We study codes with a single check element derived from group rings, namely, checkable codes. The notion of a code-checkable group ring is introduced. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a group ring to be code-checkable are given in…
The construction of self-dual codes over small fields such that their minimum distances are as large as possible is a long-standing challenging problem in the coding theory. In 2009, a family of binary self-dual cyclic codes with lengths…
Given a finite extension $K/F$ of degree $r$ of a finite field $F$, we enumerate all selfdual skew cyclic codes in the Ore quotient ring $K[X;\text{Frob}]/(X^{rk}-1)$ for any positive integer $k$ coprime to the characteristic $p$ (separable…
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 article, we study the algebraic structure of double cyclic codes of length $(m, n)$ over $\mathbb{F}_4$ and we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a double cyclic code over $\mathbb{F}_4$ to be reversible. Also, we…
A lot of attention has been paid to the investigation of the algebraic properties of linear codes. In most cases, this investigation involves the determination of required code automorphisms, which are useful for decoders, such as the…
A code $C$ is called $\Z_p\Z_{p^2}$-linear if it is the Gray image of a $\Z_p\Z_{p^2}$-additive code, where $p>2$ is prime. In this paper, the rank and the dimension of the kernel of $\Z_p\Z_{p^2}$-linear codes are studied. Two bounds of…
Four circulant codes form a special class of $2$-generator, index $4$, quasi-cyclic codes. Under some conditions on their generator matrices they can be shown to be self-dual. Artin primitive root conjecture shows the existence of an…
In this work, four circulant and quadratic double circulant (QDC) constructions are applied to the family of the rings R_k,m. Self-dual binary codes are obtained as the Gray images of self-dual QDC codes over R_k,m. Extremal binary…
Locally recoverable (LRC) codes and their variants have been extensively studied in recent years. In this paper we focus on cyclic constructions of LRC codes and derive conditions on the zeros of the code that support the property of…
Linear codes are considered over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_4+v\mathbb{Z}_4$, where $v^2=v$. Gray weight, Gray maps for linear codes are defined and MacWilliams identity for the Gray weight enumerator is given. Self-dual codes, construction of…
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 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…
The main objective of this paper is to extend the previously defined code family over the ring $\mathfrak{R}=\sum\limits_{s=0}^{4} v_{5}^{s} \mathcal{A}_{4}$ to $\mathfrak{R}^{s,m}=\sum\limits_{\varsigma=1}^{m}…
Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems, and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, a class of three-weight…
Generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes form a natural generalization of quasi-cyclic (QC) codes. They are viewed here as mixed alphabet codes over a family of ring alphabets. Decomposing these rings into local rings by the Chinese Remainder…
We classify the (finite and infinite) virtually cyclic subgroups of the pure braid groups $P_{n}(RP^2)$ of the projective plane. The maximal finite subgroups of $P_{n}(RP^2)$ are isomorphic to the quaternion group of order 8 if $n=3$, and…
A Z2Z4-additive code C subset of Z_2^alpha x Z_4^beta is called cyclic if the set of coordinates can be partitioned into two subsets, the set of Z_2 and the set of Z_4 coordinates, such that any cyclic shift of the coordinates of both…
We describe and present a new construction method for codes using encodings from group rings. They consist primarily of two types: zero-divisor and unit-derived codes. Previous codes from group rings focused on ideals; for example cyclic…
