In this paper, we study column twisted Reed-Solomon(TRS) codes. We establish some sufficient conditions for these codes to be MDS and show that the dimension of their Schur square codes is $2k$. Consequently, these TRS codes are shown to be…

We examine an error-correcting coding framework in which each coded symbol is constrained to be a function of a fixed subset of the message symbols. With an eye toward distributed storage applications, we seek to design systematic codes…

Extended Han-Zhang codes are a class of linear codes where each code is either a non-generalized Reed-Solomon (non-GRS) maximum distance separable (MDS) code or a near MDS (NMDS) code. They have important applications in communication,…
