In this article we construct a new family of semifields, containing and extending two well-known families, namely Albert's generalised twisted fields and Petit's cyclic semifields (also known as Johnson-Jha semifields). The construction…
Let $D$ be a division algebra, finite-dimensional over its center, and $R=D[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring. Using skew polynomials $f\in R$, we construct division algebras and a generalization of maximum rank distance codes…
We achieve new results on skew polynomial rings and their quotients, including the first explicit example of a skew polynomial ring where the ratio of the degree of a skew polynomial to the degree of its bound is not extremal. These methods…
This is a survey on the theory of skew-cyclic codes based on skew-polynomial rings of automorphism type. Skew-polynomial rings have been introduced and discussed by Ore (1933). Evaluation of skew polynomials and sets of (right) roots were…
In this thesis, we study the properties of a nonassociative algebra construction from skew polynomial rings. This construction was introduced by Petit in the 1960s but largely ignored until recently. In particular, the automorphism groups…
Different approaches to construct linear codes using skew polynomials can be unified by using the nonassociative algebras built from skew-polynomial rings by Petit.
In this paper, we study the arithmetics of skew polynomial rings over finite fields, mostly from an algorithmic point of view. We give various algorithms for fast multiplication, division and extended Euclidean division. We give a precise…
We study the automorphisms of Jha-Johnson semifields obtained from an invariant irreducible twisted polynomial $f\in K[t;\sigma]$, where $K=\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ is a finite field and $\sigma$ an automorphism of $K$ of order $n$, with a…
The projection construction has been used to construct semifields of odd characteristic using a field and a twisted semifield [Commutative semifields from projection mappings, Designs, Codes and Cryptography, 61 (2011), 187--196]. We…
In this paper we collect and improve the techniques for calculating the nuclei of a semifield and we use these tools to determine the order of the nuclei and of the center of some commutative presemifields of odd characteristic recently…
In this paper we study a special type of quasi-cyclic (QC) codes called skew QC codes. This set of codes is constructed using a non-commutative ring called the skew polynomial rings $F[x;\theta ]$. After a brief description of the skew…
Semifields are semirings in which every nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse. A rough classification uses the characteristic of the semifield, that is the isomorphism type of the semifield generated by the two neutral elements. For…
We generalize the notion of cyclic codes by using generator polynomials in (non commutative) skew polynomial rings. Since skew polynomial rings are left and right euclidean, the obtained codes share most properties of cyclic codes. Since…
Let $D$ be division algebra over its center $C$, let $\sigma$ be an endormorphism of $D$, let $\delta$ be a left $\sigma$-derivation of $D$, and let $R=D[t;\sigma,\delta]$ be a skew polynomial ring. We study the structure of a class of…
Simple constructions are given for finite semifields that include as special cases both old semifields and recently constructed semifields.
In this paper we introduce a model theoretic construction for the theories of uniform layered domains and semifields introduced in the paper of Izhakian, Knebusch and Rowen. We prove that, for a given layering semiring L, the theory of…
In this article, we present two new constructions for semifields of order $p^{2m}$. Together, the constructions unify and generalize around a dozen distinct semifield constructions, including both the oldest known construction by Dickson…
An associative division algebra D is said to be _affine_ over a central subfield k if D is finitely generated as a k-algebra. In 1956 Amitsur famously proved that, when k is uncountable, D cannot be k-affine unless D is algebraic over k. In…
A finite semifield is a finite nonassociative ring with identity such that the set of its nonzero elements is closed under the product. From any finite semifield a projective plane can be constructed. In this paper we obtain new semifield…
Abhyankar proved that every field of finite transcendence degree over $\mathbb{Q}$ or over a finite field is a homomorphic image of a subring of the ring of polynomials $\mathbb{Z}[T_1, \dots, T_n]$ (for some $n$ depending on the field). We…
