Popis: | A cyclic (n,d,w)q code is a cyclic q-ary code of length n, constant weight w and minimum distance d. Let CAq(n,d,w) denote the largest possible size of a cyclic (n,d,w)q code. The pure and mixed difference method plays an important role in the determination of upper bound on CAq(n,d,w). By analyzing the distribution of odd mixed and pure differences, an improved upper bound on CA4(n,3,3) is obtained for n≡2,4(mod8). A new construction based on special sequences is provided and the exact value of CA4(n,d,3) is almost completely determined for all d and n except when d=3 and n≢18(mod24). Our constructions reveal intimate connections between cyclic constant weight codes and special sequences, particularly Skolem-type sequences. |
