A note on the construction of optimal linear codes

Let us denote by (n,k,d)-code, a binary linear code with code length nk information symbols and the minimum distance d. It is well known that the problem of obtaining a binary linear code whose code length n is minimum among (n,k,d)-codes for given integers k and d, is equivalent to solve a linear programming whose solutions correspond to a minimum redundancy error-correcting code. In this paper it will be shown that for some given integers d, there exists no solution of the linear programming except a solution which is obtained using a flat in a finite projective geometry.
