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
Optimal Ferrers Diagram Rank-Metric Codes
Optimal rank-metric codes in Ferrers diagrams are considered. Such codes
consist of matrices having zeros at certain fixed positions and can be used to
construct good codes in the projective space. Four techniques and constructions
of Ferrers diagram rank-metric codes are presented, each providing optimal
codes for different diagrams and parameters.Comment: to be presented in Algebra, Codes, and Networks, Bordeaux, June 16 -

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
