The binary primitive BCH codes are cyclic and are constructed by choosing a subset of the cyclotomic cosets. Which subset is chosen determines the dimension, the minimum distance and the weight distribution of the BCH code. We construct…

A new method of constructing optimum constant weight codes over F_2 based on a generalized $(u, u+v)$ construction is presented. We present a new method of constructing superimposed code $C_{(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_I)}^{(h_1, h_2, \cdots, h_I)}$…

Let A(q,n,d) denote the maximum size of a q-ary code of length n and distance d. We study the minimum asymptotic redundancy \rho(q,n,d)=n-log_q A(q,n,d) as n grows while q and d are fixed. For any d and q<=d-1, long algebraic codes are…

We give improved lower bounds for binary $3$-query locally correctable codes (3-LCCs) $C \colon \{0,1\}^k \rightarrow \{0,1\}^n$. Specifically, we prove: (1) If $C$ is a linear design 3-LCC, then $n \geq 2^{(1 - o(1))\sqrt{k} }$. A design…
