Entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) make use of preexisting entanglement between the sender and receiver to boost the rate of transmission. It is possible to construct an EAQECC from any classical linear code, unlike standard quantum error-correcting codes, which can only be constructed from dual-containing codes. However, the parameter of ebits $c$ is usually calculated by computer search. In this paper, we construct four classes of MDS entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (MDS EAQECCs) based on $k$-Galois LCD MDS codes for some certain code lengths, where the parameter of ebits $c$ can be easily generated algebraically and not by computational search. Moreover, the constructed four classes of EAQECCs are also maximal-entanglement EAQECCs.
In this paper, we study the complementary dual codes in more general setting (which are called Galois LCD codes) by a uniform method. A necessary and sufficient condition for linear codes to be Galois LCD codes is determined, and constacyclic codes to be Galois LCD codes are characterized. Some illustrative examples which constacyclic codes are Galois LCD MDS codes are provided as well. In particular, we study Hermitian LCD constacyclic codes. Finally, we present a construction of a class of Hermitian LCD codes which are also MDS codes.
In \cite{anote}, Wu and Shi studied $ l $-Galois LCD codes over finite chain ring $\mathcal{R}=\mathbb{F}_q+u\mathbb{F}_q$, where $u^2=0$ and $ q=p^e$ for some prime $p$ and positive integer $e$. In this work, we extend the results to the finite non chain ring $ \mathcal{R} =\mathbb{F}_q+u\mathbb{F}_q+v\mathbb{F}_q+uv\mathbb{F}_q$, where $u^2=u,v^2=v $ and $ uv=vu $. We define a correspondence between $ l $-Galois dual of linear codes over $ \mathcal{R} $ and $ l $-Galois dual of its component codes over $ \mathbb{F}_q .$ Further, we construct Euclidean LCD and $ l $-Galois LCD codes from line…
This paper investigates the existence, enumeration and asymptotic performance of self-dual and LCD double circulant codes over Galois rings of characteristic $p^2$ and order $p^4$ with $p$ and odd prime. When $p \equiv 3 \pmod{4},$ we give an algorithm to construct a duality preserving bijective Gray map from such a Galois ring to $\mathbb{Z}_{p^2}^2.$ Using random coding, we obtain families of asymptotically good self-dual and LCD codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^2},$ for the metric induced by the standard $\mathbb{F}_p$-valued Gray maps.
The $\ell$-Galois hull $h_{\ell}(C)$ of an $[n,k]$ linear code $C$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is the intersection of $C$ and $C^{{\bot}_{\ell}}$, where $C^{\bot_{\ell}}$ denotes the $\ell$-Galois dual of $C$ which introduced by Fan and Zhang (2017). The $\ell$- Galois LCD code is a linear code $C$ with $h_{\ell}(C) = 0$. In this paper, we show that the dimension of the $\ell$-Galois hull of a linear code is invariant under permutation equivalence and we provide a method to calculate the dimension of the $\ell$-Galois hull by the generator matrix of the code. Moreover, we obtain that th…
The Galois hull of a linear code is the intersection of itself and its Galois dual code, which has aroused the interest of researchers in these years. In this paper, we study Galois hulls of linear codes. Firstly, the symmetry of the dimensions of Galois hulls of linear codes is found. Some new necessary and sufficient conditions for linear codes being Galois self-orthogonal codes, Galois self-dual codes, and Galois linear complementary dual codes are characterized. Then, we propose explicit methods to construct Galois self-orthogonal codes of larger length from given Galois self-orthogonal co…
Linear complementary pairs (LCP) of codes play an important role in armoring implementations against side-channel attacks and fault injection attacks. One of the most common ways to construct LCP of codes is to use Euclidean linear complementary dual (LCD) codes. In this paper, we first introduce the concept of linear codes with $σ$ complementary dual ($σ$-LCD), which includes known Euclidean LCD codes, Hermitian LCD codes, and Galois LCD codes. As Euclidean LCD codes, $σ$-LCD codes can also be used to construct LCP of codes. We show that, for $q > 2$, all q-ary linear codes are $σ$-LCD and th…
For a prime power $q$, an integer $m$ and $0\leq e\leq m-1$ we study the $e$-Galois hull dimension of Gabidulin codes $G_k(\boldsymbolα)$ of length $m$ and dimension $k$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$. Using a self-dual basis $\boldsymbolα$ of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$, we first explicitly compute the hull dimension of $G_k(\boldsymbolα)$. Then a necessary and sufficient condition of $G_k(\boldsymbolα)$ to be linear complementary dual (LCD), self-orthogonal and self-dual will be provided. We prove the existence of $e$-Galois (where $e=\frac{m}{2}$) self-dual Gabidulin codes of length $m$…
Galois hulls of linear codes have important applications in quantum coding theory. In this paper, we construct some new classes of (extended) generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes with Galois hulls of arbitrary dimensions. We also propose a general method on constructing GRS codes with Galois hulls of arbitrary dimensions from special Euclidean orthogonal GRS codes. Finally, we construct several new families of entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) and MDS EAQECCs by utilizing the above results.
Entanglement-assisted quantum error correcting codes (EAQECCs) are a simple and fundamental class of codes. They allow for the construction of quantum codes from classical codes by relaxing the duality condition and using pre-shared entanglement between the sender and receiver. However, in general it is not easy to determine the number of shared pairs required to construct an EAQECC. In this paper, we show that this number is related to the hull of the classical code. Using this fact, we give methods to construct EAQECCs requiring desirable amount of entanglement. This leads to design families…
The hull of linear codes plays an important role in quantum information and coding theory. In the present paper, by investigating the Galois hulls of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes and extended GRS codes over the finite field Fq, we give several new families of MDS codes with Galois hulls of arbitrary dimensions that are not obtained before. Some of them generalize the ones in the literature [13]. As a consequence, using these MDS codes with Galois hulls of arbitrary dimensions, we construct nine new families of MDS entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) with flex…
In this paper, we provide a framework for constructing entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) from classical additive codes over a finite commutative local Frobenius ring $\mathcal{R}$. At the heart of the framework, and this is one of the main technical contributions of our paper, is a procedure to construct, for an additive code $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathcal{R}$, a generating set for $\mathcal{C}$ that is in standard form, meaning that it consists purely of isotropic generators and hyperbolic pairs. Moreover, when $\mathcal{R}$ is a Galois ring, we give an exact expres…
