The Last Seven Open Radii for Perfect Codes in the Johnson Scheme
Xiande Zhang, Wenjie Zhong
Delsarte (1973) conjectured that there are no nontrivial perfect codes in the Johnson scheme. In this paper, we prove that there are no nontrivial -perfect codes in the Johnson…
There Are No Nontrivial Perfect Codes in the Johnson Scheme
Tuvi Etzion, Xiande Zhang, Wenjie Zhong
In his seminal work from 1973, Delsarte conjectured that the Johnson schemes admit no nontrivial perfect codes. We prove this fundamental conjecture which is central in combinatori…
On supersaturation for oddtown and eventown
Xin Wei, Yuhao Zhao, Xiande Zhang +1
We study the supersaturation problems of oddtown and eventown. Given a family of subsets of an element set, let denote the number of distinct pair…
Optimal Ternary Codes with Weight and Distance in -Metric
Xin Wei, Tingting Chen, Xiande Zhang
The study of constant-weight codes in -metric was motivated by the duplication-correcting problem for data storage in live DNA. It is interesting to determine the maximum s…
Bollobás type theorems for hemi-bundled two families
Wenjun Yu, Xiangliang Kong, Yuanxiao Xi +2
Let be a collection of pairs of sets with and for . Suppose that if and only if , then by…
Complexity of Dependencies in Bounded Domains, Armstrong Codes, and Generalizations
Yeow Meng Chee, Hui Zhang, Xiande Zhang
The study of Armstrong codes is motivated by the problem of understanding complexities of dependencies in relational database systems, where attributes have bounded domains. A $(q,…
Covering Radius of Permutation Groups with Infinity-Norm
Xin Wei, Xiande Zhang
The covering radius of permutation group codes are studied in this paper with -metric. We determine the covering radius of the -type group, which is a direct pro…
Suitable sets of permutations, packings of triples, and Ramsey's theorem
Xiande Zhang
A set of permutations of is -suitable, if each symbol precedes each subset of others in at least one permutation. The extremal problem of determinin…
Linear Size Constant-Composition Codes Meeting the Johnson Bound
Yeow Meng Chee, Xiande Zhang
The Johnson-type upper bound on the maximum size of a code of length , distance and constant composition is , where i…
Decompositions of Edge-Colored Digraphs: A New Technique in the Construction of Constant-Weight Codes and Related Families
Yeow Meng Chee, Fei Gao, Han Mao Kiah +3
We demonstrate that certain Johnson-type bounds are asymptotically exact for a variety of classes of codes, namely, constant-composition codes, nonbinary constant-weight codes and…
On the Existence of Retransmission Permutation Arrays
Ian M. Wanless, Xiande Zhang
We investigate retransmission permutation arrays (RPAs) that are motivated by applications in overlapping channel transmissions. An RPA is an array in which each row is…
Improved Constructions of Frameproof Codes
Yeow Meng Chee, Xiande Zhang
Frameproof codes are used to preserve the security in the context of coalition when fingerprinting digital data. Let be the largest cardinality of a -ary -framep…
Universal Cycles for Minimum Coverings of Pairs by Triples, with Application to 2-Radius Sequences
Yeow Meng Chee, San Ling, Yin Tan +1
A new ordering, extending the notion of universal cycles of Chung {\em et al.} (1992), is proposed for the blocks of -uniform set systems. Existence of minimum coverings of pair…
