Codes and Algebraic Curves (Oxford Lecture Series in Mathematics and Its Applications, 8)
Codes and Algebraic Curves - Oxford Lecture Series in Mathematics and Its Applications, 8 Author:Oliver Pretzel A fascinating branch of mathematics since antiquity, the geometry of curves has been extensively developed and become highly abstract. Recently links have been made with the subject of error correction, leading to the creation of geometric Goppa codes, a new and important area of coding theory. This book gives an elementary introduction to Goppa... more » codes and includes many examples, calculations, and applications.« less
