A pair of linear codes whose intersection is of dimension $\ell$, where $\ell$ is a non-negetive integer, is called an $\ell$-intersection pair of codes. This paper focuses on studying $\ell$-intersection pairs of $\lambda_i$-constacyclic,…
We investigate the asymptotic number of equivalence classes of linear codes with prescribed length and dimension. While the total number of inequivalent codes of a given length has been studied previously, the case where the dimension…
Given a finite field F_q and a positive integer n, a flag is a sequence of nested F_q-subspaces of a vector space F_q^n and a flag code is a nonempty collection of flags. The projected codes of a flag code are the constant dimension codes…
We consider additive codes over GF(4) that are self-dual with respect to the Hermitian trace inner product. Such codes have a well-known interpretation as quantum codes and correspond to isotropic systems. It has also been shown that these…
For every natural number $n\geq 2$ and every finite sequence $L$ of natural numbers, we consider the set $UD_n(L)$ of all uniquely decodable codes over an $n$-letter alphabet with the sequence $L$ as the sequence of code word lengths, as…
The projective space of order $n$ over the finite field $\Fq$, denoted here as $\Ps$, is the set of all subspaces of the vector space $\Fqn$. The projective space can be endowed with distance function $d_S(X,Y) = \dim(X) + \dim(Y) -…
A kind of self-dual quasi-abelian codes of index $2$ over any finite field $F$ is introduced. By counting the number of such codes and the number of the codes of this kind whose relative minimum weights are small, such codes are proved to…
Two infinite sequences A and B of non-negative integers are called additive complements, if their sum contains all sufficiently large integers. Let $A(x)$ and $B(x)$ be the counting functions of A and B. In this paper, we extend the results…
The aim of this work is a systematic investigation of the possible parameters of quasi-perfect (QP) binary and ternary linear codes of small dimensions and preparing a complete classification of all such codes. First we give a list of…
In this note, an intrinsic description of some families of linear codes with symmetries is given, showing that they can be described more generally as quasi group codes, that is, as linear codes allowing a group of permutation automorphisms…
We show that any binary $(n=2^m-3, 2^{n-m}, 3)$ code $C_1$ is a part of an equitable partition (perfect coloring) $\{C_1,C_2,C_3,C_4\}$ of the $n$-cube with the parameters $((0,1,n-1,0)(1,0,n-1,0)(1,1,n-4,2)(0,0,n-1,1))$. Now the…
The decomposition of a quasi-abelian code into shorter linear codes over larger alphabets was given in (Jitman, Ling, (2015)), extending the analogous Chinese remainder decomposition of quasi-cyclic codes (Ling, Sol\'e, (2001)). We give a…
Linear codes for error detection on a q-ary symmetric channel are studied. It is shown that for given dimension k and minimum distance d, there exists a value \mu(d,k) such that if C is a code of length n >= \mu(d,k), then neither C nor its…
A generic construction of linear codes over finite fields has recently received a lot of attention, and many one-weight, two-weight and three-weight codes with good error correcting capability have been produced with this generic approach.…
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…
An equidistant code is a code in the Hamming space such that two distinct codewords have the same Hamming distance. This paper investigates the bounds for equidistant codes in Hamming spaces.
We study finite-field extensions that preserve the same support as the parity-check matrices defining a given binary CSS code. Here, an LDPC-CSS code refers to a CSS code whose parity-check matrices are orthogonal in the sense that each…
The hull of a linear code $C$ is the intersection of $C$ with its dual. To the best of our knowledge, there are very few constructions of binary linear codes with the hull dimension $\ge 2$ except for self-orthogonal codes. We propose a…
In this paper we describe a class of codes called {\it permutation codes}. This class of codes is a generalization of cyclic codes and quasi-cyclic codes. We also give some examples of optimal permutation codes over binary, ternary, and…
The $\Z_{p^s}$-additive codes of length $n$ are subgroups of $\Z_{p^s}^n$, and can be seen as a generalization of linear codes over $\Z_2$, $\Z_4$, or $\Z_{2^s}$ in general. A $\Z_{p^s}$-linear generalized Hadamard (GH) code is a GH code…
