The Perfect Binary One-Error-Correcting Codes of Length 15: Part II--Properties
A complete classification of the perfect binary one-error-correcting codes of
length 15 as well as their extensions of length 16 was recently carried out in
[P. R. J. \"Osterg{\aa}rd and O. Pottonen, "The perfect binary
one-error-correcting codes of length 15: Part I--Classification," IEEE Trans.
Inform. Theory vol. 55, pp. 4657--4660, 2009]. In the current accompanying
work, the classified codes are studied in great detail, and their main
properties are tabulated. The results include the fact that 33 of the 80
Steiner triple systems of order 15 occur in such codes. Further understanding
is gained on full-rank codes via switching, as it turns out that all but two
full-rank codes can be obtained through a series of such transformations from
the Hamming code. Other topics studied include (non)systematic codes, embedded
one-error-correcting codes, and defining sets of codes. A classification of
certain mixed perfect codes is also obtained.Comment: v2: fixed two errors (extension of nonsystematic codes, table of

Resolving sets for Johnson and Kneser graphs
A set of vertices in a graph is a {\em resolving set} for if, for
any two vertices , there exists such that the distances . In this paper, we consider the Johnson graphs and Kneser
graphs , and obtain various constructions of resolving sets for these
graphs. As well as general constructions, we show that various interesting
combinatorial objects can be used to obtain resolving sets in these graphs,
including (for Johnson graphs) projective planes and symmetric designs, as well
as (for Kneser graphs) partial geometries, Hadamard matrices, Steiner systems
and toroidal grids.Comment: 23 pages, 2 figures, 1 tabl
