Aplicações do polinômio de Tutte aos códigos lineares.

Abstract

In this work we present a relation between matroid and linear codes. Numericals invariants for matroids is one the many topics of matroid theory having its origins graph theory. The Tutte Polynomial of the matroid play a role very important in various problems concerned with such invariants. In 1972 Brylawski showed that the Tutte Polynomial is a T-G invariant. In 1976, Greene established a relation among linear codes and the Tutte Polynomial showing that the distribuition of codeweigths in a linear codes is a generalized T-G invariant.
