A minimal code is a linear code where the only instance that a codeword has its support contained in the support of another codeword is when the codewords are scalar multiples of each other. Ashikhmin and Barg gave a sufficient condition…

A linear code of length $n$ over a finite chain ring $R$ with residue field $\F_q$ is a $R$-submodule of $R^n$. A $R$-linear code is a code over $\F_q$ (not necessarily linear) which is the generalized Gray map image of a linear code over…
