We introduce the notion of sum-matroids and show its association with sum-rank metric codes. As a consequence, some results for sum-rank metric codes by Mart\'inez-Pe\~nas are generalized for sum-matroids. The sum-matroids generalize the…
This paper contributes to the study of rank-metric codes from an algebraic and combinatorial point of view. We introduce $q$-polymatroids, the $q$-analogue of polymatroids, and develop their basic properties. We associate a pair of…
We consider linear codes over some fixed finite field extension over an arbitrary finite field. Gabidulin introduced rank metric codes, by endowing linear codes over the extension field with a rank weight over the base field and studied…
The aim of this paper is to develop a $(q,m)$-polymatroidal approach to higher supports and higher rank-weight enumerators of rank-metric codes. In this framework, we establish analogs of several fundamental results known for matroids and…
This paper investigates the generalized rank weights, with a definition implied by the study of the generalized rank weight enumerator. We study rank metric codes over $L$, where $L$ is a finite Galois extension of a field $K$. This is a…
It is well known that linear rank-metric codes give rise to q-polymatroids. Analogously to matroid theory one may ask whether a given q-polymatroid is representable by a rank-metric code. We provide an answer by presenting an example of a…
We consider $q$-matroids and their associated classical matroids derived from Gabidulin rank-metric codes. We express the generalized rank weights of a Gabidulin rank-metric code in terms of Betti numbers of the dual classical matroid…
In this paper we study generalized weights as an algebraic invariant of a code. We first describe anticodes in the Hamming and in the rank metric, proving in particular that optimal anticodes in the rank metric coincide with…
Following Britz, Johnsen, Mayhew and Shiromoto, we consider demi\-ma\-troids as a(nother) natural generalization of matroids. As they have shown, demi\-ma\-troids are the appropriate combinatorial objects for studying Wei's duality. Our…
The Assmus-Mattson theorem gives a way to identify block designs arising from codes. This result was broadened to matroids and weighted designs. In this work we present a further two-fold generalisation: first from matroids to polymatroids…
We propose a unified theory of generalized weights for linear codes endowed with an arbitrary distance. Instead of relying on supports or anticodes, the weights of a code are defined via the intersections of the code with a chosen family of…
In this work we develop a geometric approach to the study of rank metric codes. Using this method, we introduce a simpler definition for generalized rank weight of linear codes. We give a complete classification of constant rank weight code…
We develop an algebraic theory of supports for $R$-linear codes of fixed length, where $R$ is a finite commutative unitary ring. A support naturally induces a notion of generalized weights and allows one to associate a monomial ideal to a…
Generalizing polynomials previously studied in the context of linear codes, we define weight polynomials and an enumerator for a matroid $M$. Our main result is that these polynomials are determined by Betti numbers associated with graded…
In 1991, Wei introduced generalized minimum Hamming weights for linear codes and showed their monotonicity and duality. Recently, several authors extended these results to the case of generalized minimum poset weights by using different…
In this article, we study polymatroids that are representable by means of linear restricted rank-metric codes, namely, by subspaces of the space of alternating, symmetric, or Hermitian square matrices endowed with the rank metric. More…
In $1991$, Wei proved a duality theorem that established an interesting connection between the generalized Hamming weights of a linear code and those of its dual code. Wei's duality theorem has since been extensively studied from different…
We introduce a notion of duality (due to Brylawski) that generalizes matroid duality to arbitrary rank functions. This generalized duality allows for generalized operations (deletion and contraction) and a generalized polynomial based on…
To each linear code over a finite field we associate the matroid of its parity check matrix. We show to what extent one can determine the generalized Hamming weights of the code (or defined for a matroid in general) from various sets of…
We define generalized Hamming weights for almost affine codes. We show how various aspects and applications of generalized Hamming weights for linear codes, such as Wei duality, generalized Kung's bound, profiles, connection to wire-tap…
