New LCD MDS codes constructed from generalized Reed–Solomon codes

Abstract

Maximum distance separable codes with complementary duals (LCD MDS codes) are very important in coding theory and practice, and have attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, we focus on LCD MDS codes constructed from generalized Reed–Solomon (GRS) codes over a finite field with odd characteristic. We detail two constructions of new LCD MDS codes, using invertible matrices and the roots of three classes of polynomials, respectively.
