Title
On the next-to-minimal weight of affine cartesian codes.
Abstract
In this paper we determine many values of the second least weight of codewords, also known as the next-to-minimal Hamming weight, for a type of affine variety codes, obtained by evaluating polynomials of degree up to d on the points of a cartesian product of n subsets of a finite field F q . Such codes firstly appeared in a work by O. Geil and C. Thomsen (see 12) as a special case of the so-called weighted Reed-Muller codes, and later appeared independently in a work by H. López, C. Rentería-Marquez and R. Villarreal (see 16) named as affine cartesian codes. Our work extends, to affine cartesian codes, the results obtained by Rolland in 17 for generalized Reed-Muller codes.
