Some new bounds on LCD codes over finite fields

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper, we show that LCD codes are not equivalent to linear codes over small finite fields. The enumeration of binary optimal LCD codes is obtained. We also get the exact value of LD(n,2) over mathbbF3 and mathbbF4. We study the bound of LCD codes over mathbbFq.


Let \(\mathbb{F}_q\) be a finite field with \(q\) elements. A linear code \(C\) has complementary dual (or LCD) over \(\mathbb{F}_q\) if \(C\bigoplus{C}^{\perp} = F^n_q\). In this paper, the authors show that LCD codes are not equivalent to non-LCD codes over small finite fields. \(\mathrm{LD}(n, k)\) is defined as the maximum of \(d\) such that there exists an \([n, k, d]\) LCD code over \(\mathbb{F}_q.\) The authors have obtained the value for \(\mathrm{LD}(n,2)\) over \(\mathbb{F}_3.\) Further, the authors generalize a conjecture, by \textit{L. Galvez} et al. [Cryptogr. Commun. 10, No. 4, 719--728 (2018; Zbl 1391.94844)], for any finite field \(\mathbb{F}_q\) which states that, let \(n\) and \(k\) be two positive integers, where \(k>0\), then \(\mathrm{LD}(n + 1, k) \ge \mathrm{LD}(n, k)\).
