The main purpose of this paper is to further study the structure, parameters and constructions of the recently introduced minimal codes in the sum-rank metric. These objects form a bridge between the classical minimal codes in the Hamming…
The second weight of the Generalized Reed-Muller code of order $d$ over the finite field with $q$ elements is now known for $d <q$ and $d>(n-1)(q-1)$. In this paper, we determine the second weight for the other values of $d$ which are not…
We present a novel technique for encoding and decoding constant weight binary codes that uses a geometric interpretation of the codebook. Our technique is based on embedding the codebook in a Euclidean space of dimension equal to the weight…
A new construction for constant weight codes is presented. The codes are constructed from $k$-dimensional subspaces of the vector space $\F_q^n$. These subspaces form a constant dimension code in the Grassmannian space $\cG_q(n,k)$. Some of…
In this manuscript, we introduce a new class of linear codes, called affine symplectic Grassmann codes, and determine their parameters, automorphism group, minimum distance codewords, dual code and other key features. These linear codes are…
Projective Reed-Muller codes were introduced by Lachaud, in 1988 and their dimension and minimum distance were determined by Serre and S{\o}rensen in 1991. In coding theory one is also interested in the higher Hamming weights, to study the…
The Generalized Hamming weights and their relative version, which generalize the minimum distance of a linear code, are relevant to numerous applications, including coding on the wire-tap channel of type II, $t$-resilient functions,…
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…
In this paper, we completely determine the number of solutions to $ \operatorname{Tr}^{q^2}_q(bx+b)+c=0, x\in \mu_{q+1}\backslash \{-1\}$ for all $b\in \mathbb{F}_{q^2}, c\in\mathbb{F}_{q}$. As an application, we can give the weight…
We construct two Lefschetz decompositions of the derived category of coherent sheaves on the Grassmannian of $k$-dimensional subspaces in a vector space of dimension $n$. Both of them admit a Lefschetz basis consisting of equivariant vector…
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, we characterize the existence of binary self-orthogonal codes meeting the Griesmer bound by employing Solomon-Stiffler codes and some related residual codes. Second, using such a…
In this paper non-trivial non-linear binary systematic AMDS codes are classified in terms of their weight distributions, employing only elementary techniques. In particular, we show that their length and minimum distance completely…
This paper provides new and improved Singleton-like bounds for Lee metric codes over integer residue rings. We derive the bounds using various novel definitions of generalized Lee weights based on different notions of a support of a linear…
We present a new bound for the minimum distance of a general primary linear code. For affine variety codes defined from generalised C_{ab} curves the new bound often improves dramatically on the Feng-Rao bound for primary codes. The method…
The polar orthogonal Grassmann code $C(\mathbb{O}_{3,6})$ is the linear code associated to the Grassmann embedding of the Dual Polar space of $Q^+(5,q)$. In this manuscript we study the minimum distance of this embedding. We prove that the…
Recently a systematic investigation of monoids of sequences of plus-minus weighted zero-sum sequences had been started, which is among others motivated by applications to monoids of norms of algebraic integers. In the current paper these…
We address the maximum size of binary codes and binary constant weight codes with few distances. Previous works established a number of bounds for these quantities as well as the exact values for a range of small code lengths. As our main…
In this manuscript we show that the second Feng-Rao number of any telescopic numerical semigroup agrees with the multiplicity of the semigroup. To achieve this result we first study the behavior of Ap\'ery sets under gluings of numerical…
Determining the weight distributions of the projective Reed-Muller codes is a very hard problem and has been studied extensively in the literature. In this article, we provide an alternative proof of the second weight of the projective…
Computing the minimum distance of a linear code is one of the fundamental problems in algorithmic coding theory. Vardy [14] showed that it is an \np-hard problem for general linear codes. In practice, one often uses codes with additional…
