Characterization of MDS mappings

S. M. Dehnavi and A. Mahmoodi Rishakani and M. R. Mirzaee Shamsabad

Abstract: MDS codes and matrices are closely related to combinatorial objects like orthogonal arrays and multipermutations. Conventional MDS codes and matrices were defined on finite fields, but several generalizations of this concept has been done up to now. In this note, we give a criterion for verifying whether a map is MDS or not.
