6 The ζ-polynomial and the ζ-function of a linear code Theorem (Duursma ): For any linear code C of genus g 0 with dual C of genus g 0 there is a unique g+g ζ-polynomial P C (t) = a i t i Q[t] with W C (x, y) = g+g a i M n,d+i (x, y) and P C (1) = 1. The quotient ζ C (t) = P C(t) (1 t)(1 qt) is the ζ-function of C.

23 Riemann-Roch Conditions for a curve Immediate consequences of the Riemann-Roch Theorem on a smooth irreducible curve X/F q P N (F q ) of genus g are the Riemann-Roch Conditions A m (X) = q m g+1 A 2g 2 m (X) + (q m g+1 1)Res 1 (ζ X (t)) for m g and the residuum Res 1 (ζ X (t)) of ζ X (t) at t = 1.

24 Polarized Riemann-Roch Conditions Definition: Formal power series ζ(t) = m=0 A m t m and ζ (t) = A mt m satisfy the Polarized Riemann-Roch Conditions PRRC(g, g ) for some g, g Z 0 if A m = q m g+1 A g+g 2 m +(qm g+1 1)Res 1 (ζ(t)) for m g, A g 1 = A g 1 and A m = q m g +1 A g+g 2 m+(q m g +1 1)Res 1 (ζ (t)) for m g, where Res 1 (ζ(t)), Res 1 (ζ (t)) are the residuums at t = 1.

25 Riemann-Roch Conditions imply rationality Note that PRRC(g, g ) imply the recurrence relations A m+2 (q + 1)A m+1 + qa m = A m+2 (q + 1)A m+1 + qa m = 0 for m g + g 1, which hold exactly when ζ(t) = P(t) (1 t)(1 qt), ζ (t) = for polynomials P(t), P (t) C[t]. P (t) (1 t)(1 qt)

26 Mac Williams identities as PRRC Theorem: Mac Williams identities for an F q -linear [n, k, d]-code C of genus g := n + 1 k d 0 and its dual C F n q of genus g = k + 1 d 0 are equivalent to the Polarized Riemann-Roch Conditions PRRC(g, g ) on their ζ-functions ζ C (t), ζ C (t).

27 Definition of Duursma s reduced polynomial Proposition (KM ): Let C be an F q -linear [n, k, d]-code of genus g = n + 1 k d 1, whose dual C is of genus g = k + 1 d 1. Then there is a unique Duursma s reduced g+g 2 polynomial D C (t) = c i t i Q[t], such that W C (x, y) = M n,n+1 k (x, y) + g+g 2 ( (q 1)c n i d+i) (x y) n d i y d+i.

28 D C and D C are determined by g + g 1 parameters Corollary: The lower parts ϕ C (t) = g 2 of Duursma s reduced polynomials D C (t) = D C (t) = g+g 2 c i t i, ϕ C (t) = g+g 2 c i t i, g 2 c i t i and the number c g 1 = c g 1 Q determine uniquely ( ) 1 D C (t) = ϕ C (t) + c g 1 t g 1 + ϕ C q g 1 t g+g 2, qt ( ) 1 D C (t) = ϕ C (t) + c g 1 t g 1 + ϕ C q g 1 t g+g 2. qt c i t i

29 The coefficients of Duursma s reduced polynomial Corollary: If C if an F q -linear code of genus g 1 with g+g 2 Duursma s reduced polynomial D C (t) = c i t i Q[t], then ( ) n c i Z 0 for 0 i g + g 2. d + i A linear code C F n q is non-degenerate if it is not contained in a coordinate hyperplane V(x i ) = {a F n q a i = 0} for some 1 i n.

30 The coefficients of Duursma s reduced polynomial Corollary: If C if an F q -linear code of genus g 1 with g+g 2 Duursma s reduced polynomial D C (t) = c i t i Q[t], then ( ) n c i Z 0 for 0 i g + g 2. d + i A linear code C F n q is non-degenerate if it is not contained in a coordinate hyperplane V(x i ) = {a F n q a i = 0} for some 1 i n.

31 An averaging interpretation of the coefficients of Duursma s reduced polynomial Proposition: Let C be a non-degenerate F q -linear code with g+g 2 Duursma s reduced polynomial D C (t) = c i t i Q[t] and P(C) ( β) = {[a] P(C) P(F n q) Supp([a]) β} for β = {β 1,..., β d+i } {1,..., n} with 0 i g 1. Then ( ) n 1 c i = P(C) ( β) d + i β={β 1,...,β d+i } {1,...,n} is the average cardinality of an intersection of P(C) with n d i coordinate hyperplanes in P(F n q).

32 Probabilistic interpretations of the coefficients of Duursma s reduced polynomial Proposition: Let C be an F q -linear code with Duursma s g+g 2 reduced polynomial D C (t) = c i t i Q[t]. If π (w) P(C), respectively, π (w) P(C ) is the probability of [b] P(Fn q) with wt([b]) = w to belong to P(C), respectively, to P(C ), then c i = d+i w=d π (w) P(C) [ n d i c i = q i g+1 ( d + i w w=d π (w) P(C ) ) (q 1) w 1 for 0 i g 1; ( ] n d i )(q 1) w 1, g i g+g 2. w

33 Probabilistic interpretations of the coefficients of Duursma s reduced polynomial Proposition: Let C be an F q -linear code with Duursma s g+g 2 reduced polynomial D C (t) = c i t i Q[t]. If π (w) [a] is the probability of β = {β 1,..., β w } {1,..., n} to contain the support Supp([a]) of [a] P(F n q), then c i = c i = q i g+1 [a] P(C) [b] P(C ) π (d+i) [a] for 0 i g 1; π (n d i) [b] for g i g + g 2.
