Let $C_m:=\mathrm{BCH}(3,m)$ be the binary primitive triple-error-correcting BCH code of length $2^m-1$. We determine its second generalized covering radius exactly: $R_2(C_m)=8$ for every $m\geq5$. Equivalently, every two-dimensional syndrome subspace is contained in the binary span of at most eight parity-check columns, and eight columns are necessary in the worst case. This matches the known lower bound.
We study the generalized covering radii of binary primitive BCH codes, which measure how many parity-check columns suffice to span several prescribed syndromes. For the four-error-correcting family of length $2^m-1$, the second radius is exactly $11$ for $m\geq55$, and it is either $11$ or $12$ for $m\geq16$. For every...

The quaternary Preparata codes of Hammons, Kumar, Calderbank, Sloane and Sol\'e are $\mathbb{Z}_4$-linear codes of length $2^m$ with $4^{2^m-m-1}$ codewords. They are usually studied through their binary Gray images, that is, in the Lee metric. We consider them instead as codes over a 4-letter alphabet with the Hamming...
A storage code on a graph assigns a symbol to each vertex so that the symbol can be recovered from its neighbors. We prove that the binary full-parity storage codes on triangle-free coset graphs of primitive BCH codes have rate tending to one for every fixed error-correction capability of at least two. The conclusion a...
Fix integers $e\ge2$ and $r\ge1$. In this paper we study the $r$-th generalized covering radius $\rho_r\left(BCH(e,m)\right)$ of the binary primitive $e$-error-correcting BCH code $BCH(e,m)$. By using an algebraic-geometric reformulation of the covering problem together with an explicit Lang-Weil estimate, we prove tha...
In this paper, we give a classification of the minimum weight codewords of Schubert codes $C_\alpha(\ell, m)$ by settling the conjecture proposed by Ghorpade and Singh in 2018, for all values of $q$ and all $\alpha$. We use this classification to prove that a codeword of the Grassmann code $C(\ell, m)$ has the second m...
We study binary quasi-cyclic LDPC codes whose parity-check matrices are full arrays of single circulant permutation matrices (CPMs), referred to here as CPM-LDPC codes. Their minimum distance is at most $(J+1)!$, where $J$ is the column weight. For every fixed pair of column and row weights $2\le J<L$, we show that thi...
