Subfield codes of linear codes over finite fields have recently received much attention. Some of these codes are optimal and have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes and association schemes. In this paper, the $q$-ary…
A notion of generalized $n$-semimodularity is introduced, which extends that of (sub/super)mod\-ularity in four ways at once. The main result of this paper, stating that every generalized $(n\colon\!2)$-semimodular function on the $n$th…
Using commutative algebra methods we study the generalized minimum distance function (gmd function) and the corresponding generalized footprint function of a graded ideal in a polynomial ring over a field. The number of solutions that a…
We extend a localization result for the $H^{1/2}$ norm by B. Faermann to a wider class of subspaces of $H^{1/2}(\Gamma)$, and we prove an analogous result for the $H^{-1/2}(\Gamma)$ norm, $\Gamma$ being the boundary of a bounded polytopal…
We consider a generalisation of a conjecture by Patterson and Wiedemann from 1983 on the Hamming distance of a function from $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ to $\mathbb{F}_q$ to the set of affine functions from $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ to $\mathbb{F}_q$. We prove…
The problem of understanding whether two given function fields are isomorphic is well-known to be difficult, particularly when the aim is to prove that an isomorphism does not exist. In this paper we investigate a family of maximal function…
It is shown that the fermionic Heisenberg-Weyl algebra with 2N=D fermionic generators is equivalent to the generalized Grassmann algebra with two fractional generators. The 2,3 and 4 dimensional Heisenberg - Weyl algebra is explicitly given…
In this paper we study couples of finite separable extensions of the function field $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ which are arithmetically equivalent, i.e. such that prime ideals of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ decompose with the same inertia degrees in the two…
In this paper we study generalized Gorenstein Arf rings; a class of one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local Arf rings that is strictly contained in the class of Gorenstein rings. We obtain new characterizations and examples of Arf rings, and…
We construct quantum MDS codes with parameters $ [\![ q^2+1,q^2+3-2d,d ]\!] _q$ for all $d \leqslant q+1$, $d \neq q$. These codes are shown to exist by proving that there are classical generalised Reed-Solomon codes which contain their…
A recent construction of linear complementary pairs (LCPs) of algebraic geometry codes is intimately linked to the identification of non-special divisors of small degree within a function field over a finite field. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the…
We propose a new partial decoding algorithm for $h$-interleaved one-point Hermitian codes that can decode-under certain assumptions-an error of relative weight up to $1-(\tfrac{k+g}{n})^{\frac{h}{h+1}}$, where $k$ is the dimension, $n$ the…
In 1998 Hoholdt, van Lint and Pellikaan introduced the concept of a ``weight function'' defined on a F_q-algebra and used it to construct linear codes, obtaining among them the algebraic-geometric (AG) codes supported on one point. Later it…
We develop an algebraic theory of supports for $R$-linear codes of fixed length, where $R$ is a finite commutative unitary ring. A support naturally induces a notion of generalized weights and allows one to associate a monomial ideal to a…
We generalize the unique decoding algorithm for one-point AG codes over the Miura-Kamiya Cab curves proposed by Lee, Bras-Amor\'os and O'Sullivan (2012) to general one-point AG codes, without any assumption. We also extend their unique…
For positive integers $r,n,N:=rn$, we consider the Radon hypergeometric function (Radon HGF) associated with a partition $\lambda$ of $n$ defined on the Grassmannian $Gr(m,N)$ for $r<m<N$, which is obtained as the Radon transform of a…
We study a class of Hermitian metrics on complex manifolds, recently introduced by J. Fu, Z. Wang and D. Wu, which are a generalization of Gauduchon metrics. This class includes the one of Hermitian metrics for which the associated…
Let $\Gamma$ be the Fuchsian group of the first kind. For an even integer $m\ge 4$, we describe the space $H^{m/2}\left(\mathfrak R_\Gamma\right)$ of $m/2$--holomorphic differentials in terms of a subspace $S_m^H(\Gamma)$ of the space of…
We study continued logarithms as introduced by Bill Gosper and studied by J. Borwein et. al.. After providing an overview of the type I and type II generalizations of binary continued logarithms introduced by Borwein et. al., we focus on a…
The $\Z_{p^s}$-additive codes of length $n$ are subgroups of $\Z_{p^s}^n$, and can be seen as a generalization of linear codes over $\Z_2$, $\Z_4$, or $\Z_{2^s}$ in general. A $\Z_{p^s}$-linear generalized Hadamard (GH) code is a GH code…
