On $(2n/3-1)$-resilient $(n,2)$-functions

A $\{00,01,10,11\}$-valued function on the vertices of the $n$-cube is called a $t$-resilient $(n,2)$-function if it has the same number of $00$s, $01$s, $10$s and $11$s among the vertices of every subcube of dimension $t$. The Friedman and Fon-Der-Flaass bounds on the correlation immunity order say that such a function must satisfy $t\le 2n/3-1$; moreover, the $(2n/3-1)$-resilient $(n,2)$-functions correspond to the equitable partitions of the $n$-cube with the quotient matrix $[[0,r,r,r],[r,0,r,r],[r,r,0,r],[r,r,r,0]]$, $r=n/3$. We suggest constructions of such functions and corresponding partitions, show connections with Latin hypercubes and binary $1$-perfect codes, characterize the non-full-rank and the reducible functions from the considered class, and discuss the possibility to make a complete characterization of the class.

On $Z_pZ_{p^k}$-additive codes and their duality

In this paper, two different Gray-like maps from $Z_p^α\times Z_{p^k}^β$, where $p$ is prime, to $Z_p^n$, $n={α+βp^{k-1}}$, denoted by $ϕ$ and $Φ$, respectively, are presented. We have determined the connection between the weight enumerators among the image codes under these two mappings. We show that if $C$ is a $Z_p Z_{p^k}$-additive code, and $C^\bot$ is its dual, then the weight enumerators of the image $p$-ary codes $ϕ(C)$ and $Φ(C^\bot)$ are formally dual. This is a partial generalization of [On $Z_{2^k}$-dual binary codes, arXiv:math/0509325], and the result is generalized to odd characteristic $p$ and mixed alphabet. Additionally, a construction of $1$-perfect additive codes in the mixed $Z_p Z_{p^2} ... Z_{p^k}$ alphabet is given.

On completely regular codes of covering radius 1 in the halved hypercubes

We consider constructions of covering-radius-1 completely regular codes, or, equivalently, equitable 2-partitions (regular 2-partitions, perfect 2-colorings), of halved n-cubes. Keywords: completely regular code, equitable partition, regular partition, partition design, perfect coloring, halved hypercube.

On the cardinality spectrum and the number of latin bitrades of order 3

By a (latin) unitrade, we call a set of vertices of the Hamming graph that is intersects with every maximal clique in $0$ or $2$ vertices. A bitrade is a bipartite unitrade, that is, a unitrade splittable into two independent sets. We study the cardinality spectrum of the bitrades in the Hamming graph $H(n,k)$ with $k=3$ (ternary hypercube) and the growth of the number of such bitrades as $n$ grows. In particular, we determine all possible (up to $2.5\cdot 2^n$) and large (from $14\cdot 3^{n-3}$) cardinatities of bitrades and prove that the cardinality of a bitrade is compartible to $0$ or $2^n$ modulo $3$ (this result has a treatment in terms of a ternary code of Reed--Muller type). A part of the results is valid for any $k$. We prove that the number of nonequivalent bitrades is not less than $2^{(2/3-o(1))n}$ and is not greater than $2^{α^n}$, $α<2$, as $n\to\infty$.

Additive perfect codes in Doob graphs

The Doob graph $D(m,n)$ is the Cartesian product of $m>0$ copies of the Shrikhande graph and $n$ copies of the complete graph of order $4$. Naturally, $D(m,n)$ can be represented as a Cayley graph on the additive group $(Z_4^2)^m \times (Z_2^2)^{n'} \times Z_4^{n''}$, where $n'+n''=n$. A set of vertices of $D(m,n)$ is called an additive code if it forms a subgroup of this group. We construct a $3$-parameter class of additive perfect codes in Doob graphs and show that the known necessary conditions of the existence of additive $1$-perfect codes in $D(m,n'+n'')$ are sufficient. Additionally, two quasi-cyclic additive $1$-perfect codes are constructed in $D(155,0+31)$ and $D(2667,0+127)$.

On the gaps of the spectrum of volumes of trades

A pair $\{T_0,T_1\}$ of disjoint collections of $k$-subsets (blocks) of a set $V$ of cardinality $v$ is called a $t$-$(v,k)$ trade or simply a $t$-trade if every $t$-subset of $V$ is included in the same number of blocks of $T_0$ and $T_1$. The cardinality of $T_0$ is called the volume of the trade. Using the weight distribution of the Reed--Muller code, we prove the conjecture that for every $i$ from $2$ to $t$, there are no $t$-trades of volume greater than $2^{t+1}-2^i$ and less than $2^{t+1}-2^{i-1}$ and derive restrictions on the $t$-trade volumes that are less than $2^{t+1}+2^{t-1}$.

