Abstract

The classical problem of the existence of perfect codes is set in a vector space. In this paper it is shown that the natural setting for the problem is the class of distance-transitive graphs. A general theory is developed that leads to a simple criterion for the existence of a perfect code in a distance-transitive graph, and it is shown that this criterion implies Lloyd's theorem in the classical case.
