We discuss the structure of negacyclic codes of odd length over the ring $\mathbb{F}_p[u, v]/ \langle u^2, v^2, uv-vu \rangle$. We find the unique generating set, the rank and the minimum distance for these negacyclic codes.

For any positive integers $m$ and $k$, existing literature only determines the number of all Euclidean self-dual cyclic codes of length $2^k$ over the Galois ring ${\rm GR}(4,m)$, such as in [Des. Codes Cryptogr. (2012) 63:105--112]. Using…
