There are numerous scenarios in source coding where not only the code length but the importance of each value should also be taken into account. Different from the traditional coding theorems, by adding the importance weights for the length…
We illustrate how computer-aided methods can be used to investigate the fundamental limits of the caching systems, which are significantly different from the conventional analytical approach usually seen in the information theory…

We construct linear codes over the finite field Fq from arbitrary simplicial complexes, establishing a connection between topological properties and fundamental coding parameters. First, we study the behaviour of the weights of codewords…
This work develops a geometric framework for constructing quantum error-correcting codes from weighted projective and orbifold structures, integrating algebraic geometry, divisor theory, and the CSS stabilizer formalism. Beginning with…
We present a bound on the size of linear codes. This bound is independent of other known bounds, e.g. the Griesmer bound.
Upper bounds on the minimum Lee distance of codes that are linear over ${\mathbb Z}_q$, $q=p^t$, $p$ prime are discussed. The bounds are Singleton like, depending on the length, rank, and alphabet size of the code. Codes meeting such bounds…
Cyclic codes are an important class of linear codes. Bounding the minimum distance of cyclic codes is a long-standing research topic in coding theory, and several well-known and basic results have been developed on this topic. Recently,…
The study of linear codes over a finite field of odd cardinality, derived from determinantal varieties obtained from symmetric matrices of bounded rank, was initiated in a recent paper by the authors. There, one found the minimum distance…
In this paper, we prove that with high probability, random Reed-Solomon codes approach the half-Singleton bound - the optimal rate versus error tradeoff for linear insdel codes - with linear-sized alphabets. More precisely, we prove that,…
We develop a duality theory of locally recoverable codes (LRCs) and apply it to establish a series of new bounds on their parameters. We introduce and study a refined notion of weight distribution that captures the code's locality. Using a…
This paper examines linear binary codes capable of correcting one or more errors. For the single-error-correcting case, it is shown that the Hamming bound is achieved by a constructive method, and an exact expression for the minimal…
In this paper we show the usability of the Gray code with constant weight words for computing linear combinations of codewords. This can lead to a big improvement of the computation time for finding the minimum distance of a code. We have…
The concepts of pseudocodeword and pseudoweight play a fundamental role in the finite-length analysis of LDPC codes. The pseudoredundancy of a binary linear code is defined as the minimum number of rows in a parity-check matrix such that…
In this paper, we study the minimum distances of binary linear codes with parity check matrices formed from subset inclusion matrices $W_{t,n,k}$, representing $t$-element subsets versus $k$-element subsets of an $n$-element set. We provide…
The problem of finding code distance has been long studied for the generic ensembles of linear codes and led to several algorithms that substantially reduce exponential complexity of this task. However, no asymptotic complexity bounds are…
In their 2007 book, Tsfasman and Vl\v{a}du\c{t} invite the reader to reinterpret existing coding theory results through the lens of projective systems. Redefining linear codes as projective systems provides a geometric vantage point. In…
Recently, network error correction coding (NEC) has been studied extensively. Several bounds in classical coding theory have been extended to network error correction coding, especially the Singleton bound. In this paper, following the…
For nonnegative integers $n,d,w$, let $A(n,d,w)$ be the maximum size of a code $C \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ with constant weight $w$ and minimum distance at least $d$. We consider two semidefinite programs based on quadruples of code words…
This paper improves the antiGriesmer bound for linear anticodes previously established by Chen and Xie (Journal of Algebra, 673 (2025) 304-320). While the original bound required the code length to satisfy $n < q^{k-1}$ and the dual code to…
