Abstract

In recent years, simplicial complexes have gained considerable attention as a useful tool for constructing distance-optimal codes over finite fields. In this article, we construct four infinite families of linear codes over the ring $\mathcal{R}=\mathbb{F}_{q}+u\mathbb{F}_{q}$ with $u^2=0$ using simplicial complexes with one or two maximal elements, and completely determine their Lee weight distributions via exponential-sum techniques. By employing a Gray map on $\mathcal{R}$, we obtain infinite families of distance-optimal codes over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, including a near-Griesmer family, and establish sufficient conditions for their minimality. Furthermore, we investigate the corresponding subfield codes and derive sufficient conditions for their distance-optimality and minimality, yielding infinite families of Griesmer and near-Griesmer codes.

Double circulant LCD codes over $\mathbb{F}_2+u\mathbb{F}_2$ and constructions for binary LCD codes

Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes are linear codes that intersect their dual trivially. We study double circulant (Euclidean) LCD codes over the finite chain ring $R=\mathbb F_2+u\mathbb F_2$, where $u^2=0$. Using the Chinese Remainder Theorem and the factorization of $x^n-1$, we derive an explicit enumeration form...

Fuglede's conjecture holds in $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{d}$ for $p=2,\,d=8$ and $p=11,\,d=3$

Fuglede's conjecture in $\mathbb{F}_p^d$ says that a nonempty set tiles by translation if and only if it is spectral. We prove the conjecture in $\mathbb{F}_2^8$ and $\mathbb{F}_{11}^3$. Over $\mathbb{F}_2$ we show more generally that the Fourier support of a nonconstant indicator of density different from one half con...

Graph-Based Linear Codes Associated with the Finite Ring $\mathbb{F}_p[x]/\langle x^4 \rangle$

We investigate the linear codes derived from the zero-divisor graph $\Gamma(R)$ of the finite local ring $R = \mathbb{F}_p[x]/\langle x^4 \rangle$ for an odd prime $p$. Using an equitable partition of $Z^*(R)$, we determine the parameters of the binary incidence code of $\Gamma(R)$ and construct induced bipartite subgr...

The rank of $\mathbb{Z}_{2^s}$-linear Hadamard codes

The canonical $\mathbb{Z}_{2^s}$-linear Hadamard codes are the Gray images of the $\mathbb{Z}_{2^s}$-additive codes. Their rank, the dimension of the binary linear span, was known in closed form only for $s\le 3$, and for $s \ge 4$ only through computer computations for small lengths. We give a method that computes the...

Harmonic maps from $\mathbb{S}^{2n+1}$ to $\mathbb{C}P^n$ with low Morse index

We study the Jacobi spectrum and low-index rigidity of complex Hopf fibrations. We first give a representation-theoretic description of the Jacobi operator of a homogeneous Riemannian fibration and apply it to \[ \pi:(\mathbb{S}^{2n+1},g_\epsilon)\longrightarrow(\mathbb{C}P^n,h), \] where $g_\epsilon$ is a Berger metri...

Octonions, Albert vectors and the group ${}^2 \mathrm{E}_6(F)$

We extend the explicit octonionic approach to groups of type $\mathrm{E}_6$ to the twisted groups ${}^2\mathrm{SE}_{6,K}(F)$ associated with a quadratic Galois extension $K/F$. These groups act on the Albert space over $K$, preserving the Dickson--Freudenthal determinant and a Hermitean form. When the field norm $K^{\t...
