Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes can provide an optimum linear coding solution for the two-user binary adder channel. LCD codes also can be used to against side-channel attacks and fault non-invasive attacks. Let $d_{LCD}(n, k)$ denote the maximum value of $d$ for which a binary $[n,k, d]$ LCD code exists. In \cite{BS21}, Bouyuklieva conjectured that $d_{LCD}(n+1, k)=d_{LCD}(n, k)$ or $d_{LCD}(n, k) + 1$ for any lenth $n$ and dimension $k \ge 2$. In this paper, we first prove Bouyuklieva's conjecture \cite{BS21} by constructing a binary $[n,k,d-1]$ LCD codes from a binary $[n+1,k,d]$ $LCD_{o,e}$ code, when $d \ge 3$ and $k \ge 2$. Then we provide a distance lower bound for binary LCD codes by expanded codes, and use this bound and some methods such as puncturing, shortening, expanding and extension, we construct some new binary LCD codes. Finally, we improve some previously known values of $d_{LCD}(n, k)$ of lengths $38 \le n \le 40$ and dimensions $9 \le k \le 15$. We also obtain some values of $d_{LCD}(n, k)$ with $41 \le n \le 50$ and $6 \le k \le n-6$.
Linear complementary dual codes (LCD codes) are codes whose intersections with their dual codes are trivial. These codes were introduced by Massey in 1992. LCD codes have wide applications in data storage, communication systems, and cryptography. Niederreiter-Rosenbloom-Tsfasman LCD codes (NRT-LCD codes) were introduced by Heqian, Guangku and Wei as a generalization of LCD codes for the NRT metric space $M_{n,s}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$. In this paper, we study LCD$[n\times s,k]$, the maximum minimum NRT distance among all binary $[n\times s,k]$ NRT-LCD codes. We prove the existence (non-existence) of…
We give two methods for constructing many linear complementary dual (LCD for short) codes from a given LCD code, by modifying some known methods for constructing self-dual codes. Using the methods, we construct binary LCD codes and quaternary Hermitian LCD codes, which improve the previously known lower bound on the largest minimum weights.
Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes are linear codes that intersect with their dual codes trivially. We study the largest minimum weight $d_2(n,k)$ among all binary LCD $[n,k]$ codes and the largest minimum weight $d_3(n,k)$ among all ternary LCD $[n,k]$ codes. The largest minimum weights $d_2(n,5)$ and $d_3(n,4)$ are partially determined. We also determine the largest minimum weights $d_2(n,n-5)$, $d_3(n,n-i)$ for $i \in \{2,3,4\}$, and $d_3(n,k)$ for $n \in \{11,12,\ldots,19\}$.
The aim of this work is to study the structure and properties of the binary LCD codes having an automorphisms of odd prime order and to present a method for their construction.
Linear complementary dual codes (or codes with complementary duals) are codes whose intersections with their dual codes are trivial. These codes were first introduced by Massey in 1964. Nowadays, LCD codes are extensively studied in the literature and widely applied in data storage, cryptography, etc. In this paper, we prove some properties of binary LCD codes using their shortened and punctured codes. We also present some inequalities for the largest minimum weight $d_{LCD}(n,k)$ of binary LCD [n,k] codes for given length n and dimension k. Furthermore, we give two tables with the values of $…
Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes are linear codes which intersect their dual codes trivially, which have been of interest and extensively studied due to their practical applications in computational complexity and information protection. In this paper, we give some methods for constructing LCD codes over small finite fields by modifying some typical methods for constructing linear codes. We show that all odd-like binary LCD codes, ternary LCD codes and quaternary Hermitian LCD codes can be constructed using the modified methods. Our results improve the known lower bounds on the largest mi…
Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes, which is a class of linear codes introduced by Massey, have been extensively studied in literature recently. It has been shown that LCD codes can help to improve the security of the information processed by sensitive devices, especially against so-called side-channel attacks (SCA) and fault invasive attacks. In this paper, Tables are presented of good quaternary Hermitian LCD codes and there are used in the construction of puncturing, extending, shortening and combination codes. Results including tables 3 of the best-known quaternary Hermitian LCD codes o…
We propose a method for a classification of quaternary Hermitian LCD codes having large minimum weights. As an example, we give a classification of quaternary optimal Hermitian LCD codes of dimension 3.
In this paper, we give a new method for constructing LCD codes. We employ group rings and a well known map that sends group ring elements to a subring of the $n \times n$ matrices to obtain LCD codes. Our construction method guarantees that our LCD codes are also group codes, namely, the codes are ideals in a group ring. We show that with a certain condition on the group ring element $v,$ one can construct non-trivial group LCD codes. Moreover, we also show that by adding more constraints on the group ring element $v,$ one can construct group LCD codes that are reversible. We present many exam…
Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes are linear codes that intersect with their dual trivially. We give a characterization of LCD codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ having large minimum weights for $q \in \{2,3\}$. Using the characterization, we determine the largest minimum weights among LCD $[n,k]$ codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ for $(q,k) \in \{(2,4), (3,2),(3,3)\}$. Moreover, we give a complete classification of optimal LCD $[n,k]$ codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ for $(q,k) \in \{(2,3), (2,4), (3,2),(3,3)\}$.
