Higher Order MDS codes
* Monday 19 January 2026, 15:15, M3 / Zoom
Further information
A code is MDS if it achieves the Singleton bound with equality. A code is said to be MDS of order 'l', denoted as MDS(l), if any 'l' subspaces, each of which is obtained by picking columns of the generator matrix of the code, intersect as minimally as possible. Conventional MDS codes are MDS(2) codes. In this talk, we will formally define these codes and study their properties. Interestingly, higher order MDS codes have connections to two classes of codes arising in very different contexts - one class of codes in maximally recoverable codes with product topologies and the second is list decodable codes which are optimal with respect to generalized Singleton bound. We will delve into these connections too as part of this talk.
