Subfield subcodes of projective Reed-Muller codes
share
Explicit bases for the subfield subcodes of projective Reed-Muller codes over the projective plane and their duals are obtained. In particular, we provide a formula for the dimension of these codes. For the general case over the projective space, we are able to generalize the necessary tools to deal with this case as well: we obtain a universal Gröbner basis for the vanishing ideal of the set of standard representatives of the projective space and we are able to reduce any monomial with respect to this Gröbner basis. With respect to the parameters of these codes, by considering subfield subcodes of projective Reed-Muller codes we are able to obtain long linear codes with good parameters over a small finite field.
