The conorm code of an AG-code

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given a suitable extension F′/F of algebraic function fields over a finite field mathbbFq, we introduce the conorm code extConF′/F(mathcalC) defined over F′ which is constructed from an algebraic geometry code mathcalC defined over F. We study the parameters of extConF′/F(mathcalC) in terms of the parameters of mathcalC, the ramification behavior of the places used to define mathcalC and the genus of F. In the case of unramified extensions of function fields we prove that extConF′/F(mathcalC)perp=extConF′/F(mathcalCperp) when the degree of the extension is coprime to the characteristic of mathbbFq. We also study the conorm of cyclic algebraic-geometry codes and we show that some repetition codes, Hermitian codes and all Reed-Solomon codes can be represented as conorm codes.
