In this paper, two classes of quantum MDS codes are constructed. The main tools are multiplicative structures on finite fields. Carefully choosing different cosets can make the corresponding generalized Reed-Solomon codes Hermitian…
We characterize Product-MDS pairs of linear codes, i.e.\ pairs of codes $C,D$ whose product under coordinatewise multiplication has maximum possible minimum distance as a function of the code length and the dimensions $\dim C, \dim D$. We…
The mds (maximum distance separable) conjecture claims that a nontrivial linear mds $[n,k]$ code over the finite field $GF(q)$ satisfies $n \leq (q + 1)$, except when $q$ is even and $k = 3$ or $k = q- 1$ in which case it satisfies $n \leq…
In this paper, we study a class of subcodes of codimension $1$ in the $[n,k+1]_q$ generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes, whose generator matrix is derived by removing the row of degree $k-r$ from the generator matrix of the $[n,k+1]_q$ GRS…

In this paper, we first consider the iterated skew polynomial ring $\mathscr{R}[z_1;\tau_1,\delta_{\tau_1}]$\\$[z_2;\tau_2,\delta_{\tau_2}]$, where $\mathscr{R}$ is a finite ring with unity. Then we use this structure for the construction…
Symbol-pair codes introduced by Cassuto and Blaum (2010) are designed to protect against pair errors in symbol-pair read channels. The higher the minimum pair distance, the more pair errors the code can correct. MDS symbol-pair codes are…
MDS codes have garnered significant attention due to their wide applications in practice. To date, most known MDS codes are equivalent to Reed-Solomon codes. The construction of non-Reed-Solomon (non-RS) type MDS codes has emerged as an…
Linear codes with complementary duals (LCD) have a great deal of significance amongst linear codes. Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are also an important class of linear codes since they achieve the greatest error correcting and…
