Abstract

In this article, We introduce a condition that is both necessary and sufficient for a linear code to achieve minimality when analyzed over the rings Zn\mathbb{Z}_{n}.The fundamental inquiry in minimal linear codes is the existence of a [m,k][m,k] minimal linear code where kk is less than or equal to mm. W. Lu et al. ( see \cite{nine}) showed that there exists a positive integer m(k;q)m(k;q) such that for mm(k;q)m\geq m(k;q) a minimal linear code of length mm and dimension kk over a finite field Fq\mathbb{F}_q must exist. They give the upper and lower bound of m(k;q)m(k;q). In this manuscript, we establish both an upper and lower bound for m(k;pl)m(k;p^l) and m(k;p1p2)m(k;p_1p_2) within the ring Zpl\mathbb{Z}_{p^l} and Zp1p2\mathbb{Z}_{p_1p_2} respectively.
