We address an open problem posed by Chen-Cheng-Qi (IEEE Trans.\ Inf.\ Theory, 2025): can the decoding of binary sum-rank-metric codes $\SR(C_1,C_2)$ with $2\times2$ matrix blocks be reduced entirely to decoding the constituent…
Combinatorial $t$-designs have been an interesting topic in combinatorics for decades. It is a basic fact that the codewords of a fixed weight in a code may hold a $t$-design. Till now only a small amount of work on constructing $t$-designs…
