In this paper we consider codes in $\mathbb{F}_q^{s\times r}$ with packing radius $R$ regarding the NRT-metric (i.e. when the underlying poset is a disjoint union of chains with the same length) and we establish necessary condition on the…
We propose a new method of constructing q-ary propelinear perfect codes. The approach utilizes permutations of the fixed length q-ary vectors that arise from the automorphisms of the regular subgroups of the affine group. For any prime q it…

A local tester for an error correcting code $C\subseteq \Sigma^{n}$ is a tester that makes $Q$ oracle queries to a given word $w\in \Sigma^n$ and decides to accept or reject the word $w$. An optimal local tester is a local tester that has…

Mixed codes, which are error-correcting codes in the Cartesian product of different-sized spaces, model degrading storage systems well. While such codes have previously been studied for their algebraic properties (e.g., existence of perfect…

We consider weighted Reed-Muller codes over point ensemble $S_1 \times...\times S_m$ where $S_i$ needs not be of the same size as $S_j$. For $m = 2$ we determine optimal weights and analyze in detail what is the impact of the ratio…
