چکیده

In this paper we study the algebraic geometry of any two-point code on the Hermitian curve and reveal the purely geometric nature of their dual minimum distance. We describe the minimum-weight codewords of many of their dual codes through an explicit geometric characterization of their supports. In particular, we show that they appear as sets of collinear points in many cases.

One-point Goppa Codes on Some Genus 3 Curves with Applications in Quantum Error-Correcting Codes

We investigate one-point algebraic geometric codes CL(D, G) associated to maximal curves recently characterized by Tafazolian and Torres given by the affine equation yl = f(x), where f(x) is a separable polynomial of degree r relatively prime to l. We mainly focus on the curve y4 = x3 +x and Picard curves given by the equations y3 = x4-x and y3 = x4 -1. As a result, we obtain exact value of min...

Complementary Dual Subfield Linear Codes Over Finite Fields

Two families of complementary codes over finite fields q are studied, where 2 = q r is square: i) Hermitian complementary dual linear codes, and ii) trace Hermitian complementary dual subfield linear codes. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a linear code (resp., a subfield linear code) to be Hermitian complementary dual (resp., trace Hermitian complementary dual) are determined. Construct...

On the geometry of small weight codewords of dual algebraic geometric codes

We investigate the geometry of the support of small weight codewords of dual algebraic geometric codes on smooth complete intersections by applying the powerful tools recently developed by Alain Couvreur. In particular, by restricting ourselves to the case of Hermitian codes, we recover and extend previous results obtained by the second named author joint with Marco Pellegrini and Massimiliano ...

New MDS or near MDS self-dual codes over finite fields

The study of MDS self-dual codes has attracted lots of attention in recent years. There are many papers on determining existence of q−ary MDS self-dual codes for various lengths. There are not existence of q−ary MDS self-dual codes of some lengths, even these lengths < q. We generalize MDS Euclidean self-dual codes to near MDS Euclidean self-dual codes and near MDS isodual codes. And we obtain ...

Constacyclic and quasi-twisted Hermitian self-dual codes over finite fields

Constacyclic and quasi-twisted Hermitian self-dual codes over finite fields are studied. An algorithm for factorizing xn − λ over Fq2 is given, where λ is a unit in Fq2 . Based on this factorization, the dimensions of the Hermitian hulls of λ-constacyclic codes of length n over Fq2 are determined. The characterization and enumeration of constacyclic Hermitian self-dual (resp., complementary dua...
