报告简介：The Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) codes are a well-studied subclass of cyclic codes that have found numerous applications in error correction and notably in quantum information processing. They are widely used in data storage and communication systems. A subclass of attractive BCH codes is the narrow-sense BCH codes over the Galois field GF(q) with length q+1, which are closely related to the action of the projective general linear group of degree two on the projective line. Despite its interest, not much is known about this class of BCH codes. In this talk we aim to study some of the codes with in this class and specifically narrow-sense antiprimitive BCH codes (these codes are also linear complementary duals (LCD) codes that have interesting practical recent applications in cryptography, among other benefits).We shall use tools and combine arguments from algebraic coding theory, combinatorial designs, and group theory (group actions, representation theory of finite groups, etc.) to investigate narrow-sense antiprimitive BCH Codes and extend results from the recent literature. Notably, the dimension, the minimum distance of some q-ary BCH codes with length q+1, and their duals are determined. The dual codes of the narrow-sense antiprimitive BCH codes derived include almost MDS codes. Furthermore, the classification of PGL(2,pm)-invariant codes over GF(ph) is completed. As an application of this result, the p-ranks of all  in cadence structures invariant under the projective general linear group PGL(2,pm) are determined. Furthermore, infinite families of narrow-sense BCH codes admitting a 3- transitive automorphism group are obtained. Via these BCH codes, a coding theory approach to constructing the Witt spherical geometry designs is presented. The BCH codes proposed in this talk are good candidates for permutation decoding, as they have a relatively large group of automorphisms.
