Let R = Zq + uZq, where q = p s and u = 0. In this paper, some structural properties of cyclic codes and quasi-cyclic (QC) codes over the ring R are considered. A QC code of length ln with index l over R is viewed both as in the conventional row circulant form and also as an R[x]/(xn − 1)-submodule of GR(R, l)[x]/(xn − 1), where GR(R, l) is the Galois extension ring of degree l over R. A necess...

Abstract. The interval-valued prime fuzzy ideals (in brevity, the iv. prime fuzzy ideals) of a semigroup have been recently studied by Kar, Sarkar and Shum [18]. As a continued study of i-v fuzzy ideals, we are going to investigate the properties of i-v fuzzy quasi-ideal and i-v fuzzy bi-ideal of a semiring and then we characterize the regularity and intra-regularity of a semiring in terms of t...

the aim of this paper is to generalize the‎‎notion of pseudo-almost valuation domains to arbitrary‎ ‎commutative rings‎. ‎it is shown that the classes of chained rings‎ ‎and pseudo-valuation rings are properly contained in the class of‎ ‎pseudo-almost valuation rings; also the class of pseudo-almost‎ ‎valuation rings is properly contained in the class of quasi-local‎ ‎rings with linearly ordere...

Let $R$ be an arbitrary ring and $T$ be a submodule of an $R$-module $M$. A submodule $N$ of $M$ is called $T$-small in $M$ provided for each submodule $X$ of $M$, $Tsubseteq X+N$ implies that $Tsubseteq X$. We study this mentioned notion which is a generalization of the small submodules and we obtain some related results.

Let $M_R$ be a module with $S=End(M_R)$. We call a submodule $K$ of $M_R$ annihilator-small if $K+T=M$, $T$ a submodule of $M_R$, implies that $ell_S(T)=0$, where $ell_S$ indicates the left annihilator of $T$ over $S$. The sum $A_R(M)$ of all such submodules of $M_R$ contains the Jacobson radical $Rad(M)$ and the left singular submodule $Z_S(M)$. If $M_R$ is cyclic, then $A_R(M)$ is the unique ...

We study the p-adic behavior of Jacobi sums for Q(ζp) and link this study to the p-Sylow subgroup of the class group of Q(ζp) + and to some properties of the jacobian of the Fermat curve Xp + Y p = 1 over Fl where l is a prime number distinct from p. Let p be a prime number, p ≥ 5. Iwasawa has shown that the p-adic properties of Jacobi sums for Q(ζp) are linked to Vandiver’s Conjecture (see [5]...

Generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes with arbitrary lengths over the ring Fq + uFq, where u 2 = 0, q = p, n a positive integer and p a prime number, are investigated. By the Chinese Remainder Theorem, structural properties and the decomposition of GQC codes are given. For 1-generator GQC codes, minimal generating sets and lower bounds on the minimum distance are given. As a special class of GQC...
