Viewing Multipoint Codes as Subcodes of One-Point Codes

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Gröbner Bases, Coding, and Cryptography

Abstract

We consider ways in which multipoint algebraic geometry codes may be viewed as subcodes of the more traditionally studied one-point codes. Examples are provided to illustrate the impact of choices made on this embedding.
