In this paper, we study skew cyclic codes over the ring R = Fq + uFq + vFq + uvFq, where u 2 = u, v2 = v, uv = vu, q = p and p is an odd prime. We investigate the structural properties of skew cyclic codes over R through a decomposition theorem. Furthermore, we give a formula for the number of skew cyclic codes of length n over R.

We show that the iterative logarithm of the power series ez − 1 is differentially transcendental over the ring of convergent power series.

Power is a primary concern in modern circuits. Clock distribution networks, in particular, are an essential element of a synchronous digital circuit and a significant power consumer. Clock distribution networks are subject to clock skew due to process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variations and load imbalances. A target skew between sequentially-adjacent registers can be obtained in a balanc...

A new method to derive algebraic formulae for tracing skew rays in radial gradient-index media is described. We obtained power series for the ray position and direction, optical path length and coordinates of the intersection point of the curved ray with the spherical end surface of the GRIN lens. All these formulae include the effects of terms up to the eighth power of the radius in the refrac...

In this work, we study a class of generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes called skew GQC codes. By the factorization theory of ideals, we give the Chinese Remainder Theorem over the skew polynomial ring, which leads to a canonical decomposition of skew GQC codes. We also focus on some characteristics of skew GQC codes in details. For a 1-generator skew GQC code, we define the parity-check polynom...

We prove the following generalization of the classical ShephardTodd-Chevalley Theorem. Let G be a finite group of graded algebra automorphisms of a skew polynomial ring A := kpij [x1, · · · , xn]. Then the fixed subring A has finite global dimension if and only if G is generated by quasireflections. In this case the fixed subring A is isomorphic a skew polynomial ring with possibly different pi...

Let $G*H$ be the product $*$ of $G$ and $H$. In this paper we determine the rth power of the graph $G*H$ in terms of $G^r, H^r$ and $G^r*H^r$, when $*$ is the join, Cartesian, symmetric difference, disjunctive, composition, skew and corona product. Then we solve the equation $(G*H)^r=G^r*H^r$. We also compute the Wiener index and Wiener polarity index of the skew product.
