摘要
The concept of pure gaps of a Weierstrass semigroup at several points of an algebraic curve has been used lately to obtain codes that have a lower bound for the minimum distance which is greater than the Goppa bound. In this work, we show that the existence of total inflection points on a smooth plane curve determines the existence of pure gaps in certain Weierstrass semigroups. We then apply our results to the Hermitian curve and construct codes supported on several points that compare better to one-point codes from that same curve.
