Since the introduction of tree codes by Schulman (STOC 1993), explicit construction of asymptotically good tree codes has remained a notorious challenge. A work by Cohen, Haeupler and Schulman (STOC 2018), as well as the state-of-the-art…

The GM-MDS theorem, conjectured by Dau-Song-Dong-Yuen and proved by Lovett and Yildiz-Hassibi, shows that the generator matrices of Reed-Solomon codes can attain every possible configuration of zeros for an MDS code. The recently emerging…

We construct a family of linear maximally recoverable codes with locality $r$ and dimension $r+1.$ For codes of length $n$ with $r\approx n^\alpha, 0\le\alpha\le 1$ the code alphabet is of the order $n^{1+3\alpha},$ which improves upon the…

We show that the free distance, as a function on a space parameterizing a family of convolutional codes, is a lower-semicontinuous function and that, therefore, the property of being Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) is an open condition.…

We investigate two classes of extended codes and provide necessary and sufficient conditions for these codes to be non-GRS MDS codes. We also determine the parity check matrices for these codes. Using the connection of MDS codes with arcs…

In this paper, we first consider the iterated skew polynomial ring $\mathscr{R}[z_1;\tau_1,\delta_{\tau_1}]$\\$[z_2;\tau_2,\delta_{\tau_2}]$, where $\mathscr{R}$ is a finite ring with unity. Then we use this structure for the construction…

We study $q$-ary codes with distance defined by a partial order of the coordinates of the codewords. Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) codes in the poset metric have been studied in a number of earlier works. We consider codes that are close…
