In coding theory, a very interesting problem (but at the same time, a very difficult one) is to determine the weight distribution of a given code. This problem is even more interesting for cyclic codes, and this is so, mainly because they…

We construct an infinite family of two-Lee-weight and three-Lee-weight codes over the non-chain ring $\mathbb{F}_p+u\mathbb{F}_p+v\mathbb{F}_p+uv\mathbb{F}_p,$ where $u^2=0,v^2=0,uv=vu.$ These codes are defined as trace codes. They have the…
