Perfect single error-correcting codes in the Johnson Scheme

Abstract

Delsarte conjectured in 1973 that there are no nontrivial pefect codes in the Johnson scheme. Etzion and Schwartz recently showed that perfect codes must be k-regular for large k, and used this to show that there are no perfect codes correcting single errors in J(n,w) for n <= 50000. In this paper we show that there are no perfect single error-correcting codes for n <= 2^250.Comment: 4 pages, revised, accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Information Theor
