The purpose of this article is to study polycyclic codes over the ring $\frac{\mathbb{F}_{p^m}[u]}{\langle u^t \rangle}, \,t \geq 1$, and their associated torsion codes. It is shown that if $\phi$ is a surjective ring homomorphism from a…
Cyclic, negacyclic and constacyclic codes are part of a larger class of codes called polycyclic codes; namely, those codes which can be viewed as ideals of a factor ring of a polynomial ring. The structure of the ambient ring of polycyclic…
