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…
Reed-Muller (RM) codes are conjectured to achieve the capacity of any binary-input memoryless symmetric (BMS) channel, and are observed to have a comparable performance to that of random codes in terms of scaling laws. On the negative side,…
Coding theory and $t$-designs have close connections and interesting interplay. In this paper, we first introduce a class of ternary linear codes and study their parameters. We then focus on their three-weight subcodes with a special weight…
Lifted Reed-Solomon codes, introduced by Guo, Kopparty and Sudan in 2013, are known as one of the few families of high-rate locally correctable codes. They are built through the evaluation over the affine space of multivariate polynomials…
We contribute to the knowledge of linear codes from special polynomials and functions, which have been studied intensively in the past few years. Such codes have several applications in secret sharing, authentication codes, association…
New quaternary Plotkin constructions are given and are used to obtain new families of quaternary codes. The parameters of the obtained codes, such as the length, the dimension and the minimum distance are studied. Using these constructions…
Relative generalized Hamming weights (RGHWs) of a linear code respect to a linear subcode determine the security of the linear ramp secret sharing scheme based on the code. They can be used to express the information leakage of the secret…
In this note, we reveal a relation between the weight distribution of a concatenated code ensemble based on the Plotkin construction and those of its component codes. The relation may find applications in the calculation of the ensemble…
Linearized Reed-Solomon codes are defined. Higher weight distribution of those codes are determined.
Let $p$ be a prime number. Irreducible cyclic codes of length $p^2-1$ and dimension $2$ over the integers modulo $p^h$ are shown to have exactly two nonzero Hamming weights. The construction uses the Galois ring of characteristic $p^h$ and…
In [2] we show how to construct information sets for Reed-Muller codes only in terms of their basic parameters. In this work we deal with the corresponding problem for q-ary Generalized Reed-Muller codes of first and second order. We see…
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…
The weight hierarchy of generalized Reed-Muller codes over arbitrary finite fields was determined by Heijnen and Pellikaan. In this paper we produce curves over finite fields with many points which are closely related to this weight…
The aim of this work is to algebraically describe the relative generalized Hamming weights of evaluation codes. We give a lower bound for these weights in terms of a footprint bound. We prove that this bound can be sharp. We compute the…
Affine Grassmann codes are a variant of generalized Reed-Muller codes and are closely related to Grassmann codes. These codes were introduced in a recent work [2]. Here we consider, more generally, affine Grassmann codes of a given level.…

Boolean functions can be used to construct binary linear codes in many ways, and vice versa. The objective of this short article is to point out a connection between the weight distributions of all projective binary linear codes and the…
We use the relations between quadrics, trace codes and algebraic curves to construct algebraic curves over finite fields with many points and to compute generalized Hamming weights of codes.
