Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field with $q=p^\lambda$ elements. Maximum Rank-metric codes (MRD for short) are subsets of $M_{m\times n}(\mathbb{F}_q)$ whose number of elements attains the Singleton-like bound. The first MRD codes…

Linearized Reed-Solomon (LRS) codes are sum-rank metric codes that fulfill the Singleton bound with equality. In the two extreme cases of the sum-rank metric, they coincide with Reed-Solomon codes (Hamming metric) and Gabidulin codes (rank…

Rank modulation has been recently proposed as a scheme for storing information in flash memories. While rank modulation has advantages in improving write speed and endurance, the current encoding approach is based on the "push to the top"…

Universal security over a network with linear network coding has been intensively studied. However, previous linear codes and code pairs used for this purpose were linear over a larger field than that used on the network, which restricts…

We propose a unified theory of generalized weights for linear codes endowed with an arbitrary distance. Instead of relying on supports or anticodes, the weights of a code are defined via the intersections of the code with a chosen family of…

We consider the local rank-modulation scheme in which a sliding window going over a sequence of real-valued variables induces a sequence of permutations. Local rank-modulation is a generalization of the rank-modulation scheme, which has…

We define almost affine vector rank-metric codes as subsets $\mathcal{C}\subseteq \mathbb{F}_{q^m}^n$ whose canonical projections have cardinalities that are powers of $q^m$, and prove that they naturally induce $q$-matroids. We establish…
