots,v_k],$ where $v_i^2=v_i$ forall $i=1,\dots,k),$ and $R$ is a finite commutative Frobenius ring.
We prove an Assmus-Mattson-type theorem for block codes where the alphabet is the vertex set of a commutative association scheme (say, with $s$ classes). This in particular generalizes the Assmus-Mattson-type theorems for…
In this paper, the homogeneous weights of matrix product codes over finite principal ideal rings are studied and a lower bound for the minimum homogeneous weights of such matrix product codes is obtained.
We introduce a universal weight system (a function on chord diagrams satisfying the $4$-term relation) taking values in the ring of polynomials in infinitely many variables whose particular specializations are weight systems associated with…
Projective metrics on vector spaces over finite fields, introduced by Gabidulin and Simonis in 1997, generalize classical metrics in coding theory like the Hamming metric, rank metric, and combinatorial metrics. While these specific metrics…
We study weight modules of the Lie algebra $W_2$ of vector fields on ${\mathbb C}^2$. A classification of all simple weight modules of $W_2$ with a uniformly bounded set of weight multiplicities is provided. To achieve this classification…
Linear codes over finite rings become one of hot topics in coding theory after Hommons et al.([4], 1994) discovered that several remarkable nonlinear binary codes with some linear-like properties are the images of Gray map of linear codes…
