Relative projective group codes over chain rings

Abstract: A structure theorem of the group codes which are relative projective for the subgroup

l b r a c e 1 b r a c e

of

G

is given. With this, we show that all such relative projective group codes in a fixed group algebra

R G

are in bijection to the chains of projective group codes of length

e l l

in the group algebra

m a t h b b F G

, where

m a t h b b F

is the residue field of

R

. We use a given chain to construct the dual code in

R G

and also derive the minimum Hamming weight as well as a lower bound of the minimum euclidean weight.
