A class of scattered linearized polynomials covering infinitely many field extensions is exhibited. More precisely, the $q$-polynomial over $\mathbb F_{q^6}$, $q \equiv 1\pmod 4$ described in arXiv:1906.05611, arXiv:1910.02278 is…
In this paper, we consider the Reed-Muller (RM) codes. For the first order RM code, we prove that it is unique in the sense that any linear code with the same length, dimension and minimum distance must be the first order RM code; For the…
Maximally recoverable codes are a class of codes which recover from all potentially recoverable erasure patterns given the locality constraints of the code. In earlier works, these codes have been studied in the context of codes with…
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,…
A cyclic codes of length $n$ over the rings $Z_{2^{m}}$ of integer of modulo $2^{m}$ is a linear code with property that if the codeword $(c_0,c_1,...,c_{n-1})\in \mathcal{C}$ then the cyclic shift $(c_1,c_2,...,c_0)\in \mathcal{C}$.…

We provide a new construction of $[n,9,n-9]_q$ near-MDS codes arising from elliptic curves with $n$ ${\mathbb F}_q$-rational points. Furthermore we show that in some cases these codes cannot be extended to longer near-MDS codes.
A code is called a $q$-query locally decodable code (LDC) if there is a randomized decoding algorithm that, given an index $i$ and a received word $w$ close to an encoding of a message $x$, outputs $x_i$ by querying only at most $q$…
Flag codes generalize constant dimension codes by considering sequences of nested subspaces with prescribed dimensions as codewords. A comprehensive construction, which unites cyclic orbit flag codes, yields two families of flag codes on…
New asymptotic upper bounds are presented on the rate of sequences of locally repairable codes (LRCs) with a prescribed relative minimum distance and locality over a finite field $F$. The bounds apply to LRCs in which the recovery functions…
In this work complete caps in $PG(N,q)$ of size $O(q^{\frac{N-1}{2}}\log^{300} q)$ are obtained by probabilistic methods. This gives an upper bound asymptotically very close to the trivial lower bound $\sqrt{2}q^{\frac{N-1}{2}}$ and it…
Let $\cal M$ denote the set ${\cal S}_{n, q}$ of $n \times n$ symmetric matrices with entries in ${\rm GF}(q)$ or the set ${\cal H}_{n, q^2}$ of $n \times n$ Hermitian matrices whose elements are in ${\rm GF}(q^2)$. Then $\cal M$ equipped…
