RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 On the ideal associated to a linear code A1 Márquez Corbella, Irene A1 Martínez Moro, Edgar A1 Suárez Canedo, Emilio K1 Gröbner bases K1 Bases de Gröbner K1 Graver bases K1 Bases de Graver K1 Linear codes K1 Códigos lineales AB This article aims to explore the bridge between the algebraic structure of a linear code and the complete decoding process. To this end, we associate a specific binomial ideal I+(C) to an arbitrary linear code. The binomialsinvolved in the reduced Gr¨obner basis of such an ideal relative to a degreecompatible ordering induce a uniquely defined test-set for the code, and thisallows the description of a Hamming metric decoding procedure. Moreover,the binomials involved in the Graver basis of I+(C) provide a universal test-setwhich turns out to be a set containing the set of codewords of minimal supportof the code.
