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…
We consider two-dimensional $(\lambda_1, \lambda_2)$-constacyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of area $M N$, where $q$ is some power of prime $p$ with $\gcd(M,p)=1$ and $\gcd(N,p)=1$. With the help of common zero (CZ) set, we characterize…
Symbol-pair codes introduced by Cassuto and Blaum (2010) are designed to protect against pair errors in symbol-pair read channels. The higher the minimum pair distance, the more pair errors the code can correct. MDS symbol-pair codes are…
Let $R$ be a finite commutative chain ring, $D_{2n}$ be the dihedral group of size $2n$ and $R[D_{2n}]$ be the dihedral group ring. In this paper, we completely characterize left ideals of $R[D_{2n}]$ (called left $D_{2n}$-codes) when ${\rm…
The use of skew polynomial rings allows to endow linear codes with cyclic structures which are not cyclic in the classical (commutative) sense. Whenever these skew cyclic structures are carefully chosen, some control over the Hamming…
Let $R$ be the finite chain ring $\mathbb{F}_{p^{2m}}+{u}\mathbb{F}_{p^{2m}}$, where $\mathbb{F}_{p^{2m}}$ is the finite field with $p^{2m}$ elements, $p$ is a prime, $m$ is a non-negative integer and ${u}^{2}=0.$ In this paper, we firstly…
In this paper, we study constacyclic codes over $F_p+vF_p$, where $p$ is an odd prime and $v^2=v$. The polynomial generators of all constacyclic codes over $F_p+vF_p$ are characterized and their dual codes are also determined.
In this paper, we discuss DNA codes that are cyclic or quasi-cyclic over $\Z_{4}+\omega \Z_{4}$, where $\omega^{2}=2+2\omega$ along with methods to construct these with combinatorial constraints. We also generalize results obtained for the…
We consider linear codes over a finite field of odd characteristic, derived from determinantal varieties, obtained from symmetric matrices of bounded ranks. A formula for the weight of a code word is derived. Using this formula, we have…
Cyclicity of a convolutional code (CC) is relying on a nontrivial automorphism of the algebra F[x]/(x^n-1), where F is a finite field. If this automorphism itself has certain specific cyclicity properties one is lead to the class of…
In this paper, we study cyclic codes over the Galois ring ${\rm GR}({p^2},s)$. The main result is the characterization and enumeration of Hermitian self-dual cyclic codes of length $p^a$ over ${\rm GR}({p^2},s)$. Combining with some known…
We investigate the typical cycle lengths, the total number of cycles, and the number of finite cycles in random permutations whose probability involves cycle weights. Typical cycle lengths and total number of cycles depend strongly on the…
The aim of this paper is to determine the algebraic structure of multidimensional cyclic codes over a finite chain ring $\mathfrak{R}$. An algorithm to find the generator polynomials of $n$ dimensional ($n$D) cyclic codes of length…
Additive cyclic codes over Galois rings were investigated in previous works. In this paper, we investigate the same problem but over a more general ring family, finite commutative chain rings. When we focus on non-Galois finite commutative…
Constant dimension codes are subsets of the finite Grassmann variety. The study of these codes is a central topic in random linear network coding theory. Orbit codes represent a subclass of constant dimension codes. They are defined as…
This paper establishes a novel upper bound-termed the arithmetic Singleton bound-on the Hamming distance of any simple-root constacyclic code over a finite field. The key technical ingredient is the notion of multiple equal-difference (MED)…

In this paper a framework to study the dual of skew cyclic codes is proposed. The transposed Hamming ring extensions are based in the existence of an anti-isomorphism of algebras between skew polynomial rings. Our construction is applied to…
