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…

Let $A(n, d)$ denote the maximum size of a binary code of length $n$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$. Studying $A(n, d)$, including efforts to determine it as well to derive bounds on $A(n, d)$ for large $n$'s, is one of the most…
For any graph~\(G,\) a set of vertices~\({\cal V}\) is said to be dominating if every vertex of~\(G\) contains at least one node of~\(G\) and separating if each vertex~\(v\) contains a unique neighbour~\(u_v \in {\cal V}\) that is adjacent…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph and let $r\ge 1$ be an integer. For a set $D \subseteq V$, define $N_r[x] = \{y \in V: d(x, y) \leq r\}$ and $D_r(x) = N_r[x] \cap D$, where $d(x,y)$ denotes the number of edges in any shortest path between $x$ and…

By a (latin) unitrade, we call a set of vertices of the Hamming graph that is intersects with every maximal clique in $0$ or $2$ vertices. A bitrade is a bipartite unitrade, that is, a unitrade splittable into two independent sets. We study…
A code is a subset of the vertex set of a Hamming graph. The set of $s$-neighbours of a code is the set of all vertices at Hamming distance $s$ from their nearest codeword. A code $C$ is $s$-elusive if there exists a distinct code $C'$ that…
We solve several first questions in the table of small parameters of completely regular (CR) codes in Hamming graphs $H(n,q)$. The most uplifting result is the existence of a $\{13,6,1;1,6,9\}$-CR code in $H(n,2)$, $n\ge 13$. We also…
In the present paper we introduce and study finite point subsets of a special kind, called optimum distributions, in the n-dimensional unit cube. Such distributions are closely related with known (delta,s,n)-nets of low discrepancy. It…
An equidistant code is a code in the Hamming space such that two distinct codewords have the same Hamming distance. This paper investigates the bounds for equidistant codes in Hamming spaces.
An $r$-identifying code in a graph $G = (V,E)$ is a subset $C \subseteq V$ such that for each $u \in V$ the intersection of $C$ and the ball of radius $r$ centered at $u$ is non-empty and unique. Previously, $r$-identifying codes have been…
An identifying code is a subset of vertices of a graph such that each vertex is uniquely determined by its neighbourhood within the identifying code. If $\M(G)$ denotes the minimum size of an identifying code of a graph $G$, it was…
