Abstract:A code C in a generalised quadrangle Q is defined to be a subset of the vertex set of the point-line incidence graph Γ of Q. The minimum distance δ of C is the smallest distance between a pair of distinct elements of C. The graph metric gives rise to the distance partition {C, C 1 , . . . , C ρ }, where ρ is the maximum distance between any vertex of Γ and its nearest element of C. Since the diameter of Γ is 4, both ρ and δ are at most 4. If δ = 4 then C is a partial ovoid or partial spread of Q, and if, addit… Show more
