Lifted maximum rank distance (MRD) codes, which are constant dimension codes, are considered. It is shown that a lifted MRD code can be represented in such a way that it forms a block design known as a transversal design. A slightly…

Let $p$ be a prime such that $p \equiv 2$ or $3$ mod $5$. Linear block codes over the non-commutative matrix ring of $2 \times 2$ matrices over the prime field $GF(p)$ endowed with the Bachoc weight are derived as isometric images of linear…

A codeword is associated to a linearized polynomial. The weight distribution of the codewords is determined as the linearized polynomial varies in a family of fixed degree. There is a corresponding result on Wenger graphs from linearized…
Upper bounds are given for the weight distribution of binary weakly self-dual codes. To get these new bounds, we introduce a novel method of utilizing unitary operations on Hilbert spaces. This method is motivated by recent progress on…
We investigate the maximum number \( L_{\mathrm{rk}}(n, m, k, q) \) of distinct nonzero rank weights that an \( \mathbb{F}_{q^m} \)-linear rank-metric code of dimension \( k \) in \( \mathbb{F}_{q^m}^n \) can attain. We determine the exact…
In this paper, we introduce code distances, a new family of invariants for linear codes. We establish some properties and prove bounds on the code distances, and show that they are not invariants of the matroid (for a linear block code) or…
We derive a recursive formula determing the weight distribution of the [n=(q^m-1)/(q-1), n-m, 3] Hamming code H(m,q), when (m, q-1)=1. Here q is a prime power. The proof is based on Moisio's idea of using Pless power moment identity…
