Explicit non-asymptotic upper bounds on the sizes of multiple-deletion correcting codes are presented. In particular, the largest single-deletion correcting code for $q$-ary alphabet and string length $n$ is shown to be of size at most…

In this paper, we study the famous Erd\H{o}s--S\'os forbidden intersection problem for words over an alphabet of size $m$: what is the maximal size of a subfamily $\mathcal{F}$ of $[m]^n$ that does not contain two vectors $x, y$ coinciding…

We study a finite-field analogue of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem under the Hamming metric. For a set \(S\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n\) let $\Delta(S)$ denote the set of Hamming distances determined by \(S\). We prove the lower bound…

Error-correcting codes resilient to synchronization errors such as insertions and deletions are known as insdel codes. Due to their important applications in DNA storage and computational biology, insdel codes have recently become a focal…

Let A(q,n,d) denote the maximum size of a q-ary code of length n and distance d. We study the minimum asymptotic redundancy \rho(q,n,d)=n-log_q A(q,n,d) as n grows while q and d are fixed. For any d and q<=d-1, long algebraic codes are…

Let $V$ denote an $r$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$, the finite field of $q^n$ elements. Then $V$ is also an $rn$-dimension vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. An $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspace $U$ of $V$ is $(h,k)_q$-evasive if…

In this paper, we derive a tight upper bound for the size of an intersecting $k$-Sperner family of subspaces of the $n$-dimensional vector space $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ over finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ which gives a $q$-analogue of the…

In the recent work \cite{shi18}, a combinatorial problem concerning linear codes over a finite field $\F_q$ was introduced. In that work the authors studied the weight set of an $[n,k]_q$ linear code, that is the set of non-zero distinct…

A $1$-avoiding set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that does not contain pairs of points at distance $1$. Let $m_1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ denote the maximum fraction of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that can be covered by a measurable $1$-avoiding set. We prove two…

We find the exact size of a maximal non-commuting set in unipotent uppertriangular linear group $UU_4(\mathbb{F}_q)$ in terms of a non-commuting geometric structure (Refer Definition [10]), where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is the finite field with $q$…

In a recent breakthrough, Chen, Hirahara and Ren prove that $\mathsf{S_2E}/_1 \not\subset \mathsf{SIZE}[2^n/n]$ by giving a single-valued $\mathsf{FS_2P}$ algorithm for the Range Avoidance Problem ($\mathsf{Avoid}$) that works for…

We address a problem posed by Nathan Kaplan in the 2014 Combinatorial and Additive Number Theory session: finding the largest subset $H \subseteq (\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z})^n$ with no distinct $x, y, z \in H$ such that $x + y + z \equiv 0…

Numerical evidence suggests that certain permutation patterns of length k are easier to avoid than any other patterns of that same length. We prove that these patterns are avoided by no more than (2.25k^2)^n permutations of length n. In…

For an integer $q\ge 2$, a perfect $q$-hash code $C$ is a block code over $[q]:=\{1,\ldots,q\}$ of length $n$ in which every subset $\{\mathbf{c}_1,\mathbf{c}_2,\dots,\mathbf{c}_q\}$ of $q$ elements is separated, i.e., there exists…

For every fixed finite field $\F_q$, $p \in (0,1-1/q)$ and $\epsilon > 0$, we prove that with high probability a random subspace $C$ of $\F_q^n$ of dimension $(1-H_q(p)-\epsilon)n$ has the property that every Hamming ball of radius $pn$ has…

We study the diametric problem (i.e., optimal anticodes) in the space of permutations under the Ulam distance. That is, let $S_n$ denote the set of permutations on $n$ symbols, and for each $\sigma, \tau \in S_n$, define their Ulam distance…

A subset $A \subset \mathbb R^2$ is said to avoid distance $1$ if: $\forall x,y \in A, \left\| x-y \right\|_2 \neq 1.$ In this paper we study the number $m_1(\mathbb R^2)$ which is the supremum of the upper densities of measurable sets…

The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, we characterize the existence of binary self-orthogonal codes meeting the Griesmer bound by employing Solomon-Stiffler codes and some related residual codes. Second, using such a…

For any positive integer $q\geq 2$ and any real number $\delta\in(0,1)$, let $\alpha_q(n,\delta n)$ denote the maximum size of a subset of $\mathbb{Z}_q^n$ with minimum Hamming distance at least $\delta n$, where…

Addressing questions raised in recent papers, we study the $r$-distance graph $H_r(n)$ on the Boolean cube $\{0,1\}^n$, where two vertices are adjacent if their Hamming distance is exactly $r$. For fixed integers $s \ge 2$ and even $r \ge…
