On Hull-Variation Problem of Equivalent Linear Codes
The intersection () of a linear code and its Euclidean dual (Hermitian dual ) is called the Euclidean
(Hermitian) hull of this code. The construction of an entanglement-assisted
quantum code from a linear code over or depends
essentially on the Euclidean hull or the Hermitian hull of this code. Therefore
it is natural to consider the hull-variation problem when a linear code is transformed to an equivalent code . In this paper
we introduce the maximal hull dimension as an invariant of a linear code with
respect to the equivalent transformations. Then some basic properties of the
maximal hull dimension are studied. A general method to construct
hull-decreasing or hull-increasing equivalent linear codes is proposed. We
prove that for a nonnegative integer satisfying , a
linear self-dual code is equivalent to a linear -dimension hull
code. On the opposite direction we prove that a linear LCD code over satisfying and is equivalent to a linear
one-dimension hull code under a weak condition. Several new families of
negacyclic LCD codes and BCH LCD codes over are also constructed.
Our method can be applied to the generalized Reed-Solomon codes and the
generalized twisted Reed-Solomon codes to construct arbitrary dimension hull
MDS codes. Some new EAQEC codes including MDS and almost MDS
entanglement-assisted quantum codes are constructed. Many EAQEC codes over
small fields are constructed from optimal Hermitian self-dual codes.Comment: 33 pages, minor error correcte
