The theta cycle of a modular form modulo a prime $p\geq 5$ is well understood. By contrast, the theta cycle modulo a power of $p$ is still mysterious and experimentally erratic. Here we completely determine the theta cycle of a weight $k <…

We study the structure of linear codes over the ring $B_k$ which is defined by $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}[v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_k]/\langle v_i^2=v_i,~v_iv_j=v_jv_i \rangle_{i,j=1}^k.$ In order to study the codes, we begin with studying the structure of…

Cyclic codes have attracted a lot of research interest for decades as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, for an odd prime $p$, the weight distributions of two classes of $p$-ary cyclic codes are completely…

A lot of attention has been paid to the investigation of the algebraic properties of linear codes. In most cases, this investigation involves the determination of required code automorphisms, which are useful for decoders, such as the…

Cyclic codes, as linear block error-correcting codes in coding theory, play a vital role and have wide applications. Ding in \cite{D} constructed a number of classes of cyclic codes from almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions and planar…

Let $p$ be a prime. We discuss $p$-adic properties of various arithmetical functions related to the coefficients of modular form and generating functions. Modular forms are considered as a tool of solving arithmetical problems. Examples of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $m$ be a positive integer satisfying $p^m \equiv 3~(\text{mod }4).$ Let $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$ be the finite field with $p^m$ elements, and let $R=\mathbb{F}_{p^m}[u]/\left<u^2\right>$ be the finite commutative…

In this paper, we study convolutional codes with a specific cyclic structure. By definition, these codes are left ideals in a certain skew polynomial ring. Using that the skew polynomial ring is isomorphic to a matrix ring we can describe…

Multi-dimensional cyclic code is a natural generalization of cyclic code. In an earlier paper we explored two-dimensional constacyclic codes over finite fields. Following the same technique, here we characterize the algebraic structure of…

Using the Polya Enumeration Theorem, we count with particular attention to C^3/Gamma up to C^6/Gamma, abelian orbifolds in various dimensions which are invariant under cycles of the permutation group S_D. This produces a collection of…

Quasi-cyclic (QC) codes form an important generalization of cyclic codes. It is well know that QC codes of length $s\ell$ with index $s$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}$ are $\mathbb{F}[y]$-submodules of the ring $\frac{\mathbb{F}[x,y]}{<…

For any positive integer $n$ and variables $a$ and $x$ we define the generalized Legendre polynomial $P_n(a,x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\b ak\b{-1-a}k(\frac{1-x}2)^k$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In the paper we prove many congruences modulo $p^2$ related…

We construct positional numeral systems that work natively over nonderived polyadic $\left( m,n\right) $-rings whose addition takes $m$ arguments and multiplication takes $n$. In such rings, the length of an admissible additive word and a…