We establish a complete classification of binary group codes with complementary duals for a finite group and explicitly determine the number of linear complementary dual (LCD) cyclic group codes by using cyclotomic cosets. The dimension and the minimum distance for LCD group codes are explored. Finally, we find a connection between LCD MDS group codes and maximal ideals.
Absolute coset leaders were first proposed by the authors which have advantages in constructing binary LCD BCH codes. As a continue work, in this paper we focus on ternary linear codes. Firstly, we find the largest, second largest, and third largest absolute coset leaders of ternary primitive BCH codes. Secondly, we present three classes of ternary primitive BCH codes and determine their weight distributions. Finally, we obtain some LCD BCH codes and calculate some weight distributions. However, the calculation of weight distributions of two of these codes is equivalent to that of Kloosterman …

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$, a prime power integer such that $q=et+1$ where $t\geq 1,e\geq 2$ are integers. In this paper, we study cyclic codes of length $n$ over a non-chain ring $R_{e,q}=\mathbb{F}_q[u]/\langle u^e-1\rangle$. We define a Gray map $φ$ and obtain many { maximum-distance-separable} (MDS) and optimal $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear codes from the Gray images of cyclic codes. Under certain conditions we determine { linear complementary dual} (LCD) codes of length $n$ when $\gcd(n,q)\neq 1$ and $\gcd(n,q)= 1$, respectively. It is proved that { a} cyclic code $\mathcal…
Nowadays, the resistance against algebraic attacks and fast algebraic attacks are considered as an important cryptographic property for Boolean functions used in stream ciphers. Both attacks are very powerful analysis concepts and can be applied to symmetric cryptographic algorithms used in stream ciphers. The notion of algebraic immunity has received wide attention since it is a powerful tool to measure the resistance of a Boolean function to standard algebraic attacks. Nevertheless, an algebraic tool to handle the resistance to fast algebraic attacks is not clearly identified in the literatu…
Double Toeplitz (DT) codes are codes with a generator matrix of the form $(I,T)$ with $T$ a Toeplitz matrix, that is to say constant on the diagonals parallel to the main. When $T$ is tridiagonal and symmetric we determine its spectrum explicitly by using Dickson polynomials, and deduce from there conditions for the code to be LCD. Using a special concatenation process, we construct optimal or quasi-optimal examples of binary and ternary LCD codes from DT codes over extension fields.
From a given $[n, k]$ code $C$, we give a method for constructing many $[n, k]$ codes $C'$ such that the hull dimensions of $C$ and $C'$ are identical. This method can be applied to constructions of both self-dual codes and linear complementary dual codes (LCD codes for short). Using the method, we construct 661 new inequivalent extremal doubly even $[56, 28, 12]$ codes. Furthermore, constructing LCD codes by the method, we improve some of the previously known lower bounds on the largest minimum weights of binary LCD codes of length $n=26,28 \le n \le 40$.
In this paper, we give a method for constructing linear codes with small hulls by generalizing the method in \cite{LCD-T-matric}. As a result, we obtain many optimal Euclidean LCD codes and Hermitian LCD codes, which improve the previously known lower bound on the largest minimum distance. We also obtain many optimal codes with one-dimension hull. Furthermore, we give three tables about formally self-dual LCD codes.
Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are optimal where the minimum distance cannot be improved for a given length and code size. Twisted Reed-Solomon codes over finite fields were introduced in 2017, which are generalization of Reed-Solomon codes. Twisted Reed-Solomon codes can be applied in cryptography which prefer the codes with large minimum distance. MDS codes can be constructed from twisted Reed-Solomon codes, and most of them are not equivalent to Reed-Solomon codes. In this paper, we first generalize twisted Reed-Solomon codes to generalized twisted Reed-Solomon codes, then we give s…
In this work, we study and determine the dimensions of Euclidean and Hermitian hulls of two classical propagation rules, namely, the direct sum construction and the $(\mathbf{u},\mathbf{u+v})$-construction. Some new criteria for the resulting codes derived from these two propagation rules being self-dual, self-orthogonal, or linear complementary dual (LCD) codes are given. As an application, we construct some linear codes with prescribed hull dimensions, many new binary, ternary Euclidean formally self-dual (FSD) LCD codes, and quaternary Hermitian FSD LCD codes. Some new even-like, odd-like, …
