We devise an analytically simple as well as invertible approximate expression, which describes the relation between the minimum distance of a binary code and the corresponding maximum attainable code-rate. For example, for a rate-(1/4),…
The focus of this paper is on linear, binary codes with locality having locality parameter $r$, that are capable of recovering from $t\geq 2$ erasures and that moreover, have short block length. Both sequential and parallel (through…

An expander code is a binary linear code whose parity-check matrix is the bi-adjacency matrix of a bipartite expander graph. We provide a new formula for the minimum distance of such codes. We also provide a new proof of the result that…

We consider linear codes over a finite field of odd characteristic, derived from determinantal varieties, obtained from symmetric matrices of bounded ranks. A formula for the weight of a code word is derived. Using this formula, we have…
In the 2017 paper by Dougherty, Kim, Ozkaya, Sok, and Sol\'e about the linear programming bound for LCD codes the notion $\mathrm{LCD}[n,k]$ was defined for binary LCD $[n,k]$-codes. We find the formula for $\mathrm{LCD}[n,2]$.
We study linear codes that maximize minimum distance subject to arbitrary support constraints on the parity-check matrix. Such constraints arise naturally in the design of LDPC codes, locally repairable codes, and hardware-constrained…
Cyclic codes are an important class of linear codes. Bounding the minimum distance of cyclic codes is a long-standing research topic in coding theory, and several well-known and basic results have been developed on this topic. Recently,…
This paper provides a construction of non-binary LDPC convolutional codes, which generalizes the work of Robinson and Bernstein. The sets of integers forming an $(n-1,w)$-difference triangle set are used as supports of the columns of rate…
The classical way of extending an $[n, k, d]$ linear code $\C$ is to add an overall parity-check coordinate to each codeword of the linear code $\C$. This extended code, denoted by $\overline{\C}(-\bone)$ and called the standardly extended…
As a result of their applications in network coding, space-time coding, and coding for criss-cross errors, matrix codes have garnered significant attention; in various contexts, these codes have also been termed rank-metric codes,…
Binary codes are constructed from incidence matrices of hypergraphs. A combinatroial description is given for the minimum distances of such codes via a combinatorial tool called ``eonv". This combinatorial approach provides a faster…

This paper presents a combinatorial construction of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes from difference covering arrays. While the original construction by Gallagher was by randomly allocating bits in a sparse parity-check matrix, over…
We derive bounds on the asymptotic density of parity-check matrices and the achievable rates of binary linear block codes transmitted over memoryless binary-input output-symmetric (MBIOS) channels. The lower bounds on the density of…

We introduce Berman-intersection-dual Berman (BiD) codes. These are abelian codes of length $3^m$ that can be constructed using Kronecker products of a $3 \times 3$ kernel matrix. BiD codes offer minimum distance close to that of…
It is reasonable to expect the theory of quantum codes to be simplified in the case of codes of minimum distance 2; thus, it makes sense to examine such codes in the hopes that techniques that prove effective there will generalize. With…
