Abstract

We construct maximally recoverable codes (corresponding to partial MDS codes) which are based on linearized Reed-Solomon codes. The new codes have a smaller field size requirement compared with known constructions. For certain asymptotic regimes, the constructed codes have order-optimal alphabet size, asymptotically matching the known lower bound.
