Linear codes with few weights have become an interesting research topic and important applications of cryptography and coding theory. In this paper, we apply some ternary near-bent and 2-plateaued functions or r -ary functions to construct more 3-weight linear codes, where r is a prime. Moreover, we determine the weight distributions of the resulted linear codes by means of some exponential sums.

Due to their important applications to coding theory, cryptography, communications and statistics, combinatorial [Formula: see text]-designs have attracted lots of research interest for decades. The interplay between coding theory and [Formula: see text]-designs started many years ago. It is generally known that [Formula: see text]-designs can be used to derive linear codes over any finite field, and that the supports of all codewords with a fixed weight in a code also may hold a [Formula: see text]-design. In this paper, we first construct a class of linear codes from cyclic codes related to Dembowski-Ostrom functions. By using exponential sums, we then determine the weight distribution of the linear codes. Finally, we obtain infinite families of [Formula: see text]-designs from the supports of all codewords with a fixed weight in these codes. Furthermore, the parameters of [Formula: see text]-designs are calculated explicitly.

AbstractThe packing problem for (k, 3)-caps is that of finding (m, 3)r, q, the largest size of (k, 3)-cap in the Galois space Sr, q. The problem is tackled by exploiting the interplay of finite geometries with error-correcting codes. An improved general upper bound on (m, 3)3 q and the actual value of (m, 3)3, 4 are obtained. In terms of coding theory, the methods make a useful contribution to the difficult task of establishing the existence or non-existence of linear codes with certain weight distributions.

Ahlswede, Aydinian, and Khachatrian posed the following problem: what is the maximum number of Hamming weight $w$ vectors in a $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_2^n$? The answer to this question could be relevant to coding theory, since it sheds light on the weight distributions of binary linear codes. We give some partial results. We also provide a conjecture for the complete solution when $w$ is odd as well as for the case $k \geq 2w$ and $w$ even. One tool used to study this problem is a linear map that decreases the weight of nonzero vectors by a constant. We characterize such maps.

Abstract Coding theory has started with the intention of detection and correction of errors which have occurred during communication. Different types of errors are produced by different types of communication channels and accordingly codes are developed to deal with them. In 2013 Sharma and Gaur introduced a new kind of an error which will be termed “key error”. This paper obtains the lower and upper bounds on the number of parity-check digits required for linear codes capable for detecting such errors. Illustration of such a code is provided. Codes capable of simultaneous detection and correction of such errors have also been considered.

The paper gives a matrix-free presentation of the correspondence between full-length linear codes and projective multisets. It generalizes the Brouwer-Van Eupen construction that transforms projective codes into two-weight codes. Short proofs of known theorems are obtained. A new notion of self-duality in coding theory is explored.
