An‐ary‐radius sequence is a finite sequence of elements taken from an alphabet of sizein which any two distinct elements occur within distanceof each other somewhere in the sequence. The study of constructing short‐radius sequences was motivated by some problems occurring in large data transfer. Letbe the shortest length of any‐ary‐radius sequence. We show that the conjectureby Bondy et al is true for, and determine the exact values offor new infinitely many. Further, we investigate new sequences which we call‐difference, as they are related to‐radius sequences and seem to be interesting in themselves. Finally, we answer a question about the optimal length of packing and covering analogs of universal cycles proposed by Dębski et al.
