Abstract

Finite projective geometry method is effectively used to study the relative generalized Hamming weights of 4-dimensional linear codes, which are divided into 9 classes in order to get much more information about the relative generalized Hamming weights, and part of the relative generalized Hamming weights of a 4-dimensional linear code with a 1-dimensional subcode are determined.
