In this paper we find some bounds for the relative generalized Hamming weights of some codes parameterized by a set of monomials of the same degree. Also we compare the relative generalized Hamming weights of the codes CX (d) and C X (d) when X is embedded in X. We use these results to obtain some lower bounds for the relative generalized Hamming weights of the codes parameterized by the edges of any connected bipartite graph with bipartition (V1, V2) and where |V1| = n1, |V2| = n2, in terms of the relative generalized Hamming weights of the codes associated to the projective tori Tn 1 −1 and Tn 2 −1.
