Maximal circular codes versus maximal codes
We answer to a question of De Luca and Restivo whether there exists a circular code which is maximal as circular code and not as code.

On a complete set of operations for factorizing codes
It is known that the class of factorizing codes, i.e., codes satisfying the factorization conjecture formulated by Schützenberger, is closed under two operations: the classical composition of codes and substitution of codes. A natural question which arises is whether a finite set of operations exists such that each factorizing code can be obtained by using the operations in and starting with prefix or suffix codes. is named here a complete set of operations (for factorizing codes). We show...

It is known that the class of factorizing codes, i.e., codes satisfying the factorization conjecture formulated by Schützenberger, is closed under two operations: the classical composition of codes and substitution of codes. A natural question which arises is whether a finite set O of operations exists such that each factorizing code can be obtained by using the operations in O and starting with prefix or suffix codes. O is named here a complete set of operations (for factorizing codes). We show...

On codes with finite interpreting delay: a defect theorem
We introduce two new classes of codes, namely adjacent codes and codes with finite interpreting delay. For each class, we establish an extension of the defect theorem.

On minimal redundancy codes.
A code X over the alphabet A is complete if the submonoid X* generated by X meets all two-sided ideals of A*. If one measures the cost of a finite code X over A, with respect to a given information source S, by the quantity gamma(X) = <X> ln |A|, we say that X is completely optimal for S if it does not exist any code X', over an arbitrary alphabet, such that gamma (X') < gamma (X). One can show that for |X| ≤ 5 a completely optimal code has to be complete. However for |X| >...

On the size of transducers for bidirectional decoding of prefix codes
In a previous paper [L. Giambruno and S. Mantaci, Theoret. Comput. Sci. 411 (2010) 1785–1792] a bideterministic transducer is defined for the bidirectional deciphering of words by the method introduced by Girod [IEEE Commun. Lett. 3 (1999) 245–247]. Such a method is defined using prefix codes. Moreover a coding method, inspired by the Girod’s one, is introduced, and a transducer that allows both right-to-left and left-to-right decoding by this method is defined. It is proved also that this transducer...
