Abstract

Some classes of linear codes over the ring \(\mathbb {Z}_4+v\mathbb {Z}_4\) with \(v^2=v\) are considered. Construction of Euclidean formally self-dual codes and unimodular complex lattices from self-dual codes over \(\mathbb {Z}_4+v\mathbb {Z}_4\) are studied. Structural properties of cyclic codes and quadratic residue codes are also considered. Finally, some good and new \(\mathbb {Z}_4\)-linear codes are constructed from linear codes over \(\mathbb {Z}_4+v\mathbb {Z}_4\).
