In particular, an MSCR (minimum storage cooperative regenerating) code retains the same storage overhead as an $(n,k)$ MDS code. Suppose each node stores $\\alpha$ symbols which indicates the sub-packetization level of the code. A scalar MSCR code attains the minimum sub-packetization, i.e., $\\alpha=d-k+t$. By now, all existing constructions of scalar MSCR codes restrict to very special parameters, eg. $d=k$ or $k=2$, etc. In a recent work, Ye and Barg const"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1810.04611","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
