Polycyclic codes over Galois rings with applications to repeated-root constacyclic codes

Cyclic, negacyclic and constacyclic codes are part of a larger class of codes called polycyclic codes; namely, those codes which can be viewed as ideals of a factor ring of a polynomial ring. The structure of the ambient ring of polycyclic codes over GR(p^a,m) and generating sets for its ideals are considered. Along with some structure details of the ambient ring, the existance of a certain type of generating set for an ideal is proven.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:0906.400

A transform approach to polycyclic and serial codes over rings

Producción CientíficaIn this paper, a transform approach is used for polycyclic and serial codes over finite local rings in the case that the defining polynomials have no multiple roots. This allows us to study them in terms of linear algebra and invariant subspaces as well as understand the duality in terms of the transform domain. We also make a characterization of when two polycyclic ambient spaces are Hamming-isometric.Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades / Agencia Estatal de Investigación / 0.13039/501100011033 (grant PGC2018-096446-B-C21
