Abstract

The structure of multivariate semisimple codes over a finite chain ring RR is established using the structure of the residue field Rˉ\bar R. Multivariate codes extend in a natural way the univariate cyclic and negacyclic codes and include some non-trivial codes over RR. The structure of the dual codes in the semisimple abelian case is also derived and some conditions on the existence of selfdual codes over RR are studied.
