Abstract:
In this paper, binary linear codes are used to construct the access structures of a secret sharing scheme. The relationship between the minimal codewords of a linear code and the minimal access structure are shown. Furthermore, we generalize the construction of secret sharing scheme by using semisimple group algebra codes. Finally, we study the access structures of a secret sharing scheme based on group algebra code defined by cyclic group of odd prime order over binary field.

Keywords: Secret sharing scheme, linear codes, group algebra codes
