ALCOMA 20

Together with Sascha Kurz and Alfred Wassermann, I'm organizing the conference ALCOMA 20 (International conference on Algebraic Combinatorics and Applications), 2020-3-29–2020-4-4 in Kloster Banz, Lichtenfels, Germany. For further information please visit the ALCOMA 20 homepage.
UPDATE: The conference has been canceled due to COVID-19.

Thesis

Geometrische Konstruktionen linearer Codes über Galois-Ringen der Charakteristik 4 von hoher homogener Minimaldistanz

The following image shows the projective Hjelmslev plane over the integers modulo 4. The black circles indicate a maximal (7,2)-arc, which is unique up to geometric isomorphism. Its Gray image generates the expurgated Nordstrom-Robinson code, a nonlinear binary [14,6,6]-code which has better minimum distance than any linear binary [14,6]-code.
Projective Hjelmslev Plane over Z_4

Miscellaneous

In this preprint we classified the (6,4;3)2 constant dimension subspace codes of maximum possible size. It turned out that the maximum size is 77, and that there are 5 isomorphism classes of those codes:
  1. #Aut = 168, self-dual, list of subspaces
  2. #Aut = 48, self-dual, list of subspaces
  3. #Aut = 2, self-dual, list of subspaces
  4. #Aut = 2, dual code of 5, list of subspaces
  5. #Aut = 2, dual code of 4, list of subspaces
