The sum-rank metric can be seen as a generalization of both, the rank and the Hamming metric. It is well known that sum-rank metric codes outperform rank metric codes in terms of the required field size to construct maximum distance…

It is well-understood that different algorithms, training processes, and corpora produce different word embeddings. However, less is known about the relation between different embedding spaces, i.e. how far different sets of embeddings…
A code over a finite field is called locally recoverable code (LRC) if every coordinate symbol can be determined by a small number (at most r, this parameter is called locality) of other coordinate symbols. For a linear code with length n,…

Intersecting codes are a classical object in coding theory whose rank-metric analogue has recently been introduced. Although the definition formally parallels the Hamming-metric case, the structure and parameter constraints of rank-metric…

We propose a new class of space-time block codes based on finite-field rank-metric codes in combination with a rank-metric-preserving mapping to the set of Eisenstein integers. It is shown that these codes achieve maximum diversity order…
We examine an error-correcting coding framework in which each coded symbol is constrained to be a function of a fixed subset of the message symbols. With an eye toward distributed storage applications, we seek to design systematic codes…
Generalized Reed-Solomon codes form the most prominent class of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, codes that are optimal in the sense that their minimum distance cannot be improved for a given length and code size. The study of codes…
Let $A(n, d)$ denote the maximum size of a binary code of length $n$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$. Studying $A(n, d)$, including efforts to determine it as well to derive bounds on $A(n, d)$ for large $n$'s, is one of the most…
An $[n,k,d]$ linear code is said to be maximum distance separable (MDS) or almost maximum distance separable (AMDS) if $d=n-k+1$ or $d=n-k$, respectively. If a code and its dual code are both AMDS, then the code is said to be near maximum…
