In the recent work \cite{shi18}, a combinatorial problem concerning linear codes over a finite field $\F_q$ was introduced. In that work the authors studied the weight set of an $[n,k]_q$ linear code, that is the set of non-zero distinct…
A group theoretic framework is introduced that simplifies the description of known quantum error-correcting codes and greatly facilitates the construction of new examples. Codes are given which map 3 qubits to 8 qubits correcting 1 error, 4…
We prove that every $1$-error-correcting code over a finite field can be embedded in a $1$-perfect code of some larger length. Embedding in this context means that the original code is a subcode of the resulting $1$-perfect code and can be…
The study of Armstrong codes is motivated by the problem of understanding complexities of dependencies in relational database systems, where attributes have bounded domains. A $(q,k,n)$-Armstrong code is a $q$-ary code of length $n$ with…
List-decodability of Reed-Solomon codes has received a lot of attention, but the best-possible dependence between the parameters is still not well-understood. In this work, we focus on the case where the list-decoding radius is of the form…
Determining the maximum number of unit vectors in $\mathbb{R}^r$ with no pairwise inner product exceeding $\alpha$ is a fundamental problem in geometry and coding theory. In 1955, Rankin resolved this problem for all $\alpha \leq 0$ and in…
The central problem in sequence reconstruction is to find the minimum number of distinct channel outputs required to uniquely reconstruct the transmitted sequence. According to Levenshtein's work in 2001, this number is determined by the…
Let $A_q(n,d)$ be the maximum order (maximum number of codewords) of a $q$-ary code of length $n$ and Hamming distance at least $d$. And let $A(n,d,w)$ that of a binary code of constant weight $w$. Building on results from algebraic graph…
We study the encoding complexity for quantum error correcting codes with large rate and distance. We prove that random Clifford circuits with $O(n \log^2 n)$ gates can be used to encode $k$ qubits in $n$ qubits with a distance $d$ provided…
One of the main problems in quantum information systems is the presence of errors due to noise, and for this reason quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) play a key role. While most of the known codes are designed for correcting generic…
We consider the problem of estimating the error term $\mathcal{E}_{q}(x)=\big|\mathbb{Z}^{2q+1}\cap\delta_{x}\mathcal{B}\big|-\textit{vol}\big(\mathcal{B}\big)x^{2q+2}$ which occurs in the counting of lattice points in Heisenberg dilates of…
In a recent study [Rohde et al., quant-ph/0603130 (2006)] of several quantum error correcting protocols designed for tolerance against qubit loss, it was shown that these protocols have the undesirable effect of magnifying the effects of…
A set of quantum error correcting codes based on classical Reed-Muller codes is described. The codes have parameters [[n,k,d]] = [[2^r, 2^r - C(r,t) - 2 sum_{i=0}^{t-1} C(r,i), 2^t + 2^{t-1} ]].
It is well known that no quantum error correcting code of rate $R$ can correct adversarial errors on more than a $(1-R)/4$ fraction of symbols. But what if we only require our codes to *approximately* recover the message? We construct…
Motivated by applications in in-vivo DNA storage, we study codes for correcting duplications. A reverse-complement duplication of length $k$ is the insertion of the reversed and complemented copy of a substring of length $k$ adjacent to its…
We present a construction scheme for quantum error correcting codes. The basic ingredients are a graph and a finite abelian group, from which the code can explicitly be obtained. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the graph…
Sum-rank Hamming codes are introduced in this work. They are essentially defined as the longest codes (thus of highest information rate) with minimum sum-rank distance at least $ 3 $ (thus one-error-correcting) for a fixed redundancy $ r $,…
We study the largest possible length $B$ of $(B-1)$-dimensional linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ which can correct up to $t$ errors taken from a restricted set $\mathcal{A}\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^*$. Such codes can be applied to multilevel…
