In this paper, we construct new sequences of asymptotically good convolutional codes. These sequences are obtained from sequences of transitive, self-orthogonal and self-dual block codes that attain the Tsfasman-Vladut-Zink bound.…
We study the asymptotic behavior of a family of algebraic geometry codes, which we call block-transitive, that generalizes the classes of transitive and quasi-transitive codes. We prove, by using towers of algebraic function fields, that…
We show that every self-orthogonal code over $\mathbb F_q$ of length $n$ can be extended to a self-dual code, if there exists self-dual codes of length $n$. Using a family of Galois towers of algebraic function fields we show that over any…
Double Toeplitz (shortly DT) codes are introduced here as a generalization of double circulant codes. We show that such a code is isodual, hence formally self-dual. Self-dual DT codes are characterized as double circulant or double…
Double polycirculant codes are introduced here as a generalization of double circulant codes. When the matrix of the polyshift is a companion matrix of a trinomial, we show that such a code is isodual, hence formally self-dual. Numerical…
We continue the study of the class of binary extended perfect propelinear codes constructed in the previous paper and consider their permutation automorphism (symmetry) groups and Steiner quadruple systems. We show that the automorphism…
The problem of correcting transpositions (or swaps) of consecutive symbols in $ q $-ary strings is studied. Lower bounds on asymptotically achievable rates of codes correcting $ t = \tau n $ transpositions are derived. The first bound is…
This paper contributes to construct double circulant self-dual codes by sextic cyclotomy. Generator matrixes of a family of pure double circulant codes and a family of double circulant codes with boundary are formed from sextic cyclotomic…
Long quasi-cyclic codes of any fixed index $>1$ have been shown to be asymptotically good, depending on Artin primitive root conjecture in (A. Alahmadi, C. G\"uneri, H. Shoaib, P. Sol\'e, 2017). We use this recent result to construct good…
This is a manuscript of a chapter prepared for a book. The good codes possess large information length and large minimum distance. A class of codes is said to be asymptotically good if there exists a positive real $\delta$ such that, for…
In this paper we introduce self-dual cyclic and quantum codes over Z2^{\alpha} x (Z2 + uZ2)^{\beta}. We determine the conditions for any Z2Z2[u]-cyclic code to be self-dual, that is, C = C^{\perp}. Since the binary image of a…
A kind of self-dual quasi-abelian codes of index $2$ over any finite field $F$ is introduced. By counting the number of such codes and the number of the codes of this kind whose relative minimum weights are small, such codes are proved to…
In two previous papers we constructed new families of completely regular codes by concatenation methods. Here we determine cases in which the new codes are completely transitive. For these cases we also find the automorphism groups of such…
Perfect codes obtained by the Vasil'ev--Sch\"onheim construction from a linear base code and quadratic switching functions are transitive and, moreover, propelinear. This gives at least $\exp(cN^2)$ propelinear $1$-perfect codes of length…
Since Massey introduced linear complementary dual (LCD) codes in 1992 and Bhasin et al. later formalized linear complementary pairs (LCPs) of codes - structures with important cryptographic applications - these code families have attracted…
Locally repairable codes have been investigated extensively in recent years due to practical applications in distributed and cloud storage systems. However, there are few asymptotical constructions of locally repairable codes in the…

We show that there are good long binary generalized quasi-cyclic self-dual (either Type I or Type II) codes.
We consider the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ toric code, surface code and Floquet code defined on a non-orientable surface, which can be considered as families of codes extending Shor's 9-qubit code. We investigate the fault-tolerant logical gates of the…
Constructing quantum codes with good parameters and useful transversal gates is a central problem in quantum error correction. In this paper, we continue our work in arXiv:2502.01864 and construct the first family of asymptotically good…
