We develop a framework for constructing quantum error-correcting codes and logical gates for three types of spaces -- composite permutation-invariant spaces of many qubits or qudits, composite constant-excitation Fock-state spaces of many…
The hull of a linear code over finite fields is the intersection of the code and its dual, which was introduced by Assmus and Key. In this paper, we develop a method to construct linear codes with trivial hull ( LCD codes) and…
In this paper convolutional codes with cyclic structure will be investigated. These codes can be understood as left principal ideals in a suitable skew-polynomial ring. It has been shown in [3] that only certain combinations of the…
Quasi-cyclic codes form an important class of algebraic codes that includes cyclic codes as a special subclass. This chapter focuses on the algebraic structure of quasi-cyclic codes, first. Based on these structural properties, some…
We study codes with a single check element derived from group rings, namely, checkable codes. The notion of a code-checkable group ring is introduced. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a group ring to be code-checkable are given in…
Combinatorial batch codes were defined by Paterson, Stinson, and Wei as purely combinatorial versions of the batch codes introduced by Ishai, Kushilevitz, Ostrovsky, and Sahai. There are $n$ items and $m$ servers, each of which stores a…
In this text we develop the formalism of products and powers of linear codes under componentwise multiplication. As an expanded version of the author's talk at AGCT-14, focus is put mostly on basic properties and descriptive statements that…
In this paper, we consider some structures of linear codes over the ring $\mathcal{R}_k=R[v_1,\dots,v_k],$ where $v_i^2=v_i$ forall $i=1,\dots,k),$ and $R$ is a finite commutative Frobenius ring.
Product codes are a class of quantum error correcting codes built from two or more constituent codes. They have recently gained prominence for a breakthrough yielding quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes with favorable scaling of…
In various application fields, such as fluid-, cell-, or crowd-simulations, spatial data structures are very important. They answer nearest neighbor queries which are instrumental in performing necessary computations for, e.g., taking the…
In this paper we show the usability of the Gray code with constant weight words for computing linear combinations of codewords. This can lead to a big improvement of the computation time for finding the minimum distance of a code. We have…
We prove combinatorially some identities related to Euler's partition identity (the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts). They were conjectured by Beck and proved by Andrews…
We give a polynomial representation for additive cyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$. This representation will be applied to uniquely present each additive cyclic code by at most two generator polynomials. We determine the generator…
Construction of subspace codes with good parameters is one of the most important problems in random network coding. In this paper we present first a generalization of the concept of cyclic subspaces codes and further we show that the usual…
Spherical codes, with a rich history spanning nearly five centuries, remain an area of active mathematical exploration and are far from being fully understood. These codes, which arise naturally in problems of geometry, combinatorics, and…
In the last 60 years coding theory has been studied a lot over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ or commutative rings $\mathcal{R}$ with unity. Although in $1993$, a study on the classification of the rings (not necessarily commutative or ring…
Classical block designs are important combinatorial structures with a wide range of applications in Computer Science and Statistics. Here we give a new abstract description of block designs based on the arrow category construction. We show…
In this work, we define a modification of a bordered construction for self-dual codes which utilises $\lambda$-circulant matrices. We provide the necessary conditions for the construction to produce self-dual codes over finite commutative…
We give a modern computational introduction to the S,K combinators invented by Moses Sch\"onfinkel in 1920, and present a variety of new results and ideas about combinators. We explore the spectrum of behavior obtained with small combinator…
We address the problems of constructing quantum convolutional codes (QCCs) and of encoding them. The first construction is a CSS-type construction which allows us to find QCCs of rate 2/4. The second construction yields a quantum…
