A construction of linear codes and their complete weight enumerators

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Recently, linear codes constructed from defining sets have been studied extensively. They may have nice parameters if the defining set is chosen properly. Let m>2 be a positive integer. For an odd prime p, let r=pm and extTr be the absolute trace function from mathbbFr onto mathbbFp. In this paper, we give a construction of linear codes by defining the code CD=(mathrmTr(ax))xinD:ainmathbbFr, where D=leftxinmathbbFr:mathrmTr(x)=1,mathrmTr(x2)=0ight. Its complete weight enumerator and weight enumerator are determined explicitly by employing cyclotomic numbers and Gauss sums. In addition, we obtain several optimal linear codes with a few weights. They have higher rate compared with other codes, which enables them to have essential applications in areas such as association schemes and secret sharing schemes.
