Abstract

The rank over a finite field of the adjacency matrix of a directed strongly regular graph is studied, with some applications to the construction of linear codes. Three techniques are used: code orthogonality, adjacency matrix determinant, and adjacency matrix spectrum.

Keywords: adjacency matrix, directed graph, DSRG, error correcting code, SRG, strongly regular graph
