摘要
For any affine-variety code we show how to construct an ideal whose solutions correspond to codewords with any assigned weight. We are able to obtain geometric characterizations for small-weight codewords for some families of Hermitian codes over any Fe. From these geometric characterizations, we obtain explicit formulas. In particular, we determine the number of minimum-weight codewords for all Hermitian codes with d <= q and all second-weight codewords for distance-3,4 codes. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
