DESIGNS FROM LINEAR CODES

This monograph aims to provide a well-rounded and detailed account of designs using linear codes. Most chapters of this monograph cover on the designs of linear codes. A few chapters deal with designs obtained from linear codes in other ways. Connections among ovals, hyperovals, maximal arcs, ovoids, linear codes and designs are also investigated. This book consists of both classical results on designs from linear codes and recent results yet published by others.This monograph is intended to be a reference for postgraduates and researchers who work on combinatorics, or coding theory, or digital communications, or finite geometry.
