In this paper we study a special type of quasi-cyclic (QC) codes called skew QC codes. This set of codes is constructed using a non-commutative ring called the skew polynomial rings $F[x;\theta ]$. After a brief description of the skew…
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…
For any prime number $p$, positive integers $m, k, n$ satisfying ${\rm gcd}(p,n)=1$ and $\lambda_0\in \mathbb{F}_{p^m}^\times$, we prove that any $\lambda_0^{p^k}$-constacyclic code of length $p^kn$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$…
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…
Let $p$ be a given modulus, let $u$ be prime to $p$, and consider the linear permutation $u\cdot n\pmod p$ of the residue system modulo $p$. Writing $\langle x\rangle_p$ to denote the least nonnegative residue of $x$ modulo $p$, we say that…

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…
It is well known that if $\mathbb{F}$ is a finite field then $\mathbb{F^{*}}$, the set of non zero elements of $\mathbb{F}$, is a cyclic group. In this paper we will assume $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{F}_{p}$ (the finite field with p elements, p a…
The invariant theory of finite groups can connect the coding theory to the number theory. In this paper, under this conformity, we obtain the minimal generators of the rings of E-polynomials constructed from the groups related to…
We introduce a Gray map from $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}+u\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}$ to $\mathbb{F}_{2}^{2m}$ and study $(1+u)$-constacyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}+u\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}},$ where $u^{2}=0.$ It is proved that the image of a…
We give the class of finite groups which arise as the permutation groups of cyclic codes over finite fields. Furthermore, we extend the results of Brand and Huffman et al. and we find the properties of the set of permutations by which two…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$, a prime power integer such that $q=et+1$ where $t\geq 1,e\geq 2$ are integers. In this paper, we study cyclic codes of length $n$ over a non-chain ring $R_{e,q}=\mathbb{F}_q[u]/\langle…
