In this paper, cyclic codes are established over some finite quaternion integer rings with respect to the quaternion Mannheim distance, and de- coding algorithm for these codes is given.
It is shown in this paper that, if $R$ is a Frobenius ring, then the quaternion ring $\mathcal{H}_{a,b}(R)$ is a Frobenius ring for all units $a,b \in R$. In particular, if $q$ is an odd prime power then $\mathcal{H}_{a,b}(\mathbb{F}_q)$ is the semisimple non-commutative matrix ring $M_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$. Consequently, a homogeneous weight that depends on the field size $q$ is obtained. On the other hand, the homogeneous weight of a finite Frobenius ring with a unique minimal ideal is derived in terms of the size of the ideal. This is illustrated by the quaternions over the Galois ring $GR(2^r,m…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$, a prime power integer such that $q=et+1$ where $t\geq 1,e\geq 2$ are integers. In this paper, we study cyclic codes of length $n$ over a non-chain ring $R_{e,q}=\mathbb{F}_q[u]/\langle u^e-1\rangle$. We define a Gray map $φ$ and obtain many { maximum-distance-separable} (MDS) and optimal $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear codes from the Gray images of cyclic codes. Under certain conditions we determine { linear complementary dual} (LCD) codes of length $n$ when $\gcd(n,q)\neq 1$ and $\gcd(n,q)= 1$, respectively. It is proved that { a} cyclic code $\mathcal…
We determine a condition on the minimum Hamming weight of some special abelian group codes and, as a consequence of this result, we establish that any such code is, up to permutational equivalence, a subspace of the direct sum of $s$ copies of the repetition code of length $t$, for some suitable positive integers $s$ and $t$. Moreover, we provide a complete characterisation of permutation automorphisms of the linear code $C=\bigoplus_{i=1}^{s}Rep_{t}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ and we establish that such a code is an abelian group code, for every pair of integers $s,t\geq1$. Finally, in a similar fashion…
