A linear code with parameters of the form $[n, k, n-k+1]$ is referred to as an MDS (maximum distance separable) code. A linear code with parameters of the form $[n, k, n-k]$ is said to be almost MDS (i.e., almost maximum distance separable)…
Based on the theoretical neuroscience, G. Cotardo and A. Ravagnavi in \cite{CR} introduced a kind of asymmetric binary codes called combinatorial neural codes (CN codes for short), with a "matched metric" $\delta_{r}$ called asymmetric…
Polar codes have received increasing attention in the past decade, and have been selected for the next generation of wireless communication standard. Most research on polar codes has focused on codes constructed from a $2\times2$…
We present families of quantum error-correcting codes which are optimal in the sense that the minimum distance is maximal. These maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are defined over q-dimensional quantum systems, where q is an arbitrary…
Lifted maximum rank distance (MRD) codes, which are constant dimension codes, are considered. It is shown that a lifted MRD code can be represented in such a way that it forms a block design known as a transversal design. A slightly…
We use density evolution to optimize the parameters of binary product codes (PCs) decoded based on the recently introduced iterative bounded distance decoding with scaled reliability. We show that binary PCs with component codes of 3-bit…
We study reliable communication over finite-state channels (FSCs) using Reed--Muller (RM) codes. Building on recent symmetry-based analyses for memoryless channels, we show that a sequence of binary RM codes (with some random scrambling)…
The additive codes may have better parameters than linear codes. However, it is still a challenging problem to efficiently construct additive codes that outperform linear codes, especially those with greater distances than linear codes of…
Just as rank-metric or Gabidulin codes may be used to construct rate-diversity tradeoff optimal space-time codes, a recently introduced generalization for the sum-rank metric -- linearized Reed-Solomon codes -- accomplishes the same in the…
Interest in the hulls of linear codes has been growing rapidly. More is known when the inner product is Euclidean than Hermitian. A shift to the latter is gaining traction. The focus is on a code whose Hermitian hull dimension and dual…
Recently a construction of optimal non-constant dimension subspace codes, also termed projective space codes, has been reported in a paper of Honold-Kiermaier-Kurz. Restricted to binary codes in a 5-dimensional ambient space with minimum…
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…
We introduce Reed-Solomon-Gabidulin codes which is, at the same time, an extension to Reed-Solomon codes on the one hand and Gabidulin codes on the other hand. We prove that our codes have good properties with respect to the minimal…
The optimum distance profiles of linear block codes were studied for increasing or decreasing message length while keeping the minimum distances as large as possible, especially for Golay codes and the second-order Reed-Muller codes, etc.…
Projective Reed-Muller codes(PRM codes) are constructed from the family of projective hypersurfaces of a fixed degree over a finite field $\F_q$. In this paper, we completely determine the minimal distance of the hull of any Projective…
We propose a modified iterative bounded distance decoding of product codes. The proposed algorithm is based on exchanging hard messages iteratively and exploiting channel reliabilities to make hard decisions at each iteration. Performance…
We present methods for computing the distance from a Boolean polynomial on $m$ variables of degree $m-3$ (i.e., a member of the Reed-Muller code $RM(m-3,m)$) to the space of lower-degree polynomials ($RM(m-4,m)$). The methods give…
We revisit the linear programming bounds for the size vs. distance trade-off for binary codes, focusing on the bounds for the almost-balanced case, when all pairwise distances are between $d$ and $n-d$, where $d$ is the code distance and…
Code loops are certain Moufang $2$-loops constructed from doubly even binary codes that play an important role in the construction of local subgroups of sporadic groups. More precisely, code loops are central extensions of the group of…
In this paper, we employ group rings and automorphism groups of binary linear codes to construct new record-breaking binary linear codes. We consider the semidirect product of abelian groups and cyclic groups and use these groups to…
