Duality Preserving Gray Maps for Codes over Rings

Abstract

Given a finite ring AA which is a free left module over a subring RR of AA, two types of RR-bases, pseudo-self-dual bases (similar to trace orthogonal bases) and symmetric bases, are defined which in turn are used to define duality preserving maps from codes over AA to codes over RR. Both types of bases are generalizations of similar concepts for fields. Many illustrative examples are given to shed light on the advantages to such mappings as well as their abundance.
