Summary :

We propose a new class of binary nonlinear codes of constant weights derived from a permutation representation of a group that is given by a combinatorial definition such as Cayley graphs of a group. These codes are constructed by the following direct interpretation method from a group: (1) take one discrete group whose elements are defined by generators and their relations, such as those in the form of Cayley graphs; and (2) embedding the group into a binary space using some of their permutation representations by providing the generators with realization of permutations of some terms. The proposed codes are endowed with some good characteristics as follows: (a) we can easily learn information about the distances of the obtained codes, and moreover, (b) we can establish a decoding method for them that can correct random errors whose distances from code words are less than half of the minimum distances achieved using only parity checking procedures.
