The $p$-ary code associated with the incidence structure of points and $t$-spaces in a projective space $\mathrm{PG}(m,q)$, where $q=p^h$, is the $\mathbb{F}_p$-subspace generated by the incidence vectors of the blocks of this design. The…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this paper, we construct $2(2p-3)$ classes of codes over the ring $R=\Bbb F_p+u\Bbb F_p,u^2=0$, which are associated with down sets. We compute the Lee weight distributions of the $2(2p-3)$ classes of…
In this paper, we examine the binary linear codes with respect to Hamming metric from incidence matrix of a unit graph $G(\mathbb{Z}_{n})$ with vertex set is $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ being adjacent if and only…
A fundamental property of codes, the second-order weight distribution, is proposed to solve the problems such as computing second moments of weight distributions of linear code ensembles. A series of results, parallel to those for weight…
Partitions of the binary linear Hamming code into Preparata-like codes are known to induce line-parallelisms of PG$(n, 2)$. In this paper, we show that if $P$ is any Preparata-like code contained in the binary linear Hamming code $H$ of the…
The projective general linear group $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathrm{GF}(2^m))$ acts as a $3$-transitive permutation group on the set of points of the projective line. The first objective of this paper is to prove that all linear codes over…
A classical method of constructing a linear code over $\gf(q)$ with a $t$-design is to use the incidence matrix of the $t$-design as a generator matrix over $\gf(q)$ of the code. This approach has been extensively investigated in the…
Let $C_{n-1}(n,q)$ be the code arising from the incidence of points and hyperplanes in the Desarguesian projective space PG($n,q$). Recently, Polverino and Zullo proved that within this code, all non-zero code words of weight at most…
Stopping sets and stopping set distribution of a linear code play an important role in the performance analysis of iterative decoding for this linear code. Let $C$ be an $[n,k]$ linear code over $\f$ with parity-check matrix $H$, where the…
We investigate linear and additive codes in partially ordered Hamming-like spaces that satisfy the extension property, meaning that automorphisms of ideals extend to automorphisms of the poset. The codes are naturally described in terms of…
The weight distribution and weight hierarchy of linear codes are two important research topics in coding theory. In this paper, by choosing proper defining sets from inhomogeneous quadratic functions over $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{2},$ we construct…
In this study, linear codes having their Lee-weight distributions over the semi-local ring $\mathbb{F}_{q}+u\mathbb{F}_{q}$ with $u^{2}=1$ are constructed using the defining set and Gauss sums for an odd prime $q $. Moreover, we derive…
A structure theorem of the group codes which are relative projective for the subgroup $\lbrace 1 \rbrace$ of $G$ is given. With this, we show that all such relative projective group codes in a fixed group algebra $RG$ are in bijection to…
In this work, we introduce $(r,i)$-regular fat linear sets, which are defined as linear sets containing exactly $r$ points of weight $i$ and all other points of weight one. This notion generalizes and unifies existing constructions;…
We consider a class of linear codes associated to projective algebraic varieties defined by the vanishing of minors of a fixed size of a generic matrix. It is seen that the resulting code has only a small number of distinct weights. The…
In this paper we find the second generalized Hamming weight of some evaluation codes arising from a projective torus, and it allows to compute the second generalized Hamming weight of the codes parameterized by the edges of any complete…
Over the past few years, the codes $\mathcal{C}_{n-1}(n,q)$ arising from the incidence of points and hyperplanes in the projective space $\text{PG}(n,q)$ attracted a lot of attention. In particular, small weight codewords of…
In the past few years, linear codes with few weights and their weight analysis have been widely studied. In this paper, we further investigate a class of two-weight or three-weight linear codes from defining sets and determine their weight…
We construct two-weight sets in PG$(3n-1,q)$, $n\geq2$ with the same weights as those that would arise from the blow-up of a maximal $q$-arc in PG$(2,q^n)$. The construction is of particular interest when $q$ is odd, as it is well known…
The Generalized Hamming weights and their relative version, which generalize the minimum distance of a linear code, are relevant to numerous applications, including coding on the wire-tap channel of type II, $t$-resilient functions,…
