Abstract

Let X be a complete simplicial toric variety over a finite field with a split torus TX. For any matrix Q, we are interested in the subgroup YQ of TX parameterized by the columns of Q. We give an algorithm for obtaining a basis for the unique lattice L whose lattice ideal IL is I(YQ). We also give two direct algorithmic methods to compute the order of YQ, which is the length of the corresponding code Cα,YQ. We share procedures implementing them in Macaulay2. Finally, we give a lower bound for the minimum distance of Cα,YQ, taking advantage of the parametric description of the subgroup YQ. As an application, we compute the main parameters of the toric codes on Hirzebruch surfaces H generalizing the corresponding result given by Hansen.
