We introduce the class of partition-balanced families of codes, and show how to exploit their combinatorial invariants to obtain upper and lower bounds on the number of codes that have a prescribed property. In particular, we derive precise…
In this paper we study equidistant subspace codes, i.e. subspace codes with the property that each two distinct codewords have the same distance. We provide an almost complete classification of such codes under the assumption that the…
We extend the existing skew polynomial representations of matrix algebras which are direct sum of matrix spaces over division rings. In this representation, the sum-rank distance between two tuples of matrices is captured by a weight…

We show that the sequence of dimensions of the linear spaces, generated by a given rank-metric code together with itself under several applications of a field automorphism, is an invariant for the whole equivalence class of the code. The…
Over fields of characteristic unequal to $2$, we can identify symmetric matrices with homogeneous polynomials of degree $2$. This allows us to view symmetric rank-metric codes as living inside the space of such polynomials. In this paper,…
Subspace codes and rank-metric codes can be used to correct errors and erasures in network, with linear network coding. Subspace codes were introduced by Koetter and Kschischang to correct errors and erasures in networks where topology is…
In this paper, we introduce codes equipped with pomset block metric. A Singleton type bound for pomset block codes is obtained. Code achieving the Singleton bound, called a maximum distance separable code (for short, MDS…
One of the most animated themes of multidimensional persistence is the comparison between invariants. The matching distance between persistent Betti numbers functions (or rank invariants), is among the most studied metrics in this context,…
Both maximum distance separable (MDS) codes that are not equivalent to generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes (non-GRS MDS codes) and near MDS (NMDS) codes have nice applications in communication and storage systems. In this paper, we…
Guruswami and Xing introduced subspace designs in 2013 to give the first construction of positive rate rank metric codes list-decodable beyond half the distance. In this paper we provide bounds involving the parameters of a subspace design,…
We study linear codes that maximize minimum distance subject to arbitrary support constraints on the parity-check matrix. Such constraints arise naturally in the design of LDPC codes, locally repairable codes, and hardware-constrained…
Superregular matrices are a class of lower triangular Toeplitz matrices that arise in the context of constructing convolutional codes having a maximum distance profile. These matrices are characterized by the property that no submatrix has…
A locally repairable code is called Singleton-optimal if it achieves the Singleton-type bound. Such codes are of great theoretic interest in the study of locally repairable codes. In the recent years there has been a great amount of work on…

Maximum distance separable (MDS) are constructed to required specifications. The codes are explicitly given over finite fields with efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. Series of such codes over finite fields with ratio of distance…
