The weight enumerators (quant-ph/9610040) of a quantum code are quite powerful tools for exploring its structure. As the weight enumerators are quadratic invariants of the code, this suggests the consideration of higher-degree polynomial…
In the 1960s, MacWilliams proved that the Hamming weight enumerator of a linear code over a finite field completely determines, and is determined by, the Hamming weight enumerator of its dual code. In particular, if two linear codes have…
The objective of this paper is to construct a class of linear codes with two nonzero weights and three nonzero weights by using the general trace functions, which weight distributions has been determined. These linear codes contain some…
A binary linear code is called {\em LCD} if it intersects its dual trivially. We show that the coefficients of the joint weight enumerator of such a code with its dual satisfy linear constraints, leading to a new linear programming bound on…
The results of [1,2] on linear homogeneous two-weight codes over finite Frobenius rings are exended in two ways: It is shown that certain non-projective two-weight codes give rise to strongly regular graphs in the way described in [1,2].…
In this series of papers, we propose a theory of enumerative invariants counting self-dual objects in self-dual categories. Ordinary enumerative invariants in abelian categories can be seen as invariants for the structure group $\mathrm{GL}…
We prove an Assmus-Mattson-type theorem for block codes where the alphabet is the vertex set of a commutative association scheme (say, with $s$ classes). This in particular generalizes the Assmus-Mattson-type theorems for…
In this paper, we present a generalization of Hayden's theorem [7, Theorem 4.2] for $G$-codes over finite Frobenius rings. A lattice theoretical form of this generalization is also given. Moreover, Astumi's MacWilliams identity [1, Theorem…
We discuss a class of binary cyclic codes and their dual codes. The minimum distance is determined using algebraic geometry, and an application of Weil's theorem. We relate the weights appearing in the dual codes to the number of rational…
We study the generalized and extended weight enumerator of the q-ary Simplex code and the q-ary first order Reed-Muller code. For our calculations we use that these codes correspond to a projective system containing all the points in a…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $q=p^s$ for a positive integer $s$. For any positive divisor $e$ of $q-1$, we construct an infinite family codes of size $q^{2m}$ with few Lee-weight. These codes are defined as trace codes over the ring…
Special functions, coding theory and $t$-designs have close connections and interesting interplay. A standard approach to constructing $t$-designs is the use of linear codes with certain regularity. The Assmus-Mattson Theorem and the…
A weight-dependent generalization of the binomial theorem for noncommuting variables is presented. This result extends the well-known binomial theorem for q-commuting variables by a generic weight function depending on two integers. For a…
In the present paper, we discuss the class of Type III and Type IV codes from the perspectives of neighbors. Our investigation analogously extends the results originally presented by Dougherty [8] concerning the neighbor graph of binary…
The results of [1,2] on linear homogeneous two-weight codes over finite Frobenius rings are exended in two ways: It is shown that certain non-projective two-weight codes give rise to strongly regular graphs in the way described in [1,2].…
We extend Gleason's theorem to the two-dimensional Hilbert space of a qubit by invoking the standard axiom that describes composite quantum systems. The tensor-product structure allows us to derive density matrices and Born's rule for $d=2$…
In this paper, based on the theory of defining sets, a class of four-weight or five-weight linear codes over Fp is constructed. The complete weight enumerators of the linear codes are determined by means of Weil sums. In some case, there is…
This paper investigates the relation between linear codes and the stabilizer in ${\rm GL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ of their weight enumerators. We prove a result on the finiteness of stabilizers and give a complete classification of linear codes with…
In this paper we study codes where the alphabet is a finite Frobenius bimodule over a finite ring. We discuss the extension property for various weight functions. Employing an entirely character-theoretic approach and a duality theory for…
We construct a class of linear codes by choosing a proper defining set and determine their complete weight enumerators and weight enumerators. The results show that they are at most three-weight codes and they are suitable for applications…
