Double cyclic codes over \(\mathbb{F}_q + u\mathbb{F}_q + u^2\mathbb{F}_q\) (Q274537)

Summary: A double cyclic code of length \((r, s)\) over a chain ring \(R\) is a set that can be partitioned into two parts that any cyclic shift of the coordinates of both parts leaves invariant the code. These codes can be viewed as \(R[x]\)-submodules of \(R^r \times R^s\). In this paper, the generator polynomials of this family of codes as \(R[x]\)-submodules of \(R^r \times R^s\) are determined. Further, the minimal generating sets of this family of codes as \(R\)-submodules of \(R^r \times R^s\) are obtained. Finally, we show the relationship of generators between the double cyclic code and its dual.
