A linear code of length $n$ over a finite chain ring $R$ with residue field $\F_q$ is a $R$-submodule of $R^n$. A $R$-linear code is a code over $\F_q$ (not necessarily linear) which is the generalized Gray map image of a linear code over…
The goal of this text is to understand and prove a formula stated by Salmon, which gives the first terms of some Taylor expansion of the discriminant of a plane algebraic curve. Salmon uses his formula to derive various enumerative…
Linear codes have been an interesting subject of study for many years, as linear codes with few weights have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, a class of…
We determine a condition on the minimum Hamming weight of some special abelian group codes and, as a consequence of this result, we establish that any such code is, up to permutational equivalence, a subspace of the direct sum of $s$ copies…
This paper investigates the generalized rank weights, with a definition implied by the study of the generalized rank weight enumerator. We study rank metric codes over $L$, where $L$ is a finite Galois extension of a field $K$. This is a…
Upper and lower bounds on the largest number of weights in a cyclic code of given length, dimension and alphabet are given. An application to irreducible cyclic codes is considered. Sharper upper bounds are given for the special cyclic…
Rank weights and generalized rank weights have been proven to characterize error and erasure correction, and information leakage in linear network coding, in the same way as Hamming weights and generalized Hamming weights describe classical…
We present a new general method for performing basic arithmetic in the finite field~$\mathbb{F}_p$ for any prime $p>2$ by using traditional binary operations over~$\mathbb{F}_2$. Our new approach is efficient and competitive with current…
We give a lower bound of $\Omega(\sqrt n)$ on the unambiguous randomised parity-query complexity of the approximate majority problem -- that is, on the lowest randomised parity-query complexity of any function over $\{0,1\}^n$ whose value…
In this paper, we study several definitions of generalized rank weights for arbitrary finite extensions of fields. We prove that all these definitions coincide, generalizing known results for extensions of finite fields.
We show how the theory of affine geometries over the ring ${\mathbb Z}/\langle q - 1\rangle$ can be used to understand the properties of toric and generalized toric codes over ${\mathbb F}_q$. The minimum distance of these codes is strongly…

We obtain certain algebraic invariants relevant to study codes on subgroups of weighted projective tori inside an $n$-dimensional weighted projective space. As application, we compute all the main parameters of generalized toric codes on…
We give results on the question of code optimality for linear codes over finite Frobenius rings for the homogeneous weight. This article improves on the existing Plotkin bound derived in an earlier paper, and suggests a version of a…
We consider the problem of deriving upper bounds on the parameters of sum-rank-metric codes, with focus on their dimension and block length. The sum-rank metric is a combination of the Hamming and the rank metric, and most of the available…
We present a construction of 1-perfect binary codes, which gives a new lower bound on the number of such codes. We conjecture that this lower bound is asymptotically tight.
The evaluation of the minimum distance of linear block codes remains an open problem in coding theory, and it is not easy to determine its true value by classical methods, for this reason the problem has been solved in the literature with…
Locally Repairable Codes (LRC's) based on generalised quadrangles were introduced by Pamies-Juarez, Hollmann and Oggier in \cite{PaHoOg2013}, and bounds on the repairability and availability were derived. In this paper, we determine the…
In this article, we obtain several new weighted bounds for the numerical radius of a Hilbert space operator. The significance of the obtained results is the way they generalize many existing results in the literature; where certain values…
We consider the class of linear antipodal two-weight rank metric codes and discuss their properties and characterization in terms of $t$-spreads. It is shown that the dimension of such codes is $2$ and the minimum rank distance is at least…
