A covering code is a set of codewords with the property that the union of balls, suitably defined, around these codewords covers an entire space. Generally, the goal is to find the covering code with the minimum size codebook. While most…

We derive simplified sphere-packing and Gilbert--Varshamov bounds for codes in the sum-rank metric, which can be computed more efficiently than previous ones. They give rise to asymptotic bounds that cover the asymptotic setting that has…

We study properties of rank metric and codes in rank metric over finite fields. We show that in rank metric perfect codes do not exist. We derive an existence bound that is the equivalent of the Gilbert--Varshamov bound in Hamming metric.…
