We use invariant theory of finite groups to study shape enumerators of self-dual linear codes in a finite NRT metric space. We provide a new approach that avoids applying Molien's formula to compute all possible shape enumerators. We also…
The results of [1,2] on linear homogeneous two-weight codes over finite Frobenius rings are exended in two ways: It is shown that certain non-projective two-weight codes give rise to strongly regular graphs in the way described in [1,2].…

We consider the problem of evaluation of the weight enumerator of a binary linear code. We show that the exact evaluation is hard for polynomial hierarchy. More exactly, if WE is an oracle answering the solution of the evaluation problem…
The formal weight enumerators were first introduced by M. Ozeki. They form a ring of invariant polynomials which is similar to that of the weight enumerators of Type II codes. Later, the zeta functions for linear codes were discovered and…

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…
