In this paper, we study a family of constacyclic BCH codes over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ of length $n=\frac{q^{2m}-1}{q+1}$, where $q$ is a prime power, and $m\geq2$ an even integer. The maximum design distance of narrow-sense Hermitian dual-containing constacyclic BCH codes of length $n$ is determined. Furthermore, the exact dimension of the constacyclic BCH codes with given design distance is computed. As a consequence, we are able to derive the parameters of quantum codes as a function of their design parameters of the associated constacyclic BCH codes. This improves the result by Yuan et al. (Des Codes Cryptogr 85(1): 179-190, 2017), showing that with the same lengths, except for three trivial cases ($q=2,3,4$), our resultant quantum codes can always yield strict dimension or minimum distance gains than the ones obtained by Yuan et al.. Moreover, fixing length $n=\frac{q^{2m}-1}{q+1}$, some constructed quantum codes have better parameters or are beneficial complements compared with some known results (Aly et al., IEEE Trans Inf Theory 53(3): 1183-1188, 2007, Li et al., Quantum Inf Process 18(5): 127, 2019, Wang et al., Quantum Inf Process 18(8): 323, 2019, Song et al., Quantum Inf Process 17(10): 1-24, 2018.).
For any constacyclic code over a finite commutative chain ring of length coprime to the characteristic of the ring, we construct explicitly generator polynomials and check polynomials, and exhibit a BCH bound for such constacyclic codes. As a consequence, such constacyclic codes are principal. Further, we get a necessary and sufficient condition that the cyclic codes over a finite commutative principal ideal ring are all principal. This condition is still sufficient for constacyclic codes over such rings being principal.
The aim of this paper is to give conditions for the equivalency between skew constacyclic codes, skew cyclic codes and skew negacyclic codes defined over semi-local rings. Also, we provide construction and an enumeration of Euclidean and Hermitian skew LCD cyclic codes over $ \mathbb{F}_{p^{t}}+ v \mathbb{F}_{p^{t}} $. Several optimal LCD codes are obtained from Gray images of LCD skew codes over semi-local rings.
Entanglement-assisted quantum error correcting codes (EAQECCs) constructed from Reed-Solomon codes and BCH codes are considered in this work. It is provided a complete and explicit formula for the parameters of EAQECCs coming from any Reed-Solomon code, for the Hermitian metric, and from any BCH code with extension degree $2$ and consecutive cyclotomic cosets, for both the Euclidean and the Hermitian metric. The main task in this work is the computation of a completely general formula for $c$, the minimum number of required maximally entangled quantum states.

The intersection ${\bf C}\bigcap {\bf C}^{\perp}$ (${\bf C}\bigcap {\bf C}^{\perp_h}$) of a linear code ${\bf C}$ and its Euclidean dual ${\bf C}^{\perp}$ (Hermitian dual ${\bf C}^{\perp_h}$) is called the Euclidean (Hermitian) hull of this code. It is natural to consider the hull-variation problem when a linear code ${\bf C}$ is transformed to an equivalent code ${\bf v} \cdot {\bf C}$. In this paper we introduce the maximal hull dimension as an invariant of a linear code with respect to the equivalent transformations. Then some basic properties of the maximal hull dimension are studied. We p…
Entanglement-assisted quantum (QUENTA) codes are a subclass of quantum error-correcting codes which use entanglement as a resource. These codes can provide error correction capability higher than the codes derived from the traditional stabilizer formalism. In this paper, it is shown a general method to construct QUENTA codes from cyclic codes. Afterwards, the method is applied to Reed-Solomon codes, BCH codes, and general cyclic codes. We use the Euclidean and Hermitian construction of QUENTA codes. Two families of QUENTA codes are maximal distance separable (MDS), and one is almost MDS or alm…
