Linear codes from vectorial Boolean power functions

摘要

In this paper, three classes of binary linear codes with few weights are proposed from vectorial Boolean power functions, and their weight distributions are completely determined by solving certain equations over finite fields. In particular, a class of simplex codes and a class of first-order Reed-Muller codes can be obtained from our construction by taking the identity map, whose dual codes are Hamming codes and extended Hamming codes, respectively.
