We study the structure of linear codes over the ring $B_k$ which is defined by $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}[v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_k]/\langle v_i^2=v_i,~v_iv_j=v_jv_i \rangle_{i,j=1}^k.$ In order to study the codes, we begin with studying the structure of…

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…

Let $f(u)$ be a polynomial of degree $m, m \geq 2,$ which splits into distinct linear factors over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. Let $\mathcal{R}=\mathbb{F}_{q}[u]/\langle f(u)\rangle$ be a finite non-chain ring. In an earlier paper, we…

In this work, connected cubic planar bipartite graphs and related binary self-dual codes are studied. Binary self-dual codes of length 16 are obtained by face-vertex incidence matrices of these graphs. By considering their lifts to the ring…

In this paper, we study $\mathbb{Z}_p\mathbb{Z}_p[u]$-additive codes, where $p$ is prime and $u^{2}=0$. In particular, we determine a Gray map from $ \mathbb{Z}_p\mathbb{Z}_p[u]$ to $\mathbb{Z}_p^{ \alpha+2 \beta}$ and study generator and…

Let q be a prime power and F_q be a finite field. In this paper, we study constacyclic codes over the ring F_q+ u F_q +v F_q+ u v F_q, where u^2=u, v^2=v and uv=vu. We characterized the generator polynomials of constacyclic codes and their…

In this paper we introduce self-dual cyclic and quantum codes over Z2^{\alpha} x (Z2 + uZ2)^{\beta}. We determine the conditions for any Z2Z2[u]-cyclic code to be self-dual, that is, C = C^{\perp}. Since the binary image of a…

We introduce an altered version of the four circulant construction over group rings for self-dual codes. We consider this construction over the binary field, the rings F_2 + uF_2 and F_4 + uF_4; using groups of order 3, 7, 9, 13, and 15.…

Self-dual codes are important because many of the best codes known are of this type and they have a rich mathematical theory. Topics covered in this survey include codes over F_2, F_3, F_4, F_q, Z_4, Z_m, shadow codes, weight enumerators,…

In this work, we define a modification of a bordered construction for self-dual codes which utilises $\lambda$-circulant matrices. We provide the necessary conditions for the construction to produce self-dual codes over finite commutative…

We consider codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^s}$ with the extended Lee weight. We find Singleton bounds with respect to this weight and define MLDS and MLDR codes accordingly. We also consider the kernels of these codes and the notion of…

In this paper, we study the codes over the matrix ring over $\mathbb{Z}_4$, which is perhaps the first time the ring structure $M_2(\mathbb{Z}_4)$ is considered as a code alphabet. This ring is isomorphic to…

We present some basic theory on the duality of codes over two non-unital rings of order $6$, namely $H_{23}$ and $H_{32}$. For a code $\mathcal{C}$ over these rings, we associate a binary code $\mathcal{C}_a$ and a ternary code…

Let $R=\mathbb{Z}_4+u\mathbb{Z}_4,$ where $\mathbb{Z}_4$ denotes the ring of integers modulo $4$ and $u^2=0$. In the present paper, we introduce a new Gray map from $R^n$ to $\mathbb{Z}_{4}^{2n}.$ We study $(1+2u)$-constacyclic codes over…

We first define a new Gray map from $R=\mathbb{Z}_4+u\mathbb{Z}_4$ to $\mathbb{Z}^{2}_{4}$, where $u^2=1$ and study $(1+2u)$-constacyclic codes over $R$. Also of interest are some properties of $(1+2u)$-constacyclic codes over $R$.…

In this paper, we construct self-dual codes from a construction that involves both block circulant matrices and block quadratic residue circulant matrices. We provide conditions when this construction can yield self-dual codes. We construct…

Let $f(u)$ and $g(v)$ be any two polynomials of degree $k$ and $\ell$ respectively ($k$ and $\ell$ are not both $1$), which split into distinct linear factors over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. Let $\mathcal{R}=\mathbb{F}_{q}[u,v]/\langle…

In this paper, we give conditions for the existence of Hermitian self-dual $\Theta-$cyclic and $\Theta-$negacyclic codes over the finite chain ring $\mathbb{F}_q+u\mathbb{F}_q$. By defining a Gray map from $R=\mathbb{F}_q+u\mathbb{F}_q$ to…

Cyclic codes over R have been introduced recently. In this paper, we study the cyclic codes over R and their $\Z_2$ image. Making use of algebraic structure, we find the some good $\Z_2$ codes of length 28.

In this paper, constructions of some double circulant self-dual codes by generalized cyclotomic classes of order two are presented. This technique is applied to [72, 36, 12] binary highest know self-dual codes to obtain self-dual codes over…
