New Bounds for Permutation Codes in Ulam Metric

Information Theory 2015-04-21 v1 Combinatorics math.IT

Abstract

New bounds on the cardinality of permutation codes equipped with the Ulam distance are presented. First, an integer-programming upper bound is derived, which improves on the Singleton-type upper bound in the literature for some lengths. Second, several probabilistic lower bounds are developed, which improve on the known lower bounds for large minimum distances. The results of a computer search for permutation codes are also presented.
