Proposition ((Trivial spread bound) [HK17a, Proposition 1]) For 0 k < v, the bound in Johnson I is applicable iff d = 2 min{k, v k} and k 1.

16 Revisited linkage construction Theorem ([GLT16, Theorem 2.3], cf. [ST15, Corollary 39]) Let C i be a (v i, N i, d i ; k) q constant dimension code for i = 1, 2 and let C r be a (k v 2, N r, d r ) q linear rank metric code. Then {τ 1 (τ(u) M) : U C 1, M C r } {τ 1 (0 k v1 τ(w )) : W C 2 } is a (v 1 + v 2, N 1 N R + N 2, min{d 1, d 2, 2d r }; k) q constant dimension code. Theorem ([HK17a, Theorem 19]) Let C i be a (v i, N i, d i ; k) q constant dimension code for i = 1, 2, d 2N 0 and let C r be a (k (v 2 k + d/2), N r, d r ) q linear rank metric code.
