Perfect codes in the \(\ell p\) metric




Abstract: We investigate perfect codes in mathbbZn under the ellp metric. Upper bounds for the packing radius r of a linear perfect code, in terms of the metric parameter p and the dimension n are derived. For p=2 and n=2,3, we determine all radii for which there are linear perfect codes. The non-existence results for codes in mathbbZn presented here imply non-existence results for codes over finite alphabets mathbbZq, when the alphabet size is large enough, and has implications on some recent constructions of spherical codes.
