Abstract

This paper primarily investigates the structural properties of constacyclic codes over the ring mceclip0-29110f26a6f609ec090fc402b20bc6b3.png , defined as mceclip0-fa6eae228da652f0ddbb7f0d2257c5f9.png where i, j = 1, 2, 3, ..., k, and k, m are positive integers. Here, mceclip1.png denotes a finite field of order pm with characteristic p, an odd prime. Furthermore, we determine the necessary and sufficient conditions for the duals of constacyclic codes to exist. These findings make it easier to create new Quantum Error-Correcting (QEC) codes throughout the ring mceclip2.png (i.e., when k = 1), as well as optimal linear codes that make use of the Gray images of constacyclic codes. Additionally, Table 4 presents several Linear Complementary Dual (LCD) codes obtained using the Gray map.
