It is well known that the problem of determining the weight distributions of families of cyclic codes is, in general, notoriously difficult. An even harder problem is to find characterizations of families of cyclic codes in terms of their…

Let $R^t$ denote the finite chain ring $\frac{\mathbb{F}_{p^m}[u]}{\langle u^t \rangle},$ where $p$ is a prime and $t$ is a positive integer. In this article, for a prime $p$ and an automorphism $\theta$ of $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$, we give the…
We design a non-commutative version of the Peterson-Gorenstein-Zierler decoding algorithm for a class of codes that we call skew RS codes. These codes are left ideals of a quotient of a skew polynomial ring, which endow them of a sort of…
Let $R$ be a finite commutative chain ring, $D_{2n}$ be the dihedral group of size $2n$ and $R[D_{2n}]$ be the dihedral group ring. In this paper, we completely characterize left ideals of $R[D_{2n}]$ (called left $D_{2n}$-codes) when ${\rm…
We focus on two aspects of cyclic orbit codes: invariants under equivalence and quasi-optimality. Regarding the first aspect, we establish a connection between the codewords of a cyclic orbit code and a certain linear set on the projective…
In addition to their applications in data storage, communications systems, and consumer electronics, LCD codes -- a class of linear codes -- have been employed in cryptography recently. LCD cyclic codes were referred to as reversible cyclic…
This paper considers a new alphabet set, which is a ring that we call $\mathbb{F}_4R$, to construct linear error-control codes. Skew cyclic codes over the ring are then investigated in details. We define a nondegenerate inner product and…
Binary cyclic codes having large dimensions and minimum distances close to the square-root bound are highly valuable in applications where high-rate transmission and robust error correction are both essential. They provide an optimal…

We address the problems of constructing quantum convolutional codes (QCCs) and of encoding them. The first construction is a CSS-type construction which allows us to find QCCs of rate 2/4. The second construction yields a quantum…
We consider linear cyclic codes with the locality property, or locally recoverable codes (LRC codes). A family of LRC codes that generalizes the classical construction of Reed-Solomon codes was constructed in a recent paper by I. Tamo and…
