First, just for clarity about the question, the Reifegerste preprint dates from September 2003, her paper was published in 2004, and Jacob Post's thesis is from 2009. But the theorem is easy to show f …

How to cover a set in a grid with as few rectangles as possible?

The question is not clear to me, nor is your guess. Take $r=\frac12$, $\epsilon=\frac14$ and $S$ the checkerboard subset of the square. I can't see how you could do with less than a rectangle for ever …

Algorithm for vector space

Thinking of your vectors as (column) bitvectors, here is a concrete description of how you can proceed, using (non-reduced) column-echelon form for a basis of $\langle e_1,\ldots,e_n\rangle$. Separate …
