Recently, minimal linear codes have been extensively studied due to their applications in secret sharing schemes, secure two-party computations, and so on. Constructing minimal linear codes violating the Ashikhmin-Barg condition and then…
In previous work, we demonstrated how decoding of a non-binary linear code could be formulated as a linear-programming problem. In this paper, we study different polytopes for use with linear-programming decoding, and show that for many…
The binary Hamming codes with parameters $[2^m-1, 2^m-1-m, 3]$ are perfect. Their extended codes have parameters $[2^m, 2^m-1-m, 4]$ and are distance-optimal. The first objective of this paper is to construct a class of binary linear codes…
In this paper, the construction of finite-length binary sequences whose nonlinear complexity is not less than half of the length is investigated. By characterizing the structure of the sequences, an algorithm is proposed to generate all…
We construct new linear codes with high minimum distance d. In at least 12 cases these codes improve the minimum distance of the previously known best linear codes for fixed parameters n,k. Among these new codes there is an optimal ternary…
Partial spread is important in finite geometry and can be used to construct linear codes. From the results in (Designs, Codes and Cryptography 90:1-15, 2022) by Xia Li, Qin Yue and Deng Tang, we know that if the number of the elements in a…
First, we state a generalization of the minimum-distance bound for PIR codes. Then we describe a construction for linear PIR codes using packing designs and use it to construct some new 5-PIR codes. Finally, we show that no encoder (linear…
This paper is concerned with learners who aim to learn patterns in infinite binary sequences: shown longer and longer initial segments of a binary sequence, they either attempt to predict whether the next bit will be a 0 or will be a 1 or…
This paper studies \emph{linear} and \emph{affine} error-correcting codes for correcting synchronization errors such as insertions and deletions. We call such codes linear/affine insdel codes. Linear codes that can correct even a single…
We re-examine previous constructions of infinite binary words containing few distinct squares with the goal of finding the "simplest", in a certain sense. We exhibit several new constructions. Rather than using tedious case-based arguments…
This paper's central theme is to prove the existence of an n-algebra whose multiplication cannot be expressed employing any binary operation. Furthermore, to prove if two algebras are not isomorphic, this property does not hold for…
Linear codes with few weights have applications in consumer electronics, communication, data storage system, secret sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. This paper first generalizes the method of…
Binary constant weight codes have important applications and have been studied for many years. Optimal or near-optimal binary constant weight codes of small lengths have been determined. In this paper we propose a new construction of…
We address the maximum size of binary codes and binary constant weight codes with few distances. Previous works established a number of bounds for these quantities as well as the exact values for a range of small code lengths. As our main…
An explicit formula for a weight enumerator of linear-congruence codes is provided. This extends the work of Bibak and Milenkovic [IEEE ISIT (2018) 431-435] addressing the binary case to the non-binary case. Furthermore, the extension…
Linear codes have been an interesting topic in both theory and practice for many years. In this paper, a class of $q$-ary linear codes with few weights are presented and their weight distributions are determined using Gauss periods. Some of…
We consider $q$-ary (linear and nonlinear) block codes with exactly two distances: $d$ and $d+\delta$. Several combinatorial constructions of optimal such codes are given. In the linear (but not necessary projective) case, we prove that…
Cyclic codes are an important subclass of linear codes with wide applications in communication systems and data storage systems. In 2013, Ding and Helleseth presented nine open problems on optimal ternary cyclic codes $\mathcal{C}_{(1,e)}$.…
In this paper, we consider minimal linear codes in a general construction of linear codes from q-ary functions. First, we give the sufficient and necessary condition for codewords to be minimal. Second, as an application, we present four…
In this paper we study codes for correcting deletable errors in binary words, where each bit is either retained, substituted, erased or deleted and the total number of errors is much smaller compared to the length of the codeword. We…
