On nonsystematic perfect binary codes of length 15

From MaRDI portal





A perfect code \(C\) of length \(n\) is systematic if there are \(n-\log(n+1)\) coordinates such that the code \(C\) deleted in the remaining \(\log(n+1)\) coordinates coincides with \(E^{n-\log(n+1)}\). Two nonequivalent nonsystematic perfect binary codes of length 15 are constructed using a switching approach. Earlier, \textit{S. V. Avgustinovich} and \textit{F. I. Solov'eva} [Probl. Inf. Transm. 32, No. 3, 258-261 (1996); see also Zbl 0923.94035] constructed a class of nonsystematic perfect binary codes of length \(n = 2^k - 1\), \(k > 7\), by using a switching approach. \textit{K. Phelps} and \textit{M. LeVan} presented such perfect codes for \(5 \leq k \leq 7\) by using a switching approach too [SIAM J. Discrete Math. 12, No. 1, 27-34 (1999)]. The question is still unanswered whether the nonsystematic perfect codes of length 15 given by K. Phelps and M. LeVan are equivalent to codes given by A. M. Romanov.
