This paper considers the construction of isodual quasi-cyclic codes. First we prove that two quasi-cyclic codes are permutation equivalent if and only if their constituent codes are equivalent. This gives conditions on the existence of…
Let $p$ be a prime number. Irreducible cyclic codes of length $p^2-1$ and dimension $2$ over the integers modulo $p^h$ are shown to have exactly two nonzero Hamming weights. The construction uses the Galois ring of characteristic $p^h$ and…
We study additive quaternary codes whose parameters are close to those of the extended cyclic [12; 6; 6]4-code or to the quaternary linear codes generated by the elliptic quadric in PG(3; 4) or its dual. In particular we characterize those…
A class of optimal three-weight cyclic codes of dimension 3 over any finite field was presented by Vega [Finite Fields Appl., 42 (2016) 23-38]. Shortly thereafter, Heng and Yue [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 62(8) (2016) 4501-4513] generalized…
We define a new congruence relation on the set of integers, leading to a group similar to the multiplicative group of integers modulo $n$. It makes use of a symmetry almost omnipresent in modular multiplications and halves the number of…
In this paper, we propose a sufficient condition for a family of 2-generator self-orthogonal quasi-cyclic codes with respect to Hermitian inner product. Supported in the Hermitian construction, we show algebraic constructions of good…
This paper is continuation of the paper "Primitive roots in quadratic field". We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for algebraic numbers which is not a unit in real quadratic fields. Given such an algebraic number,…
This article begins with an exploration of nonlinear codes ($\mathbb{F}_q$-linear subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^n$) which are generalizations of the familiar Reed-Solomon codes. This then leads to a wider exploration of nonlinear analogues…
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…
The results of J. F. Qiann et al. [4] on $(1-\gamma)$-cyclic codes over finite chain rings of nilpotency index 2 are extended to $(1-\gamma^e)$-cyclic codes over finite chain rings of arbitrary nilpotency index $e+1$. The Gray map is…
Based on cyclic and consta-cyclic simplex codes, a new explicit construction of a family of two-weight codes is presented. These two-weight codes obtained are in the form of 2-generator quasi-cyclic, or quasi-twisted structure. Based on…
This paper contributes to construct double circulant self-dual codes by sextic cyclotomy. Generator matrixes of a family of pure double circulant codes and a family of double circulant codes with boundary are formed from sextic cyclotomic…
We present a family of reducible cyclic codes constructed as the direct sum of two different semiprimitive two-weight irreducible cyclic codes. This family generalizes the class of reducible cyclic codes that was reported in the main result…
We consider codes over the two semi-local non-unital rings of order six, \[ H_{23} = \langle a,b \mid 2a=0, 3b = 0, a^2=a, b^2 = 0, ab = 0 = ba \rangle,\] and \[H_{32} = \langle a,b \mid 2a=0, 3b = 0, a^2=0, b^2 = b, ab = 0 = ba \rangle. \]…
We examine two counting problems that seem very group-theoretic on the surface but, on closer examination, turn out to concern integers with restrictions on their prime factors. First, given an odd prime $q$ and a finite abelian $q$-group…
Like classical block codes, a locally repairable code also obeys the Singleton-type bound (we call a locally repairable code {\it optimal} if it achieves the Singleton-type bound). In the breakthrough work of \cite{TB14}, several classes of…
Let $R$ be a finite commutative chain ring with unique maximal ideal $\langle \gamma\rangle$, and let $n$ be a positive integer coprime with the characteristic of $R/\langle \gamma\rangle$. In this paper, the algebraic structure of cyclic…
Families of "asymptotically regular" LDPC block code ensembles can be formed by terminating (J,K)-regular protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes. By varying the termination length, we obtain a large selection of LDPC block code ensembles…
Cyclic codes are an interesting subclass of linear codes and have been used in consumer electronics, data transmission technologies, broadcast systems, and computer applications due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In…
Cyclic codes have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms over finite fields, so that they have practical applications in communication systems, consumer electronics and data storage systems. The objective of this paper is to give eight…
