Weight hierarchies of a family of linear codes associated with degenerate quadratic forms
We restrict a degenerate quadratic form over a finite field of odd
characteristic to subspaces. Thus, a quotient space related to is
introduced. Then we get a non-degenerate quadratic form induced by over the
quotient space. Some related results on the subspaces and quotient space are
obtained. Based on this, we solve the weight hierarchies of a family of linear
codes related to Comment: 12 page
On the complete weight enumerators of some linear codes with a few weights
Linear codes with a few weights have important applications in authentication
codes, secret sharing, consumer electronics, etc.. The determination of the
parameters such as Hamming weight distributions and complete weight enumerators
of linear codes are important research topics. In this paper, we consider some
classes of linear codes with a few weights and determine the complete weight
enumerators from which the corresponding Hamming weight distributions are
derived with help of some sums involving Legendre symbol
Relative generalized Hamming weights of one-point algebraic geometric codes
Security of linear ramp secret sharing schemes can be characterized by the
relative generalized Hamming weights of the involved codes. In this paper we
elaborate on the implication of these parameters and we devise a method to
estimate their value for general one-point algebraic geometric codes. As it is
demonstrated, for Hermitian codes our bound is often tight. Furthermore, for
these codes the relative generalized Hamming weights are often much larger than
the corresponding generalized Hamming weights
