Weight hierarchies of 3-weight linear codes from two $p$-ary quadratic functions (2306.07516v1)

Abstract: The weight hierarchy of a linear code has been an important research topic in coding theory since Wei's original work in 1991. Choosing $ D=\Big{(x,y)\in \Big(\F_{p^{s_1}}\times\F_{p^{s_2}}\Big)\Big\backslash{(0,0)}: f(x)+g(y)=0\Big}$ as a defining set , where $f(x),g(y)$ are quadratic forms over $\mathbb{F}_{p^{s_i}},i=1,2$, respectively, with values in $\F_p$, we construct a family of 3-weight $p$-ary linear codes and determine their weight distributions and weight hierarchies completely. Most of the codes can be used in secret sharing schemes.
