Minimum-weight codewords of the Hermitian codes are supported on complete intersections

Abstract: Let H be the Hermitian curve defined over a finite field F q 2 . In this paper we complete the geometrical characterization of the supports of the minimumweight codewords of the algebraic-geometry codes over H, started in [26]: if d is the distance of the code, the supports are all the sets of d distinct F q 2 -points on H complete intersection of two curves defined by polynomials with prescribed initial monomials w.r.t. DegRevLex.For most Hermitian codes, and especially for all those with distance d ≥ q 2 − q… Show more

“…We also point out that analogous results for codes of the other phases, namely codes C m with m < 2q 2 − 2q − 2, has been obtained by the authors in [27]. Finally, a generalization to codewords of small weight is in progress and we are confident that, from this strong geometric characterization, also the explicit computation of the weight distribution will follow.…”

“…In [27] we have tested our new geometrical approach for codes of phases 1-2, both from a theoretical and a computational point of view, while in the present paper we have tested it for codes of phases 3-4, thus developing the radically different approach sought-after in [26]. We are also confident that this could be a powerful tool also to study the weights distribution of Hermitian codes and to design an efficient algorithm of error detection and correction.…”
