The purpose of the present article is the study of duals of functional codes on algebraic surfaces. We give a direct geometrical description of them, using differentials. Even if this geometrical description is less trivial, it can be…
The projective space of order $n$ over a finite field $\F_q$ is a set of all subspaces of the vector space $\F_q^{n}$. In this work, we consider error-correcting codes in the projective space, focusing mainly on constant dimension codes. We…
In this paper, we construct codes for local recovery of erasures with high availability and constant-bounded rate from the Hermitian curve. These new codes, called Hermitian-lifted codes, are evaluation codes with evaluation set being the…
Function-correcting codes are designed to reduce redundancy of codes when protecting function values of information against errors. As generalizations of Hamming weights and Lee weights over $ \mathbb{Z}_{4} $, homogeneous weights are used…
Maximum Hermitian rank metric codes were introduced by Schmidt in 2018 and in this paper we propose both interpolation-based encoding and decoding algorithms for this family of codes when the length and the minimum distance of the code are…
We determine conditions on q for the nonexistence of deep holes of the standard Reed-Solomon code of dimension k over F_q generated by polynomials of degree k+d. Our conditions rely on the existence of q-rational points with nonzero,…
In this paper, we introduce a class of functions that assume only a limited number $\lambda$ of values within a given Hamming $\rho$-ball and call them locally $(\rho, \lambda)$-bounded functions. We develop function-correcting codes (FCCs)…
We use the circle method to count $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$-rational points of bounded naive height on a quadric hypersurface $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$, provided that $\mathrm{char}(\mathbb{F}_q)>2$ and $n\ge 3$.…
The theory of algebraic-geometric codes has been developed in the beginning of the 80's after a paper of V.D. Goppa. Given a smooth projective algebraic curve X over a finite field, there are two different constructions of error-correcting…
Intersecting codes are a classical object in coding theory whose rank-metric analogue has recently been introduced. Although the definition formally parallels the Hamming-metric case, the structure and parameter constraints of rank-metric…
This article deals with the existence of hypersurfaces minimizing general shape functionals under certain geometric constraints. We consider as admissible shapes orientable hypersurfaces satisfying a so-called reach condition, also known as…
Among the nondegenerate C^4 hypersurfaces M in R^n, we characterize the rational quadrics as the hypersurfaces that are the least well approximated by rational points. Given M other than a rational quadric, we prove a heuristically sharp…
This paper investigates the construction of rank-metric codes with specified Ferrers diagram shapes. These codes play a role in the multilevel construction for subspace codes. A conjecture from 2009 provides an upper bound for the dimension…
It was conjectured by Edoukou in 2008 that a non-degenerate Hermitian threefold in $\mathbb{P}^4 (\mathbb{F}_{q^2})$ has at most $d(q^5+q^2) + q^3 + 1$ points in common with a threefold of degree $d$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$. He…
For $n\geq 3$, let $\mathscr{M} \subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a compact hypersurface, parametrized by a homogeneous function of degree $d\in \mathbb{R}_{>1}$, with non-vanishing curvature away from the origin. Consider the number…
Canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) is at the core of fast matrix multiplication, a computational problem with widespread implications across several seemingly unrelated problems in computer science. Much recent progress in this field…
The setting of projective systems can be used to study the parameters of a projective linear code $\mathcal{C}$. This can be done by considering the intersections of the point set $\Omega$ defined by the columns of a generating matrix for…
Given a non-singular diagonal cubic hypersurface $X\subset\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ with $\mathrm{char} (\mathbb{F}_q)\neq 3$, we show that the number of rational points of height at most $|P|$ is $O(|P|^{3+\varepsilon})$ for…
Let $X$ be a variety over $\mathbb Q$. We introduce a geometric non-degenerate criterion for $X$ using moduli spaces $M$ over $\mathbb Q$ of abelian varieties. If $X$ is non-degenerate, then we construct via $M$ an open dense moduli space…
The classical Reed-Muller codes over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ are based on evaluations of $m$-variate polynomials of degree at most $d$ over a product set $U^m$, for some $d$ less than $|U|$. Because of their good distance properties,…