Completely regular codes in the infinite hexagonal grid

A set $C$ of vertices of a simple graph is called a completely regular code if for each $i=0$, $1$, $2$, \ldots and $j = i-1$, $i$, $i+1$, all vertices at distance $i$ from $C$ have the same number $s_{ij}$ of neighbors at distance $j$ from $C$. We characterize the completely regular codes in the infinite hexagonal grid graph.

Embedding in $q$-ary $1$-perfect codes and partitions

We prove that every $1$-error-correcting code over a finite field can be embedded in a $1$-perfect code of some larger length. Embedding in this context means that the original code is a subcode of the resulting $1$-perfect code and can be obtained from it by repeated shortening. Further, we generalize the results to partitions: every partition of the Hamming space into $1$-error-correcting codes can be embedded in a partition of a space of some larger dimension into $1$-perfect codes. For the partitions, the embedding length is close to the theoretical bound for the general case and optimal for the binary case. Keywords: error-correcting code, $1$-perfect code, $1$-perfect partition, embedding

On the Classification of MDS Codes

A $q$-ary code of length $n$, size $M$, and minimum distance $d$ is called an $(n,M,d)_q$ code. An $(n,q^{k},n-k+1)_q$ code is called a maximum distance separable (MDS) code. In this work, some MDS codes over small alphabets are classified. It is shown that every $(k+d-1,q^k,d)_q$ code with $k\geq 3$, $d \geq 3$, $q \in \{5,7\}$ is equivalent to a linear code with the same parameters. This implies that the $(6,5^4,3)_5$ code and the $(n,7^{n-2},3)_7$ MDS codes for $n\in\{6,7,8\}$ are unique. The classification of one-error-correcting $8$-ary MDS codes is also finished; there are $14$, $8$, $4$, and $4$ equivalence classes of $(n,8^{n-2},3)_8$ codes for $n=6,7,8,9$, respectively. One of the equivalence classes of perfect $(9,8^7,3)_8$ codes corresponds to the Hamming code and the other three are nonlinear codes for which there exists no previously known construction.

Non-existence of a ternary constant weight $(16, 5, 15; 2048)$ diameter perfect code

Ternary constant weight codes of length $n=2^m$, weight $n-1$, cardinality $2^n$ and distance $5$ are known to exist for every $m$ for which there exists an APN permutation of order $2^m$, that is, at least for all odd $m \geq 3$ and for $m=6$. We show the non-existence of such codes for $m=4$ and prove that any codes with the parameters above are diameter perfect.

On Optimal Binary One-Error-Correcting Codes of Lengths $2^m-4$ and $2^m-3$

Best and Brouwer [Discrete Math. 17 (1977), 235-245] proved that triply-shortened and doubly-shortened binary Hamming codes (which have length $2^m-4$ and $2^m-3$, respectively) are optimal. Properties of such codes are here studied, determining among other things parameters of certain subcodes. A utilization of these properties makes a computer-aided classification of the optimal binary one-error-correcting codes of lengths 12 and 13 possible; there are 237610 and 117823 such codes, respectively (with 27375 and 17513 inequivalent extensions). This completes the classification of optimal binary one-error-correcting codes for all lengths up to 15. Some properties of the classified codes are further investigated. Finally, it is proved that for any $m \geq 4$, there are optimal binary one-error-correcting codes of length $2^m-4$ and $2^m-3$ that cannot be lengthened to perfect codes of length $2^m-1$.

Poly-Bernoulli numbers and lonesum matrices

A lonesum matrix is a matrix that can be uniquely reconstructed from its row and column sums. Kaneko defined the poly-Bernoulli numbers $B_m^{(n)}$ by a generating function, and Brewbaker computed the number of binary lonesum $m\times n$-matrices and showed that this number coincides with the poly-Bernoulli number $B_m^{(-n)}$. We compute the number of $q$-ary lonesum $m\times n$-matrices, and then provide generalized Kaneko's formulas by using the generating function for the number of $q$-ary lonesum $m\times n$-matrices. In addition, we define two types of $q$-ary lonesum matrices that are composed of strong and weak lonesum matrices, and suggest further researches on lonesum matrices. \
