On the construction of constacyclically permutable codes from constacyclic codes
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a way to partition any constacyclic code over a finite field in its equivalence classes according to the algebraic structure of the code. Such a method gives the generalization of cyclically permutable codes (CPCs), which are called constacyclically permutable codes (CCPCs), and it is useful to derive a CCPC from a given constacyclic code. Moreover, we present an enumerative formula for the code size of such a CCPC, with all of the terms being positive integers, and we provide an algebraic method to produce such a CCPC.
