Project description
 

The primary objective of the project is to study and develop the connections between Coding theory and geometric objects in finite projective spaces. The project will focus on particular types of linear and non-linear geometric objects such as constant dimension subspace codes, maximum rank distance codes, two-character sets, and intriguing sets of finite classical polar spaces.
