In this paper convolutional codes with cyclic structure will be investigated. These codes can be understood as left principal ideals in a suitable skew-polynomial ring. It has been shown in [4] that only certain combinations of the algebraic parameters (field size, length, dimension, and Forney indices) can occur for such cyclic codes. We will investigate whether all these combinations can indeed be realized by a suitable cyclic code and, if so, how to construct such a code. A complete characterization and construction will be given for minimal cyclic codes. It is derived from a detailed investigation of the units in the skew-polynomial ring.

A ring R is called Armendariz if whenever the product of any two polynomials in R[x] over R is zero, then so is the product of any pair of coefficients from the two polynomials. Such rings have been extensively studied in literature. For a ring endomorphism α, we introduce the notion of α-Armendariz rings by considering the polynomials in the skew polynomial ring R[x; α] in place of the ring R[x]. A number of properties of this generalization are established, and connections of properties of an α-Armendariz ring R with those of the ring R[x; α] are investigated. In particular, among other results, we show that there is a strong connection of the Baer property and the p.p.-property (principal ideals are projective) of the two rings, respectively. Several known results follow as consequences of our results.

Abstract Let k be a field, let {\mathfrak{A}_{1}} be the k-algebra {k[x_{1}^{\pm 1},\dots,x_{s}^{\pm 1}]} of Laurent polynomials in {x_{1},\dots,x_{s}} , and let {\mathfrak{A}_{2}} be the k-algebra {k[x,y]} of polynomials in the commutative indeterminates x and y. Let {\sigma_{1}} be the monomial k-automorphism of {\mathfrak{A}_{1}} given by {A=(a_{i,j})\in GL_{s}(\mathbb{Z})} and {\sigma_{1}(x_{i})=\prod_{j=1}^{s}x_{j}^{a_{i,j}}} , {1\leq i\leq s} , and let {\sigma_{2}\in{\mathrm{Aut}}_{k}(k[x,y])} . Let {D_{i}} , {1\leq i\leq 2} , be the ring of fractions of the skew polynomial ring {\mathfrak{A}_{i}[X;\sigma_{i}]} , and let {D_{i}^{\bullet}} be its multiplicative group. Under a mild restriction for {D_{1}} , and in general for {D_{2}} , we show that {D_{i}^{\bullet}} , {1\leq i\leq 2} , contains a free subgroup. If {i=1} and {s=2} , we show that a noncentral normal subgroup N of {D_{1}^{\bullet}} contains a free subgroup.

Nine new [Formula: see text] linear codes with lengths [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] that improve previously best known parameters are constructed. By modifying these codes, another 17 new codes are obtained. It is conjectured that the complete set of factors of [Formula: see text] can be derived from the factors of [Formula: see text] for even values of [Formula: see text] in the skew polynomial ring [Formula: see text]. It is further shown that the [Formula: see text] code obtained is linearly complementary dual.

AbstractWe provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a skew polynomial ring of derivation type to be semiprimitive when the base ring has no nonzero nil ideals. This extends existing results on the Jacobson radical of skew polynomial rings of derivation type.

AbstractWe consider separably closed fields of characteristic p > 0 and fixed imperfection degree as modules over a skew polynomial ring. We axiomatize the corresponding theory and we show that it is complete and that it admits quantifier elimination in the usual module language augmented with additive functions which are the analog of the p-component functions.

Antoine studied the structure of the set of nilpotent elements in Armendariz rings and introduced the concept of nil-Armendariz property as a generalization. Hong et al. studied Armendariz property on skew polynomial rings and introduced the notion of an α-Armendariz ring, where α is a ring monomorphism. In this paper, we investigate the structure of the set of α-nilpotent elements in α-Armendariz rings and introduce an α-nil-Armendariz ring. We examine the set of [Formula: see text]-nilpotent elements in a skew polynomial ring R[x;α], where [Formula: see text] is the monomorphism induced by the monomorphism α of an α-Armendariz ring R. We prove that every polynomial with α-nilpotent coefficients in a ring R is [Formula: see text]-nilpotent when R is of bounded index of α-nilpotency, and moreover, R is shown to be α-nil-Armendariz in this situation. We also characterize the structure of the set of α-nilpotent elements in α-nil-Armendariz rings, and investigate the relations between α-(nil-)Armendariz property and other standard ring theoretic properties.

AbstractThe characterization of a separable polynomial over an indecomposable commutative ring (with no idempotents but 0 and 1) in terms of the discriminant proved by G. J. Janusz is generalized to a skew polynomial ring R [ X, ρ] over a not necessarily commutative ring R where ρ is an automorphism of R with a finite order. 1980 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc.): 16 A 05.
