On the Grassmann graph of linear codes

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let Gamma(n,k) be the Grassmann graph formed by the k-dimensional subspaces of a vector space of dimension n over a field mathbbF and, for tinmathbbNsetminus0, let Deltat(n,k) be the subgraph of Gamma(n,k) formed by the set of linear [n,k]-codes having minimum dual distance at least t+1. We show that if |mathbbF|geqnchooset then Deltat(n,k) is connected and it is isometrically embedded in Gamma(n,k). This generalizes some results of [M. Kwiatkowski, M. Pankov, "On the distance between linear codes", Finite Fields Appl. 39 (2016), 251--263] and [M. Kwiatkowski, M. Pankov, A. Pasini, "The graphs of projective codes" Finite Fields Appl. 54 (2018), 15--29].
