An MDS matrix is a matrix representing a function with certain diffusion properties that have useful applications in cryptography. Technically, an matrix over a finite field is an MDS matrix if it is the transformation matrix of a linear transformation from to such that no two different -tuples of the form coincide in or more components. Equivalently, the set of all -tuples is an MDS code, i.e., a linear code that reaches the Singleton bound.
