Left dihedral codes over Galois rings GR(p^2, m)

Abstract: Let

D_{2 n} = l a n g l e x, y m i d x^{n} = 1, y^{2} = 1, y x y = x^{- 1} a n g l e

be a dihedral group, and

R = m G R (p^{2}, m)

be a Galois ring of characteristic

p^{2}

and cardinality

p^{2 m}

where

p

is a prime. Left ideals of the group ring

R [D_{2 n}]

are called left dihedral codes over

R

of length

2 n

, and abbreviated as left

D_{2 n}

-codes over

R

. Let

m g c d (n, p) = 1

in this paper. Then any left

D_{2 n}

-code over

R

is uniquely decomposed into a direct sum of concatenated codes with inner codes

{c a l A}_{i}

and outer codes

C_{i}

, where

{c a l A}_{i}

is a cyclic code over

R

of length

n

and

C_{i}

is a skew cyclic code of length

2

over an extension Galois ring or principal ideal ring of

R

, and a generator matrix and basic parameters for each outer code

C_{i}

is given. Moreover, a formula to count the number of these codes is obtained, the dual code for each left

D_{2 n}

-code is determined and all self-dual left

D_{2 n}

-codes and self-orthogonal left

D_{2 n}

-codes over

R

are presented, respectively.
