Symbol-pair codes were proposed for the application in high density storage systems, where it is not possible to read individual symbols. Yaakobi, Bruck and Siegel proved that the minimum pair-distance of binary linear cyclic codes…

We investigate the densities of the sets of abundant numbers and of covering numbers, integers $n$ for which there exists a distinct covering system where every modulus divides $n$. We establish that the set $\mathcal{C}$ of covering…

We obtain a classification of the completely regular codes with covering radius 1 and the second eigenvalue in the Hamming graphs H(3,q) up to q and intersection array. Due to works of Meyerowitz, Mogilnykh and Valyuzenich, our result…

An $(n,R)$-covering sequence is a cyclic sequence whose consecutive $n$-tuples form a code of length $n$ and covering radius $R$. Using several construction methods improvements of the upper bounds on the length of such sequences for $n…

The covering radius problem is a question in coding theory concerned with finding the minimum radius $r$ such that, given a code that is a subset of an underlying metric space, balls of radius $r$ over its code words cover the entire metric…

Given a parity-check matrix $H_m$ of a $q$-ary Hamming code, we consider a partition of the columns into two subsets. Then, we consider the two codes that have these submatrices as parity-check matrices. We say that anyone of these two…

We solve several first questions in the table of small parameters of completely regular (CR) codes in Hamming graphs $H(n,q)$. The most uplifting result is the existence of a $\{13,6,1;1,6,9\}$-CR code in $H(n,2)$, $n\ge 13$. We also…

We study covering problems in Hamming and Grassmann spaces through a unified coding-theoretic and information-theoretic framework. Viewing covering as a form of quantization in general metric spaces, we introduce the notion of the average…

Nearly perfect packing codes are those codes that meet the Johnson upper bound on the size of error-correcting codes. This bound is an improvement to the sphere-packing bound. A related bound for covering codes is known as the van Wee…

Based on the theoretical neuroscience, G. Cotardo and A. Ravagnavi in \cite{CR} introduced a kind of asymmetric binary codes called combinatorial neural codes (CN codes for short), with a "matched metric" $\delta_{r}$ called asymmetric…

Given two identical linear codes $\mathcal C$ over $\mathbb F_q$ of length $n$, we independently pick one codeword from each codebook uniformly at random. A $\textit{sumset}$ is formed by adding these two codewords entry-wise as integer…

In this paper we consider completely regular codes, obtained from perfect (Hamming) codes by lifting the ground field. More exactly, for a given perfect code C of length n=(q^m-1)/(q-1) over F_q with a parity check matrix H_m, we define a…

In Cayley graphs on the additive group of a small vector space over GF$(q)$, $q=2,3$, we look for completely regular (CR) codes whose parameters are new in Hamming graphs over the same field. The existence of a CR code in such Cayley graph…

A dominating set on an $n $-dimensional hypercube is equivalent to a binary covering code of length $n $ and covering radius 1. It is still an open problem to determine the domination number $\gamma(Q_n)$ for $ n\geq10$ and $…

We recover the first linear programming bound of McEliece, Rodemich, Rumsey, and Welch for binary error-correcting codes and designs via a covering argument. It is possible to show, interpreting the following notions appropriately, that if…

We consider the problem of describing the typical (possibly) non-linear code of minimum distance bounded from below over a large alphabet. We concentrate on block codes with the Hamming metric and on subspace codes with the injection…

Recall that a binary linear code of length $n$ is a linear subspace $\mathcal{C} = \{x\in\mathbb{F}_2^n\mid Ax=0\}$. Here the parity check matrix $A$ is a binary $m\times n$ matrix of rank $m$. We say that $\mathcal{C}$ has rate $R=1-\frac…

We identify a family of binary codes whose structure is similar to Reed-Muller (RM) codes and which include RM codes as a strict subclass. The codes in this family are denoted as $C_n(r,m)$, and their duals are denoted as $B_n(r,m)$. The…

The list-decodable code has been an active topic in theoretical computer science.There are general results about the list-decodability to the Johnson radius and the list-decoding capacity theorem. In this paper we show that rates,…

The sum-rank metric can be seen as a generalization of both, the rank and the Hamming metric. It is well known that sum-rank metric codes outperform rank metric codes in terms of the required field size to construct maximum distance…
