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…
In this paper, we construct a large family of projective linear codes over ${\mathbb F}_{q}$ from the general simplicial complexes of ${\mathbb F}_{q}^m$ via the defining-set construction, which generalizes the results of [IEEE Trans. Inf.…
A conjecture of Odoni stated over Hilbertian fields $K$ of characteristic zero asserts that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a polynomial $f\in K[x]$ of degree $d$ such that for every positive integer $n$, each iterate $f^{\circ…
The mds (maximum distance separable) conjecture claims that a nontrivial linear mds $[n,k]$ code over the finite field $GF(q)$ satisfies $n \leq (q + 1)$, except when $q$ is even and $k = 3$ or $k = q- 1$ in which case it satisfies $n \leq…
Linear codes with few weights have been an interesting subject of study for many years, as these codes have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, linear codes…
In this paper we study the (classical) Frobenius problem, namely the problem of finding the largest integer that cannot be represented as a nonnegative integral combination of given relatively prime (strictly) positive integers (known as…
Let f_1,...,f_r be homogeneous polynomials in K[x_1,...,x_n], K a field. Put F=y_1f_1+...+y_rf_r in K[x,y] and let I be the ideal of K[x,y] generated by the partials of F relative to the x_i and y_j. The Jacobian ring of F is the quotient…
A finite ring R and a weight w on R satisfy the Extension Property if every R-linear w-isometry between two R-linear codes in R^n extends to a monomial transformation of R^n that preserves w. MacWilliams proved that finite fields with the…
We demonstrate that the ring of invariants for the natural action of a subgroup G of GL_n(F_q) on a polynomial ring R=K[X_1,...,X_n] need not be F-pure. In these examples G is the symplectic group over a finite field, and the invariant…
The classical Frobenius problem is to compute the largest number g not representable as a non-negative integer linear combination of non-negative integers x_1, x_2, ..., x_k, where gcd(x_1, x_2, ..., x_k) = 1. In this paper we consider…
Let $F$ be a field and let $F^{r\times s}$ denote the space of $r\times s$ matrices over $F$. Given equinumerous subsets $\mathcal{A}=\{A_i\mid i \in I\}\subseteq F^{r\times r}$ and $\mathcal{B}=\{B_i\mid i\in I\}\subseteq F^{s\times s}$ we…
For any prime $p$, $\lambda$-constacyclic codes of length $p^s$ over ${\cal R}=\mathbb{F}_{p^m} + u\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$ are precisely the ideals of the local ring ${\cal R}_{\lambda}=\frac{{\cal R}[x]}{\left\langle x^{p^s}-\lambda…
Let r : G_Q -> GL_n Q_l be a motivic l-adic Galois representation. For fixed m > 1 we initiate an investigation of the density of the set of primes p such that the trace of the image of an arithmetic Frobenius at p under r is an m^th power…
We present new constructions of binary quantum codes from quaternary linear Hermitian self-dual codes. Our main ingredients for these constructions are nearly self-orthogonal cyclic or duadic codes over F_4. An infinite family of…
Let $i: A\to R$ be a ring morphism, and $\chi: R\to A$ a right $R$-linear map with $\chi(\chi(r)s)=\chi(rs)$ and $\chi(1_R)=1_A$. If $R$ is a Frobenius $A$-ring, then we can define a trace map $\tr: A\to A^R$. If there exists an element of…
There are exactly two non-commutative rings of size $4$, namely, $E = \langle a, b ~\vert ~ 2a = 2b = 0, a^2 = a, b^2 = b, ab= a, ba = b\rangle$ and its opposite ring $F$. These rings are non-unital. A subset $D$ of $E^m$ is defined with…
This article is devoted to the investigation of wrap groups of connected fiber bundles over the fields of real $\bf R$, complex $\bf C$ numbers, the quaternion skew field $\bf H$ and the octonion algebra $\bf O$. These groups are…
In this paper, we characterize the (generalized) Frobenius powers and critical exponents of two classes of monomial ideals of a polynomial ring in positive characteristic: powers of the homogeneous maximal ideal, and ideals generated by…
We develop an algebraic theory of supports for $R$-linear codes of fixed length, where $R$ is a finite commutative unitary ring. A support naturally induces a notion of generalized weights and allows one to associate a monomial ideal to a…
