We consider $(n,k,l)$ MDS codes of length $n$, dimension $k$, and subpacketization $l$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$. A codeword of such a code consists of $n$ column-vectors of length $l$ over $\mathbb{F}$, with the property that any…

A linear code is called an MDS self-dual code if it is both an MDS code and a self-dual code with respect to the Euclidean inner product. The parameters of such codes are completely determined by the code length. In this paper, we consider…

Reed--Solomon codes are a well--studied code class which fulfill the Singleton bound with equality. However, their length is limited to the size $q$ of the underlying field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper we present a code construction which…

Despite their exceptional error-correcting properties, Reed-Solomon codes have been overlooked in distributed storage applications due to the common belief that they have poor repair bandwidth: A naive repair approach would require the…

Like classical block codes, a locally repairable code also obeys the Singleton-type bound (we call a locally repairable code {\it optimal} if it achieves the Singleton-type bound). In the breakthrough work of \cite{TB14}, several classes of…

The hull of linear codes plays an important role in quantum information and coding theory. In the present paper, by investigating the Galois hulls of generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes and extended GRS codes over the finite field Fq, we…

Algebraic codes that achieve list decoding capacity were recently constructed by a careful ``folding'' of the Reed-Solomon code. The ``low-degree'' nature of this folding operation was crucial to the list decoding algorithm. We show how…

We study linear exact repair for $(n,k,\ell)$ MDS array codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$, with redundancy $r=n-k$, in the regime where $q$, $r$, and $\ell$ are fixed and the code length $n$ varies. A recent projective counting argument gives a…
