Title: Lattices and codes
Abstract:
The purpose of coding theory is the design of efficient systems for the trasmission of information. The mathematical treatment leads to certain finite structures: the error-correcting codes. In particular, we will study a connection between codes and lattices. Lattices are studied in number theory and in the geometry of numbers. Many problems about codes have their counterpart in problems about lattices.
