Galois LCD Codes over Finite Fields (1705.00770v1)
Published 2 May 2017 in cs.IT and math.IT
Abstract: In this paper, we study the complementary dual codes in more general setting (which are called Galois LCD codes) by a uniform method. A necessary and sufficient condition for linear codes to be Galois LCD codes is determined, and constacyclic codes to be Galois LCD codes are characterized. Some illustrative examples which constacyclic codes are Galois LCD MDS codes are provided as well. In particular, we study Hermitian LCD constacyclic codes. Finally, we present a construction of a class of Hermitian LCD codes which are also MDS codes.
