On the small weight codewords of the functional codes C_2(Q), Q a non-singular quadric
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the small weight codewords of the functional code C2(Q), with Q a nonsingular quadric of PG(N, q). We prove that the small weight codewords correspond to the intersections of Q with the singular quadrics of PG(N, q) consisting of two hyperplanes. We also calculate the number of codewords having these small weights.

The small weight codewords of the functional codes associated to non-singular Hermitian varieties
This article studies the small weight codewords of the functional code CHerm(X), with X a non-singular Hermitian variety of PG(N, q2). The main result of this article is that the small weight codewords correspond to the intersections of X with the singular Hermitian varieties of PG(N, q2) consisting of q + 1 hyperplanes through a common (N −2)-dimensional space Π, forming a Baer subline in the ...
متن کاملSmall weight codewords in LDPC codes defined by (dual) classical generalized quadrangles
We find lower bounds on the minimum distance and characterize codewords of small weight in low-density parity check codes defined by (dual) classical generalized quadrangles. We analyze the geometry of the non-singular parabolic quadric in PG(4, q) to find information about the low-density parity check codes defined by Q(4, q), W(q) and H(3, q). ForW(q) and H(3, q), we are able to describe smal...
متن کامل2 00 6 Codes defined by forms of degree 2 on quadric and non - degenerate hermitian varieties in P 4
We study the functional codes of second order defined by G. Lachaud on X ⊂ P(Fq) a quadric of rank(X )=3,4,5 or a non-degenerate hermitian variety. We give some bounds for the number of points of quadratic sections of X , which are the best possible and show that codes defined on non-degenerate quadrics are better than those defined on degenerate quadrics. We also show the geometric structure o...
متن کاملSmall weight codewords in the codes arising from Desarguesian projective planes
We study codewords of small weight in the codes arising from Desarguesian projective planes. We first of all improve the results of K. Chouinard on codewords of small weight in the codes arising from PG(2, p), p prime. Chouinard characterized all the codewords up to weight 2p in these codes. Using a particular basis for this code, described by Moorhouse, we characterize all the codewords of wei...
متن کاملNew informations on the structure of the functional codes defined by forms of degree h on non - degenerate Hermitian varieties in P n ( F q )
We study the functional codes of order h defined by G. Lachaud on X ⊂ P(Fq) a nondegenerate Hermitian variety. We give a condition of divisibility of the weights of the codewords. For X a non-degenerate Hermitian surface, we list the first five weights and the corresponding codewords and give a positive answer on a conjecture formulated on this question. The paper ends with a conjecture on the ...
