文摘Abstract We investigate negacyclic codes over the Galois ring GR(2a,m) of length N = 2kn, where n is odd and k≥0. We first determine the structure of u-constacyclic codes of length n over the finite chain ring GR(2a, m)[u]/〈u2k + 1〉. Then using a ring isomorphism we obtain the structure of negacyclic codes over GR(2a, m) of length N = 2kn (n odd) and explore the existence of self-dual negacyclic codes over GR(2a, m).
