Abstract

We propose inductive constructions of perfect (n,3;n – 1)3 codes (ternary constant-weight codes of length n and weight n – 1 with distance 3), which are modifications of constructions of perfect binary codes. The construction yields at least \(2^{2^{n/2 - 2} }\) different perfect (n,3;n – 1)3 codes. To perfect (n,3;n – 1)3 codes, perfect matchings in a binary hypercube without close (at distance 1 or 2 from each other) parallel edges are equivalent.
