This work deals with Hadamard Z2Z4Q8-codes, which are binary codes after a Gray map from a subgroup of the direct product of Z2, Z4 and Q8 groups, where Q8 is the quaternionic group. In a previous work, these kind of codes were classified…

For every $n = 2^k > 8$ there exist exactly $[(k+1)/2]$ mutually nonequivalent $Z_4$-linear extended perfect codes with distance 4. All these codes have different ranks.
Linear codes are considered over the ring Z_4+uZ_4, a non-chain extension of Z_4. Lee weights, Gray maps for these codes are defined and MacWilliams identities for the complete, symmetrized and Lee weight enumerators are proved. Two…
The rings $Z_{4}+\nu Z_{4}$ have been classified into chain rings and non-chain rings on the basis of the values of $\nu^{2} \in Z_{4}+\nu Z_{4}.$ In this paper, the structure of cyclic codes of arbitrary length over the rings $Z_{4}+\nu…
In this paper, we determine the dimensions of the residue codes of extremal Type II Z4-codes for lengths 32 and 40. We demonstrate that every binary doubly even self-dual code of length 32 can be realized as the residue code of some…
For each r, 0 <= r <= m, it is presented the class of quaternary linear codes LRM(r,m) whose images under the Gray map are binary codes with parameters of Reed-Muller RM(r,m) code of order r.
In this paper, we study a relative two-weight $\mathbb{Z}_2 \mathbb{Z}_4$-additive codes. It is shown that the Gray image of a two-distance $\mathbb{Z}_2 \mathbb{Z}_4$-additive code is a binary two-distance code and that the Gray image of a…

A Z2Z4Q8-code is a non-empty subgroup of a direct product of copies of Z_2, Z_4 and Q_8 (the binary field, the ring of integers modulo 4 and the quaternion group on eight elements, respectively). Such Z2Z4Q8-codes are translation invariant…
Given two binary codes of length n, using Plotkin construction we obtain a code of length 2n. The construction works for linear and nonlinear codes. For the linear case, it is straightforward to see that the dimension of the final code is…
