Review text

The authors review Hermitian-like curves and Hermitian like codes. A new approach is introduced to determine a lower bound for the minimum distance of algebraic-geometric codes over GF(4). This bound is applied to the Hermitian-like codes over GF(4). Applying the new bound, a class of improved Hermitian-like codes over GF(4) are derived that are asymptotically better than Hermitian-like codes over GF(4). An explicit construction is given of a sequence of Hermitian-like codes over GF(4) that exceed the Garcia-Stichtenoth bound for low rates. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0909.00065].
