The weak cylinder conjecture for polynomial graphs of bounded degree

Daniele Bartoli, Alessandro Giannoni

Ball's weak cylinder conjecture asserts that a set of $p^{2}$ points in $AG (3, p)$ with at least $p$ non-determined directions is a union of $p$ parallel lines. We prove the…

Maximum 2-scattered subspaces of $V (r, q^{6})$ for every $r \geq 3$

Daniele Bartoli, Francesco Ghiandoni, Alessandro Giannoni +2

We prove that for every prime power $q$ and every integer $r \geq 3$ there exists a maximum $2$ -scattered $F_{q}$ -subspace of $V (r, q^{6})$ , that is, a $2 r$ -dimensional $\mathbb…

F-sets of arbitrary finite width

Alessandro Giannoni

Ferraguti and Micheli conjectured that non-trivial $F$ -sets of every prescribed width exist over each finite field. We prove the finite-width part of their conjecture over $\mathbb…

A General Construction of Codes from Drinfeld Modules

Alessandro Giannoni, Giacomo Micheli, Mihran Papikian

We construct additive rank-metric and sum-rank-metric codes from Drinfeld modules by restricting bounded-degree morphisms to prime-to-characteristic torsion. For supersingular Drin…

The extremal gap for scattered $q$ -systems

Alessandro Giannoni

Two general estimates govern the rank of an $h$ -scattered $q$ -system: the scattered upper bound and the lower bound for systems maximal under inclusion. We determine exactly when t…

Thresholds for Tic-Tac-Toe on Finite Affine Spaces

Luca Bastioni, Alessandro Giannoni, Javier Lobillo-Olmedo

We introduce an affine version of Tic-Tac-Toe played on the finite affine space $F_{q}^{m}$ . Two players alternately claim points, and the first player to occupy all points of…

An infinite family of non-extendable MRD codes

Daniele Bartoli, Alessandro Giannoni, Giuseppe Marino +1

In the realm of rank-metric codes, Maximum Rank Distance (MRD) codes are optimal algebraic structures attaining the Singleton-like bound. A major open problem in this field is dete…

Generalizing a family of scattered quadrinomials in $F_{q^{2 t}} [X]$

Alessandro Giannoni, Giovanni Giuseppe Grimaldi, Giovanni Longobardi +1

In recent years, several efforts have focused on identifying new families of scattered polynomials. Currently, only three families in $F_{q^{n}} [X]$ are known to exist for i…

Long QMDS additive code

Daniele Bartoli, Alessandro Giannoni, Giuseppe Marino +1

We investigate additive codes, defined as $F_{q}$ -linear subspaces $C \subseteq F_{q^{h}}^{n}$ of length $n$ and dimension $r$ over $F_{q}$ . An additive code is…

Towards the classification of scattered binomials

Daniele Bartoli, Francesco Ghiandoni, Alessandro Giannoni +1

Let $ q $ be a prime power and $ n $ an integer. An $ \mathbb{F}_q $-linearized polynomial $ f $ is said to be scattered if it satisfies the condition that for all \( x, y…

A new infinite family of maximum $h$ -scattered $F_{q}$ -subspaces of $V (m (h + 1), q^{n})$ and associated MRD codes

Daniele Bartoli, Alessandro Giannoni, Giuseppe Marino

The exploration of linear subspaces, particularly scattered subspaces, has garnered considerable attention across diverse mathematical disciplines in recent years, notably within f…

A new family of $2$ -scattered subspaces and related MRD codes

Daniele Bartoli, Francesco Ghiandoni, Alessandro Giannoni +1

Scattered subspaces and $h$ -scattered subspaces have been extensively studied in recent decades for both theoretical purposes and their connections to various applications. While n…

New scattered subspaces in higher dimensions

D. Bartoli, A. Giannoni, G. Marino

Over the past few decades, there has been extensive research on scattered subspaces, partly because of their link to MRD codes. These subspaces can be characterized using linearize…

New scattered sequences of order 3

Daniele Bartoli, Alessandro Giannoni

Scattered sequences are a generalization of scattered polynomials. So far, only scattered sequences of order one and two have been constructed. In this paper an infinite family of…
