Consecutive Switch Codes

Editorial: Could Speciation Across Evolution be Governed by Genetic Switch Codes at Short Tandem Repeats?

Epigenetic Codes Programing Class Switch Recombination

Class switch recombination imparts B cells with a fitness-associated adaptive -advantage during a humoral immune response by using a precision-tailored DNA excision and ligation process to swap the default constant region gene of the antibody with a new one that has unique effector functions. This secondary diversification of the antibody repertoire is a hallmark of the adaptability of B cells ...

Inappropriate mode switch consecutive to P-wave double counting.

We report a case of multiple inappropriate mode switches in a patient with a dual-chamber pacemaker, resulting from P-wave double counting due to a double potential on the atrial electrogram. The differential diagnosis of this rarely reported phenomenon is discussed.

On Semigroups Generated by Two Consecutive Integers and Hermitian Codes

Analysis of the Berlekamp-Massey-Sakata algorithm for decoding onepoint codes leads to two methods for improving code rate. One method, due to Feng and Rao, removes parity checks that may be recovered by their majority voting algorithm. The second method is to design the code to correct only those error vectors of a given weight that are also geometrically generic. In this work, formulae are gi...

Consecutive Weierstrass Gaps and Minimum Distance of Goppa Codes

We prove that if there are consecutive gaps at a rational point on a smooth curve defined over a finite field, then one can improve the usual lower bound on the minimum distance of certain algebraic-geometric codes defined using a multiple of the point. A q-ary linear code of length n and dimension k is a vector subspace of dimension k of Fq , where Fq denotes the finite field with q elements. ...
