Additive cyclic codes over Galois rings were investigated in previous works. In this paper, we investigate the same problem but over a more general ring family, finite commutative chain rings. When we focus on non-Galois finite commutative…

In this paper, we introduce a construction of quantum convolutional codes (QCCs) based on difference triangle sets (DTSs). To construct QCCs, one must determine polynomial stabilizers $X(D)$ and $Z(D)$ that commute (symplectic…
``Quasi-elliptic'' functions can be given a ring structure in two different ways, using either ordinary multiplication, or convolution. The map between the corresponding standard bases is calculated. A related structure has appeared…

A primitive $k$-batch code encodes a string $x$ of length $n$ into string $y$ of length $N$, such that each multiset of $k$ symbols from $x$ has $k$ mutually disjoint recovering sets from $y$. We develop new explicit and random coding…

Decoding of convolutional codes poses a significant challenge for coding theory. Classical methods, based on e.g. Viterbi decoding, suffer from being computationally expensive and are restricted therefore to codes of small complexity. Based…
Multidimensional convolutional codes generalize (one dimensional) convolutional codes and they correspond under a natural duality to multidimensional systems widely studied in the systems literature.
In this paper, we give a matrix construction method for designing DNA codes that come from group matrix rings. We show that with our construction one can obtain reversible $G^k$-codes of length $kn,$ where $k, n \in \mathbb{N},$ over the…
We investigate the notion of cyclicity for convolutional codes as it has been introduced by Piret and Roos in the seventies. Codes of this type are described as submodules of the module of all vector polynomials in one variable with some…
Long before we learn to construct the field of rational numbers (out of the ring of integers) at university, we learn how to calculate with fractions at school. When it comes to "numbers", we are used to a commutative multiplication, for…
In this paper we present a concrete algebraic construction of a novel class of convolutional codes. These codes are built upon generalized Vandermonde matrices and therefore can be seen as a natural extension of Reed-Solomon block codes to…
The structure of multivariate semisimple codes over a finite chain ring $R$ is established using the structure of the residue field $\bar R$. Multivariate codes extend in a natural way the univariate cyclic and negacyclic codes and include…
