We study Reed--Solomon codes over arbitrary fields, inspired by several recent papers dealing with Gabidulin codes over fields of characteristic zero. Over the field of rational numbers, we derive bounds on the coefficient growth during…
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…
We consider generalizations of Reed-Muller codes, toric codes, and codes from certain plane curves, such as those defined by norm and trace functions on finite fields. In each case we are interested in codes defined by evaluating arbitrary…
In this work, we investigate additive complementary dual (ACD) codes and their construction over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ with respect to the trace inner products, where $q$ is a prime power. First, we associate an additive code…
The classical family of $[n,k]_q$ Reed-Solomon codes over a field $\F_q$ consist of the evaluations of polynomials $f \in \F_q[X]$ of degree $< k$ at $n$ distinct field elements. In this work, we consider a closely related family of codes,…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power and $D$ be the set of monic irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb F_q[x]$ which can be written as a composition of monic degree two polynomials. In this paper we prove that $D$ has a natural regular structure by…
Multi-dimensional cyclic code is a natural generalization of cyclic code. In an earlier paper we explored two-dimensional constacyclic codes over finite fields. Following the same technique, here we characterize the algebraic structure of…
We provide a new construction of $[n,9,n-9]_q$ near-MDS codes arising from elliptic curves with $n$ ${\mathbb F}_q$-rational points. Furthermore we show that in some cases these codes cannot be extended to longer near-MDS codes.
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements and denote by $\theta : \mathbb{F}_q\to\mathbb{F}_q$ an automorphism of $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, we deal with linear codes of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ invariant under a semi-linear map…
In this paper, we describe a procedure for constructing $q$--ary $[N,3,N-2]$--MDS codes, of length $N\leq q+1$ (for $q$ odd) or $N\leq q+2$ (for $q$ even), using a set of non--degenerate Hermitian forms in $PG(2,q^2)$.
This paper is devoted to the study of the construction of new quantum MDS codes. Based on constacyclic codes over Fq2 , we derive four new families of quantum MDS codes, one of which is an explicit generalization of the construction given…
Generalizing even-like duadic cyclic codes and Type-II duadic negacyclic codes, we introduce even-like (i.e.,Type-II) and odd-like duadic constacyclic codes, and study their properties and existence. We show that even-like duadic…
The weights in MDS codes of length n and dimension k over the finite field GF(q) are studied. Up to some explicit exceptional cases, the MDS codes with parameters given by the MDS conjecture are shown to contain all k weights in the range…
We support some evidence that a long additive MDS code over a finite field must be equivalent to a linear code. More precisely, let $C$ be an $\mathbb F_q$-linear $(n,q^{hk},n-k+1)_{q^h}$ MDS code over $\mathbb F_{q^h}$. If $k=3$, $h \in…
In this paper, we produce two new classes of entanglement-assisted quantum MDS codes (EAQMDS codes) with length $n|q^2-1$ and $n|q^2+1$ via cyclic codes over finite fields of odd characteristic. Among our constructions there are many EAQMDS…
Self-dual codes over finite fields and over some finite rings have been of interest and extensively studied due to their nice algebraic structures and wide applications. Recently, characterization and enumeration of Euclidean self-dual…
Reed-Solomon (RS) codes are among the most ubiquitous codes due to their good parameters as well as efficient encoding and decoding procedures. However, RS codes suffer from having a fixed length. In many applications where the length is…
In this paper, we construct new families of convolutional codes. Such codes are obtained by means of algebraic geometry codes. Additionally, more families of convolutional codes are constructed by means of puncturing, extending, expanding…
The hull of a linear code is the intersection of itself with its dual code with respect to certain inner product. Both Euclidean and Hermitian hulls are of theorical and practical significance. In this paper, we construct several new…
We introduce two constructions of additive codes over finite fields. Both constructions start with a linear code over a field with $q$ elements and give additive codes over the field with $q^h$ elements whose minimum distance is…
