Abstract

Let A(n,d) denote the maximum possible number of codewords in a binary code of length n and minimum Hamming distance d. For large values of n, the best known upper bound, for fixed d, is the Johnson bound. We give a new upper bound which is at least as good as the Johnson bound for all values of n and d, and for each d there are infinitely many values of n for which the new bound is better than the Johnson bound. For small values of n and d, the best known method to obtain upper bounds on A(n,d) is linear programming. We give new inequalities for the linear programming and show that with these new inequalities some of the known bounds on A(n,d) for n&les;28 are improved

Upper bounds for constant-weight codes

Let A(n,d,w) denote the maximum possible number of codewords in an (n,d,w) constant-weight binary code. We improve upon the best known upper bounds on A(n,d,w) in numerous instances for n&les;24 and d&les;12, which is the parameter range of existing ...
Nonasymptotic Upper Bounds for Deletion Correcting Codes

Explicit nonasymptotic upper bounds on the sizes of multiple-deletion correcting codes are presented. In particular, the largest single-deletion correcting code for $q$-ary alphabet and string length $n$ is shown to be of size at most $ {{ q^{n}-q}\...
New upper bounds on Lee codes

The paper considers exact values of and upper bounds on the maximal cardinality A"q^L(n,d) of a q-ary Lee code of length n with a minimum distance >=d. Special attention is paid to small parameters. Some new results are presented and tables with the ...
