How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T19532116 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Target entity: Plotkin bound Context triple: [Hamming bound, comparedWith, Plotkin bound]
-
A.
Hamming bound
The Hamming bound is a fundamental limit in coding theory that specifies the maximum number of codewords a block code can have for a given length and minimum distance while still allowing reliable error detection and correction.
-
B.
Accola–Maclachlan bound
The Accola–Maclachlan bound is a refinement in algebraic geometry that gives an improved upper limit on the size of the automorphism group of a compact Riemann surface (or algebraic curve), sharpening the classical Hurwitz bound in certain cases.
-
C.
Graham–Pollak theorem
The Graham–Pollak theorem is a result in graph theory that states the edges of a complete graph on n vertices cannot be partitioned into fewer than n−1 complete bipartite subgraphs.
-
D.
Golay code
The Golay code is a highly symmetric, perfect error-correcting code in coding theory, notable for its deep connections to sporadic simple groups, sphere packings, and the Leech lattice.
-
E.
Hoffman bound in graph theory
The Hoffman bound in graph theory is a spectral bound that uses the eigenvalues of a graph’s adjacency matrix to give an upper limit on the size of its maximum independent set (and related parameters like the chromatic number).
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
