The Asymptotic Number of Anticodes in Hamming Spaces

Anna-Lena Horlemann, Ananthakrishnan Ravi

In the Hamming space , a -anticode is a subset in which every pair of points has Hamming distance at most , or equivalently, a set of diameter at most . Le…

The Power of Power Codes: New Classes of Easy Instances for the Linear Equivalence Problem

Michele Battagliola, Anna-Lena Horlemann, Abhinaba Mazumder +4

Given two linear codes, the Linear Equivalence Problem (LEP) asks to find (if it exists) a linear isometry between them; as a special case, we have the Permutation Equivalence Prob…
