Some results on linear codes over the ring Z₄+u Z₄+v Z₄+uv Z₄

Abstract: In this paper, we mainly study the theory of linear codes over the ring

R = m a t h b b Z_{4} + u m a t h b b Z_{4} + v m a t h b b Z_{4} + u v m a t h b b Z_{4}

. By the Chinese Remainder Theorem, we have

R

is isomorphic to the direct sum of four rings

m a t h b b Z_{4}

. We define a Gray map

P h i

from

R^{n}

to

m a t h b b Z_{4}^{4 n}

, which is a distance preserving map. The Gray image of a cyclic code over

R^{n}

is a linear code over

m a t h b b Z_{4}

. Furthermore, we study the MacWilliams identities of linear codes over

R

and give the the generator polynomials of cyclic codes over

R

. Finally, we discuss some properties of MDS codes over

R

.
