Quasi-abelian codes constitute an important class of linear codes containing theoretically and practically interesting codes such as quasi-cyclic codes, abelian codes, and cyclic codes. In particular, the sub-class consisting of 1-generator quasi-abelian codes contains large families of good codes. Based on the well-known decomposition of quasi-abelian codes, the characterization and enumeratio...

a group is called morphic if for each normal endomorphism α in end(g),there exists β such that ker(α)= gβ and gα= ker(β). in this paper, we consider the case that there exist normal endomorphisms β and γ such that ker(α)= gβ and gα = ker(γ). we call g quasi-morphic, if this happens for any normal endomorphism α in end(g). we get the following results: g is quasi-morphic if and only if, for any ...

In this paper, we prove that every semi-Cayley graph over a group G is quasi-abelian if and only if G is abelian.

The class of 1-generator quasi-abelian codes over finite fields is revisited. Alternative and explicit characterization and enumeration of such codes are given. An algorithm to find all 1-generator quasi-abelian codes is provided. Two 1-generator quasi-abelian codes whose minimum distances are improved from Grassl’s online table are presented. 2010 MSC: 94B15, 94B60, 16A26

1 Basic Properties Definition 1. Let X be a scheme. We denote the category of sheaves of OX -modules by OXMod or Mod(X). The full subcategories of qausi-coherent and coherent modules are denoted by Qco(X) and Coh(X) respectively. Mod(X) is a grothendieck abelian category, and it follows from (AC,Lemma 39) and (H, II 5.7) that Qco(X) is an abelian subcategory of Mod(X). If X is noetherian, then ...

Algebraic structure of codes over Fq , closed under arbitrary abelian group G of permutations with exponent relatively prime to q, called G-invariant codes, is investigated using a transform domain approach. In particular, this general approach unveils algebraic structure of quasicyclic codes, abelian codes, cyclic codes, and quasi-abelian codes with restriction on G to appropriate special case...
