Abstract. We present transformations of linearly ordered sets into ordered abelian groups and ordered fields. We study effective properties of the transformations. In particular, w...
A black-box secret sharing scheme (BBSSS) for a given access structure works in exactly the same way over any finite Abelian group, as it only requires black-box access to group o...
We show that an affine-invariant code C of length pm is not permutation equivalent to a cyclic code except in the obvious cases: m = 1 or C is either {0}, the repetition code or it...
