In this paper we present two reductions between variants of the Code Equivalence problem. We give polynomial-time Karp reductions from Permutation Code Equivalence (PCE) to both Linear Code Equivalence (LCE) and Signed Permutation Code…
The paper deals with the problem of deciding if two finite-dimensional linear subspaces over an arbitrary field are identical up to a permutation of the coordinates. This problem is referred to as the permutation code equivalence. We show…
The linear code equivalence (LCE) problem is shown to be equivalent to the point set equivalence (PSE) problem, i.e., the problem to check whether two sets of points in a projective space over a finite field differ by a linear change of…
A set of linearly constrained permutation matrices are proposed for constructing a class of permutation codes. Making use of linear constraints imposed on the permutation matrices, we can formulate a minimum Euclidian distance decoding…
In this paper, we introduce a new way of constructing and decoding multipermutation codes. Multipermutations are permutations of a multiset that generally consist of duplicate entries. We first introduce a class of binary matrices called…
Linear programming (LP) decoding approximates maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding of a linear block code by relaxing the equivalent ML integer programming (IP) problem into a more easily solved LP problem. The LP problem is defined by a set of…
We call a linear code $C$ with length $n$ over a field $F$, a linear complementary equi-dual code, when there exists a linear code $D$ over $F$ such that $D$ is permutation equivalent to $C^\perp$ and $(C,D)$ is a linear complementary pair…
The System of Linear Equations Problem (SLEP) is specified by a complex invertible matrix $A$, the condition number $\kappa$ of $A$, a vector $b$, a Hermitian matrix $M$ and an accuracy $\epsilon$, and the task is to estimate $x^\dagger…
Linear codes have been an interesting subject of study for many years, as linear codes with few weights have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, a class of…
We introduce alphabet-permutation (AP) codes, a new family of error-correcting codes defined by iteratively applying random coordinate-wise permutations to a fixed initial word. A special case recovers random additive codes and random…
Linear codes have been an interesting subject of study for many years. Recently, linear codes with few weights have been constructed and extensively studied. In this paper, for an odd prime p, a class of three-weight linear codes over Fp…
In this work, we consider adaptive linear programming (ALP) decoding of linear codes over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of size $p$ where $p$ is a prime. In particular, we provide a general construction of valid inequalities for the…
One way of suggesting that an NP problem may not be NP-complete is to show that it is in the class UP. We suggest an analogous new approach---weaker in strength of evidence but more broadly applicable---to suggesting that concrete~NP…
In the recent years, the notion of rank metric in the context of coding theory has known many interesting developments in terms of applications such as space time coding, network coding or public key cryptography. These applications raised…
To determine if two lists of numbers are the same set, we sort both lists and see if we get the same result. The sorted list is a canonical form for the equivalence relation of set equality. Other canonical forms arise in graph isomorphism…

The equivalence test is a main part in any classification problem. It helps to prove bounds for the main parameters of the considered combinatorial structures and to study their properties. In this paper, we present algorithms for…
