We study the relationship between a q-analogue of matroids and linear codes with the rank metric in the vector space of matrices with entries in a finite field. We prove a Greene type identity for the rank generating function of these…
This paper contributes to the study of rank-metric codes from an algebraic and combinatorial point of view. We introduce $q$-polymatroids, the $q$-analogue of polymatroids, and develop their basic properties. We associate a pair of…
It is well known that linear rank-metric codes give rise to q-polymatroids. Analogously to matroid theory one may ask whether a given q-polymatroid is representable by a rank-metric code. We provide an answer by presenting an example of a…
We compare the two duality theories of rank-metric codes proposed by Delsarte and Gabidulin, proving that the former generalizes the latter. We also give an elementary proof of MacWilliams identities for the general case of Delsarte…
In this paper, we investigate the rank-metric codes which are proposed by Delsarte and Gabidulin to be complementary dual codes. We point out the relationship between Delsarte complementary dual codes and Gabidulin complementary dual codes.…
By exploiting the connection between scattered $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^3$ and minimal non degenerate $3$-dimensional rank metric codes of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^{n}$, $n \geq m+2$, described in [2], we will exhibit a new…
We revisit and extend the connections between $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$-linear rank-metric codes and evasive $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^k$. We give a unifying framework in which we prove in an elementary way how the parameters…
A subspace of matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{q^e}^{m\times n}$ can be naturally embedded as a subspace of matrices in $\mathbb{F}_q^{em\times en}$ with the property that the rank of any of its matrix is a multiple of $e$. It is quite natural to…
A basic problem for the constant dimension subspace coding is to determine the maximal possible size A_q (n, d, k) of a set of k-dimensional subspaces in Fnq such that the subspace distance satisfies d(U, V )> or =d for any two different…
In this article, we study polymatroids that are representable by means of linear restricted rank-metric codes, namely, by subspaces of the space of alternating, symmetric, or Hermitian square matrices endowed with the rank metric. More…
In analogy with the Singleton defect for classical codes, we propose a definition of rank defect for Delsarte rank-metric codes. We characterize codes whose rank defect and dual rank defect are both zero, and prove that the rank…
It is well-known that the dimension of optimal anticodes in the rank-metric is divisible by the maximum m between the number of rows and columns of the matrices. Moreover, for a fixed k divisible by m, optimal rank-metric anticodes are the…
Let $\mathrm{Sym}_q(m)$ be the space of symmetric matrices in $\mathbb{F}_q^{m\times m}$. A subspace of $\mathrm{Sym}_q(m)$ equipped with the rank distance is called a symmetric rank-metric code. In this paper we study the covering…
We introduce a novel concept of rank for subsets of finite metric spaces E^n_q (the set of all n-dimensional vectors over an alphabet of size q) equipped with the Hamming distance, where the rank R(A) of a subset A is defined as the number…
We investigate the structure of intersecting error-correcting codes, with a particular focus on their connection to matroid theory. We establish properties and bounds for intersecting codes with the Hamming metric and illustrate how these…
The connection between secret sharing and matroid theory is well established. In this paper, we generalize the concepts of secret sharing and matroid ports to $q$-polymatroids. Specifically, we introduce the notion of an access structure on…
The correspondence between linear codes and representable matroids is well known. But a similar correspondence between quantum codes and matroids is not known. We show that representable symplectic matroids over a finite field…
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…
We consider the notion of a $(q,m)$-polymatroid, due to Shiromoto, and the more general notion of $(q,m)$-demi-polymatroid, and show how generalized weights can be defined for them. Further, we establish a duality for these weights…
In this paper, we develop a geometric framework for matrix rank-metric codes based on generator tensors and their slice spaces. To every nondegenerate matrix rank-metric code, we associate two systems, which translate metric properties of…
