One of the main goals of coding theory is to construct codes with best possible parameters and properties. A special class of codes called quasi-twisted (QT) codes is well-known to produce codes with good parameters. Most of the work on QT…

In this paper, we investigate the algebraic structure for polycyclic codes over a specific class of serial rings, defined as $\mathscr R=R[x_1,\ldots, x_s]/\langle t_1(x_1),\ldots, t_s(x_s) \rangle$, where $R$ is a chain ring and each…
