The interrelation between the cyclic structure of an ideal, i.e., a cyclic code over Galois field $GF(q)$, $q>2$, and its classes of proportional elements is considered. This relation is used in order to define the code's weight structure.…
Constacyclic codes over finite fields are of theoretical importance as they are closely related to a number of areas of mathematics such as algebra, algebraic geometry, graph theory, combinatorial designs and number theory. However, the…
We consider locally repairable codes over small fields and propose constructions of optimal cyclic and linear codes in terms of the dimension for a given distance and length. Four new constructions of optimal linear codes over small fields…
The square $C^{*2}$ of a linear error correcting code $C$ is the linear code spanned by the component-wise products of every pair of (non-necessarily distinct) words in $C$. Squares of codes have gained attention for several applications…
Pseudo-geometric designs are combinatorial designs which share the same parameters as a finite geometry design, but which are not isomorphic to that design. As far as we know, many pseudo-geometric designs have been constructed by the…
A new Gray map which is both an isometry and a weight preserving map from R=F_2+vF_2+v^2F_2 to (F_2)^3 is defined. A construction for quantum error correcting codes from cyclic codes over finite ring R=F_2+vF_2+v^2F_2, v^3=v is given. The…
In a recent work, Bombin, Duclos-Cianci, and Poulin showed that every local translationally invariant 2D topological stabilizer code is locally equivalent to a finite number of copies of Kitaev's toric code. For 2D color codes, Delfosse…
Recently, Lin and Pryadko presented the quantum two-block group algebra codes, a generalization of bicycle codes obtained from Cayley graphs of non-Abelian groups. We notice that their construction is naturally suitable to obtain a quantum…
In this paper, we construct self-dual codes from a construction that involves 2x2 block circulant matrices, group rings and a reverse circulant matrix. We provide conditions whereby this construction can yield self-dual codes. We construct…
In this paper, we first consider the iterated skew polynomial ring $\mathscr{R}[z_1;\tau_1,\delta_{\tau_1}]$\\$[z_2;\tau_2,\delta_{\tau_2}]$, where $\mathscr{R}$ is a finite ring with unity. Then we use this structure for the construction…
Quasi-twisted (QT) codes generalize several important families of linear codes, including cyclic, constacyclic, and quasi-cyclic codes. Despite their potential, to the best of our knowledge, there exists no efficient decoding algorithm for…
Surface and color codes are two forms of topological quantum error correction in two spatial dimensions with complementary properties. Surface codes have lower-depth error detection circuits and well-developed decoders to interpret and…
A code is said to be two-weight if the non-zero codewords have only two different a weight w1 and w2. Two-weight codes are closely related to strongly regular graphs. In this paper. It is shown that a consta-cyclic code of composite length…
Practically good error-correcting codes should have good parameters and efficient decoding algorithms. Some algebraically defined good codes such as cyclic codes, Reed-Solomon codes, and Reed-Muller codes have nice decoding algorithms.…
Cyclic codes are an interesting class of linear codes due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms as well as their theoretical importance. BCH codes form a subclass of cyclic codes and are very important in both theory and…
We formulate a bounded distance decoding strategy applicable to all stabilizer codes including both CSS and non-CSS code-families. The framework emerges out of the local Clifford equivalence between arbitrary stabilizer states and graph…
Like classical block codes, a locally repairable code also obeys the Singleton-type bound (we call a locally repairable code {\it optimal} if it achieves the Singleton-type bound). In the breakthrough work of \cite{TB14}, several classes of…
An important code of length $n^2$ is obtained by taking centralizer of a square matrix over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Twisted centralizer codes, twisted by an element $a \in \mathbb{F}_q$, are also similar type of codes but different…
Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) codes are a versatile quantum error-correcting family built out of commuting $X$- and $Z$-type checks. We introduce CSS-like codes on $G$-valued qudits for any finite group $G$ that reduce to qubit CSS codes for…
An identifying code $C$ of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that any two distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct closed neighbourhoods within $C$. These codes have been widely studied for over two decades. We give an improvement…
