A binary linear code $C$ is a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-double cyclic code if the set of coordinates can be partitioned into two subsets such that any cyclic shift of the coordinates of both subsets leaves invariant the code. These codes can be…

For each r, 0 <= r <= m, it is presented the class of quaternary linear codes LRM(r,m) whose images under the Gray map are binary codes with parameters of Reed-Muller RM(r,m) code of order r.
Linear complementary dual (LCD) codes over finite fields are linear codes satisfying $C\cap C^{\perp}=\{0\}$. We generalize the LCD codes over finite fields to $\mathbb{Z}_2\mathbb{Z}_2[u]$-LCD codes over the ring…
Upper bounds on the minimum Lee distance of codes that are linear over ${\mathbb Z}_q$, $q=p^t$, $p$ prime are discussed. The bounds are Singleton like, depending on the length, rank, and alphabet size of the code. Codes meeting such bounds…

We investigate perfect codes in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ under the $\ell_p$ metric. Upper bounds for the packing radius $r$ of a linear perfect code, in terms of the metric parameter $p$ and the dimension $n$ are derived. For $p = 2$ and $n = 2, 3$,…
The rings $Z_{4}+\nu Z_{4}$ have been classified into chain rings and non-chain rings on the basis of the values of $\nu^{2} \in Z_{4}+\nu Z_{4}.$ In this paper, the structure of cyclic codes of arbitrary length over the rings $Z_{4}+\nu…
In this paper, we study the unit graph $ G(\mathbb{Z}_n) $, where $ n $ is of the form $n = p_1^{n_1} p_2^{n_2} \dots p_r^{n_r}$, with $ p_1, p_2, \dots, p_r $ being distinct prime numbers and $ n_1, n_2, \dots, n_r $ being positive…
In this paper, we study one-Lee weight and two-Lee weight codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{2}\mathbb{Z}_{2}[u]$, where $u^{2}=0$. Some properties of one-Lee weight $\mathbb{Z}_{2}\mathbb{Z}_{2}[u]$-additive codes are given, and a complete…

We propose an innovative approach to investigating the linearity of $\mathbb{Z}_{2^L}$-linear codes derived from $\mathbb{Z}_{2^L}$-additive codes using the generalized Gray map. To achieve this, we define two related binary codes: the…
In this paper, we introduce a new definitions of the Gray weight and the Gray map for linear codes over $\mathbb{Z}_9+u\mathbb{Z}_9$ with $u^2=u$. Some results on self-dual codes over this ring are investigated. Further, the structural…
Inspired by the Z2Z4-additive codes, linear codes over Z2^r x(Z2+uZ2)^s have been introduced by Aydogdu et al. more recently. Although these family of codes are similar to each other, linear codes over Z2^r x(Z2+uZ2)^s have some advantages…
We present the theory of linear rank-metric codes from the point of view of their fundamental parameters. These are: the minimum rank distance, the rank distribution, the maximum rank, the covering radius, and the field size. The focus of…
In this paper we study two dimensional minimal linear code over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p^n}$(where $p$ is prime). We show that if the generator matrix $G$ of the two dimensional linear code $M$ contains $p^n+p^{n-1}$ column vector of the…

Zipper codes are a framework for describing spatially-coupled product-like codes. Many well-known codes, such as staircase codes and braided block codes, are subsumed into this framework. New types of codes such as tiled diagonal and…
