Fracton models provide examples of novel gapped quantum phases of matter that host intrinsically immobile excitations and therefore lie beyond the conventional notion of topological order. Here, we calculate optimal error thresholds for…
The codewords of weight $10$ of the $[42,21,10]$ extended binary quadratic residue code are shown to hold a design of parameters $3-(42,10,18).$ Its automorphism group is isomorphic to $PSL(2,41)$. Its existence can be explained neither by…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. The factorization of the polynomial $x^{p+1}-1$ over the integer residue ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p^e}$ is pivotal for constructing cyclic codes with Hermitian symmetry, a critical resource for Linear Complementary Dual…
Two isometry groups of combinatorial codes are described: the group of automorphisms and the group of monomial automorphisms, which is the group of those automorphisms that extend to monomial maps. Unlike the case of classical linear codes,…
The toric code can be constructed as a gauge theory of finite groups on oriented two dimensional lattices. Here we construct analogous models with the gauge fields belonging to groupoids, which are categories where every morphism has an…
Self-dual codes have been studied actively because they are connected with mathematical structures including block designs and lattices and have practical applications in quantum error-correcting codes and secret sharing schemes.…
Inspired by, and using methods of optimization derived from classical three dimensional electrostatics, we note a novel beautiful symmetric four dimensional polytope we have found with 80 vertices. We also describe how the method used to…
We give some new explicit examples of putatively optimal projective spherical designs. i.e., ones for which there is numerical evidence that they are of minimal size. These form continuous families, and so have little apparent symmetry in…
Toric varieties and their associated toric codes, as well as determination of their parameters with intersection theory, are presented in the two dimensional case. Linear Secret Sharing Schemes with strong multiplication are constructed…
The systematics of indices of physico-chemical properties of codons and amino acids across the genetic code are examined. Using a simple numerical labelling scheme for nucleic acid bases, data can be fitted as low-order polynomials of the 6…
We consider the problem of constructing dense lattices of R^n with a given automorphism group. We exhibit a family of such lattices of density at least cn/2^n, which matches, up to a multiplicative constant, the best known density of a…
We study a 3D generalization of the toric code model introduced recently by Chamon. This is an exactly solvable spin model with six-qubit nearest neighbor interactions on an FCC lattice whose ground space exhibits topological quantum order.…
Subspace codes, and in particular cyclic subspace codes, have gained significant attention in recent years due to their applications in error correction for random network coding. In this paper, we introduce a new technique for constructing…
In a renormalizable $SO(10)$ theory, all fermion mass matrices are linear combinations of three fundamental types, $M^{10}, M^{\overline{126}}$, and $M^{120}$, whose superscripts indicate their $SO(10)$ transformation properties. We point…
We obtain all possible parameters of Plotkin-optimal two-Lee weight projective codes over $\mathbb{Z}_4,$ together with their weight distributions. We show the existence of codes with these parameters as well as their weight distributions…
The number of atoms in the four ribonucleotides uridine monophosphate, cytidine monophosphate, adenine monophosphate and guanine monophosphate is taken as a key parameter. A mathematical relation describing the condensation of the three…
The Kramer-Mesner method for constructing designs with a prescribed automorphism group $G$ has proven effective many times. In the special case of Steiner designs, the task reduces to solving an exact cover problem, with the advantage that…
In this paper, we show how regular convex 4-polytopes - the analogues of the Platonic solids in four dimensions - can be constructed from three-dimensional considerations concerning the Platonic solids alone. Via the Cartan-Dieudonne…
Recently, the notions of self-orthogonal subspace codes and LCD subspace codes were introduced, and LCD subspace codes obtained from mutually unbiased weighing matrices were studied. In this paper, we provide a method of constructing…
