Recently, linear codes constructed from defining sets have been studied extensively. They may have nice parameters if the defining set is chosen properly. Let $ m >2$ be a positive integer. For an odd prime $ p $, let $ r=p^m $ and…
The homogeneous metric can be viewed as a natural extension of the Hamming metric to finite chain rings. It distinguishes between three types of elements: zero, non-zero elements in the socle, and elements outside the socle. Since the…
The weighted-Hamming metric generalizes the Hamming metric by assigning different weights to blocks of coordinates. It is well-suited for applications such as coding over independent parallel channels, each of which has a different level of…
Let $\mathrm{Sym}_q(m)$ be the space of symmetric matrices in $\mathbb{F}_q^{m\times m}$. A subspace of $\mathrm{Sym}_q(m)$ equipped with the rank distance is called a symmetric rank-metric code. In this paper we study the covering…
