Varieties of Nodal surfaces, coding theory and Discriminants of cubic hypersurfaces. Part 1: Generalities and nodal K3 surfaces. Part 2: Cubic Hypersurfaces, associated discriminants. Part 3: Nodal quintics. Part 4: Nodal sextics

Fabrizio Catanese, in collaboration with Yonghwa Cho, Stephen Coughlan +4

We attach two binary codes to a projective nodal surface (the strict code K and, for even degree d, the extended code K' ) to investigate the `Nodal Severi varieties F(d, n) of nod…
