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.

Monomial-like codes

As a generalization of cyclic codes of length p^s over F_{p^a}, we study n-dimensional cyclic codes of length p^{s_1} X ... X p^{s_n} over F_{p^a} generated by a single "monomial". Namely, we study multi-variable cyclic codes of the form <(x_1 - 1)^{i_1} ... (x_n - 1)^{i_n}> in F_{p^a}[x_1...x_n] / < x_1^{p^{s_1}}-1, ..., x_n^{p^{s_n}}-1 >. We call such codes monomial-like codes. We show that these codes arise from the product of certain single variable codes and we determine their minimum Hamming distance. We determine the dual of monomial-like codes yielding a parity check matrix. We also present an alternative way of constructing a parity check matrix using the Hasse derivative. We study the weight hierarchy of certain monomial like codes. We simplify an expression that gives us the weight hierarchy of these codes.

Two generalizations on the minimum Hamming distance of repeated-root constacyclic codes

We study constacyclic codes, of length $np^s$ and $2np^s$, that are generated by the polynomials $(x^n + γ)^{\ell}$ and $(x^n - ξ)^i(x^n + ξ)^j$\ respectively, where $x^n + γ$, $x^n - ξ$ and $x^n + ξ$ are irreducible over the alphabet $\F_{p^a}$. We generalize the results of [5], [6] and [7] by computing the minimum Hamming distance of these codes. As a particular case, we determine the minimum Hamming distance of cyclic and negacyclic codes, of length $2p^s$, over a finite field of characteristic $p$.
