Groups and Combinatorics Seminar, Algebraic geometry codes Other events...
Abstract:

Codes arising from algebraic geometry, first introduced by Goppa, gained attention when Tsfasman–Vladut–Zink used them to improve the Gilbert-Varshamow bound. We will give a gentle introduction to some of the beautiful ideas from algebraic geometry used to build these codes. We will then show how to construct them, and then discuss the Tsfasman–Vladut–Zink bound. There will be an emphasis on examples.
