Abstract :
We determine the weight hierarchies of the product of an n-tuple space and an arbitrary code, the product of an m-dimensional even-weight code and the [24,12,8] extended Golay code, and the product of an m-dimensional even-weight code and the [8,4,4] extended Hamming code. The conjecture dr=d*r is proven for all three cases
