The Golomb--Welch conjecture states that there are no perfect $e$-error-correcting codes in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ for $n \ge 3$ and $e \ge 2$. In this note, we prove the nonexistence of perfect $2$-error-correcting codes for a certain class of…

In this paper we consider codes in $\mathbb{F}_q^{s\times r}$ with packing radius $R$ regarding the NRT-metric (i.e. when the underlying poset is a disjoint union of chains with the same length) and we establish necessary condition on the…
We consider extended $1$-perfect codes in Hamming graphs $H(n,q)$. Such nontrivial codes are known only when $n=2^k$, $k\geq 1$, $q=2$, or $n=q+2$, $q=2^m$, $m\geq 1$. Recently, Bespalov proved nonexistence of extended $1$-perfect codes for…
It is a standard result in the theory of quantum error-correcting codes that no code of length n can fix more than n/4 arbitrary errors, regardless of the dimension of the coding and encoded Hilbert spaces. However, this bound only applies…

In 1968, Golomb and Welch conjectured that there is no perfect Lee codes with radius $r\ge2$ and dimension $n\ge3$. A diameter perfect code is a natural generalization of the perfect code. In 2011, Etzion (IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory,…

Lee codes have been intensively studied for more than 40 years. Interest in these codes has been triggered by the Golomb-Welch conjecture on the existence of the perfect error-correcting Lee codes. In this paper we deal with the existence…
A permutation code is a nonlinear code whose codewords are permutation of a set of symbols. We consider the use of permutation code in the deletion channel, and consider the symbol-invariant error model, meaning that the values of the…
