Abstract

We present some results on almost maximum distance separable (AMDS) codes and Griesmer codes of dimension 4 over over the field of order 5. We prove that no AMDS code of length 13 and minimum distance 5 exists, and we give a classification of some AMDS codes. Moreover, we classify the projective strongly optimal Griesmer codes over F5 of dimension 4 for some values of the minimum distance.
