Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are a class of codes designed for the local correction of erasures. They have received considerable attention in recent years due to their applications in distributed storage. Most existing results on LRCs do…
We study a new class of codes over Z_2 x Z_2 which we call L-codes. They arise as a natural fifth step in a series of analogies between Kleinian codes, binary codes, lattices and vertex operator algebras. This analogy will be explained in…
Recently, a construction of group divisible designs (GDDs) derived from the decoding of quadratic residue (QR) codes was given. In this paper, we extend the idea to obtain a new family of GDDs, which is also involved with a well-known…
It is known that some good linear codes over a finite ring (R-linear codes) arise from interesting point constellations in certain projective geometries. For example, the expurgated Nordstrom-Robinson code, a nonlinear binary [14,6,6]-code…
In this article, we construct new non-binary quantum codes from skew constacyclic codes over finite commutative non-chain ring $\mathcal{R}= \mathbb{F}_{p^m}[v]/\langle v^3 =v \rangle$ where $p$ is an odd prime and $m \geq 1$. In order to…
Locally repairable codes which are optimal with respect to the bound presented by Prakash et al. are considered. New upper bounds on the length of such optimal codes are derived. The new bounds both improve and generalize previously known…

This research announcement describes in very rough terms methods and a computer language under development, which can be used to prove the nonexistence of binary linear codes. Over a hundred new results have been obtained by the author. For…
The Reed-Muller codes are a family of error-correcting codes that have been widely studied in coding theory. In 2020, Wei Yan and Sian-Jheng Lin introduced a variant of Reed-Muller codes so called symmetric Reed-Muller codes. We investigate…
Building on previous results of Xing, we give new lower bounds on the rate of intersecting codes over large alphabets. The proof is constructive, and uses algebraic geometry, although nothing beyond the basic theory of linear systems on…
We investigate group coding for arbitrary finite groups acting linearly on a vector space. These yield robust codes based on real or complex matrix groups. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for correct subgroup decoding using…
The aim of this paper is to determine the algebraic structure of multidimensional cyclic codes over a finite chain ring $\mathfrak{R}$. An algorithm to find the generator polynomials of $n$ dimensional ($n$D) cyclic codes of length…
In this paper we construct infinite families of non-linear maximum rank distance codes by using the setting of bilinear forms of a finite vector space. We also give a geometric description of such codes by using the cyclic model for the…
Many $q$-ary stabilizer quantum codes can be constructed from Hermitian self-orthogonal $q^2$-ary linear codes. This result can be generalized to $q^{2 m}$-ary linear codes, $m > 1$. We give a result for easily obtaining quantum codes from…
Dihedral codes, particular cases of quasi-cyclic codes, have a nice algebraic structure which allows to store them efficiently. In this paper, we investigate it and prove some lower bounds on their dimension and minimum distance, in analogy…
Cyclic codes, as a crucial subclass of linear codes, exhibit broad applications in communication systems, data storage systems, and consumer electronics, primarily attributed to their well-structured algebraic properties. Let $p$ denote an…
We obtain a classification of the finite two-generated cyclic-by-abelian groups of prime-power order. For that we associate to each such group $G$ a list $\inv(G)$ of numerical group invariants which determines the isomorphism type of $G$.…
Cyclic codes are among the most important families of codes in coding theory for both theoretical and practical reasons. Despite their prominence and intensive research on cyclic codes for over a half century, there are still open problems…
We use groups with triality to construct a series of nonassociative Moufang loops. Certain members of this series contain an abelian normal subloop with the corresponding quotient being a cyclic group. In particular, we give a new series 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…
