Reed-Solomon (RS) codes over GF$(2^m)$ have traditionally been the most popular non-binary codes in almost all practical applications. The distance properties of RS codes result in excellent performance under hard-decision bounded-distance…
In this paper, we prove that explicit FRS codes and multiplicity codes achieve relaxed generalized Singleton bounds for list size $L\ge1.$ Specifically, we show the following: (1) FRS code of length $n$ and rate $R$ over the alphabet…
Galois self-orthogonal (SO) codes are generalizations of Euclidean and Hermitian SO codes. Algebraic geometry (AG) codes are the first known class of linear codes exceeding the Gilbert-Varshamov bound. Both of them have attracted much…
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…
The hull of a linear code is defined as the intersection of the code and its dual. This concept was initially introduced to classify finite projective planes. The hull plays a crucial role in determining the complexity of algorithms used to…
This text contains some notes on the Griesmer bound. In particular, we give a geometric proof of the Griesmer bound for the generalized weights and show that a Solomon--Stiffler type construction attains it if the minimum distance is…
This paper proposes new propagation rules on quantum codes in the entanglement-assisted and in quantum subsystem scenarios. The rules lead to new families of such quantum codes whose parameters are demonstrably optimal. To obtain the…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $G$ a graph. Extending generalized splines are a further extension of generalized splines by allowing vertex labels of $G$ to lie in varying modules rather than in a fixed ring $R$.…
Motivated by an application to database linear querying, such as private information-retrieval protocols, we suggest a fundamental property of linear codes -- the generalized covering radius. The generalized covering-radius hierarchy of a…
We present multi-point algebraic geometric codes overstepping the Gilbert-Varshamov bound. The construction is based on the generalized Hermitian curve introduced by A. Bassa, P. Beelen, A. Garcia, and H. Stichtenoth. These codes are…
We investigate a natural subfamily of twisted linearized Reed--Solomon (TLRS) codes in the sum-rank metric, where the twist is applied only to the constant term. We establish a simple necessary and sufficient condition for these codes to be…
Expander (Tanner) codes combine sparse graphs with local constraints, enabling linear-time decoding and asymptotically good distance--rate tradeoffs. A standard constraint-counting argument yields the global-rate lower bound $R\ge 2r-1$ for…
We prove that any Hermitian self-orthogonal $[n,k,d]_{q^2}$ code gives rise to an $[n,k,d]_{q^2}$ code with $\ell$ dimensional Hermitian hull for $0\le \ell \le k$. We present a new method to construct Hermitian self-orthogonal…
Codes from generalized Hadamard matrices have already been introduced. Here we deal with these codes when the generalized Hadamard matrices are cocyclic. As a consequence, a new class of codes that we call generalized Hadamard full…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) and near maximum distance separable (NMDS) codes have been widely used in various fields such as communication systems, data storage, and quantum codes due to their algebraic properties and excellent…
We define and study a class of Reed-Muller type error-correcting codes obtained from elementary symmetric functions in finitely many variables. We determine the code parameters and higher weight spectra in the simplest cases.
