A linear code is called an MDS self-dual code if it is both an MDS code and a self-dual code with respect to the Euclidean inner product. The parameters of such codes are completely determined by the code length. In this paper, we consider…

Let $R$ be an integral domain over a field $k$, and $G$ a subgroup of the automorphism group of the polynomial ring $R[x_1,..., x_n]$ over $R$. In this paper, we discuss when $G$ is diagonalizable under the assumption that $G$ is…
