Lifted codes and the multilevel construction for constant dimension codes
Constant dimension codes are e.g. used for error correction and detection in
random linear network coding, so that constructions for these codes have
achieved wide attention. Here, we improve over 150 lower bounds by describing
better constructions for subspace distance 4.Comment: 40 pages, 8 table
New Lower Bounds for Constant Dimension Codes
This paper provides new constructive lower bounds for constant dimension
codes, using different techniques such as Ferrers diagram rank metric codes and
pending blocks. Constructions for two families of parameters of constant
dimension codes are presented. The examples of codes obtained by these
constructions are the largest known constant dimension codes for the given
parameters
Problems on q-Analogs in Coding Theory
The interest in -analogs of codes and designs has been increased in the
last few years as a consequence of their new application in error-correction
for random network coding. There are many interesting theoretical, algebraic,
and combinatorial coding problems concerning these q-analogs which remained
unsolved. The first goal of this paper is to make a short summary of the large
amount of research which was done in the area mainly in the last few years and
to provide most of the relevant references. The second goal of this paper is to
present one hundred open questions and problems for future research, whose
solution will advance the knowledge in this area. The third goal of this paper
is to present and start some directions in solving some of these problems.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:0805.3528 by other author
Tables of subspace codes
One of the main problems of subspace coding asks for the maximum possible
cardinality of a subspace code with minimum distance at least over
, where the dimensions of the codewords, which are vector
spaces, are contained in . In the special case of
one speaks of constant dimension codes. Since this (still) emerging
field is very prosperous on the one hand side and there are a lot of
connections to classical objects from Galois geometry it is a bit difficult to
keep or to obtain an overview about the current state of knowledge. To this end
we have implemented an on-line database of the (at least to us) known results
at \url{subspacecodes.uni-bayreuth.de}. The aim of this recurrently updated
technical report is to provide a user guide how this technical tool can be used
in research projects and to describe the so far implemented theoretic and
algorithmic knowledge.Comment: 44 pages, 6 tables, 7 screenshot
