This work deals with partial MDS (PMDS) codes, a special class of locally repairable codes, used for distributed storage system. We first show that a known construction of these codes, using Gabidulin codes, can be extended to use any…
Effective and reliable data retrieval is critical for the feasibility of DNA storage, and the development of random access efficiency plays a key role in its practicality and reliability. In this paper, we study the Random Access Problem,…
We provide a construction for quantum codes (hermitian-self-orthogonal codes over GF(4)) starting from cyclic codes over GF(4^m). We also provide examples of these codes some of which meet the known bounds for quantum codes.
In this paper, we investigate $\theta$-skew cyclic codes over the ring $R= \mathbb{F}_4 + v \mathbb{F}_4$, where $v^2=v$ and $\theta$ is a non-trivial automorphism over $\mathbb{F}_4 + v \mathbb{F}_4$. This allows us to describe DNA code…
It has been a great challenge to construct new quantum MDS codes. In particular, it is very hard to construct quantum MDS codes with relatively large minimum distance. So far, except for some sparse lengths, all known $q$-ary quantum MDS…

Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes and near MDS (NMDS) codes are of particular interest in coding theory due to their optimal error-correcting capabilities and wide applications in communication, cryptography, and storage systems. A…
The process of DNA-based data storage (DNA storage for short) can be mathematically modelled as a communication channel, termed DNA storage channel, whose inputs and outputs are sets of unordered sequences. To design error correcting codes…
An important code of length $n^2$ is obtained by taking centralizer of a square matrix over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Twisted centralizer codes, twisted by an element $a \in \mathbb{F}_q$, are also similar type of codes but different…

We consider locally recoverable codes (LRCs) and aim to determine the smallest possible length $n=n_q(k,d,r)$ of a linear $[n,k,d]_q$-code with locality $r$. For $k\le 7$ we exactly determine all values of $n_2(k,d,2)$ and for $k\le 6$ we…
Generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes with arbitrary lengths over the ring $\mathbb{F}_{q}+u\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $u^2=0$, $q=p^n$, $n$ a positive integer and $p$ a prime number, are investigated. By the Chinese Remainder Theorem,…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^{e}$ elements, where $p$ is a prime number and $e \geq 1$ is an integer. In this paper, by means of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes, we construct two new classes of quantum…

We complete the building-up construction for self-dual codes by resolving the open cases over $GF(q)$ with $q \equiv 3 \pmod 4$, and over $\Z_{p^m}$ and Galois rings $\GR(p^m,r)$ with an odd prime $p$ satisfying $p \equiv 3 \pmod 4$ with…
Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$. In this paper, we study reversible cyclic codes of arbitrary length over the ring $ R = \mathbb{F}_q + u \mathbb{F}_q$, where $u^2=0 mod q$. First, we find a unique set of generators for cyclic codes over…
