In this paper, we establish the Singleton bound for pomset block codes ($(Pm,\pi)$-codes) of length $N$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_m$. We give a necessary condition for a code to be MDS in the pomset (block) metric and prove that every MDS…

The singleton defect of an $[n,k,d]$ linear code ${\cal C}$ is defined as $s({\cal C})=n-k+1-d$. Codes with $S({\cal C})=0$ are called maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, and codes with $S(\cal C)=S(\cal C ^{\bot})=1$ are called near…
