Finding minimum weight codeword of MDS RS code

For a $[n,k,n-k+1]_q$ Reed Solomon code is there a polynomial time algorithm to find at least one minimum weight $(n-k+1)$ codeword? I searched in literature and I could not find one and hence I am su …

Shortest possible good codes?

Good codes (those with positive rate $r=k/n$ and positive relative distance $\delta=d/n$) will achieve capacity on $BSC$ (binary symmetric channel) if the codes have lower rates than capacity where po …

Hamming weight probability of projections

Given $s,t\in(0,1)$, $c>1$, $n\in\Bbb N$, pick $2^{n^t}$ random vectors $\{v_i\}_{i=1}^{2^{n^t}}$ such that each $v_i\in\{x\in\{0,1\}^{2^n}:|x|_{hamming}={2^{n-n^s}}\}$. If $v_i^\perp$ is projection …
