Abstract: Let f(u) be a polynomial of degree m, m ≥ 2, which splits into distinct linear factors over a finite field 𝔽q. Let ℛ = 𝔽q[u] / ⟨ f(u) ⟩ be a finite non-chain ring. In this paper, we study duadic codes, their extensions and triadic codes over the ring ℛ. A Gray map from ℛn to (𝔽q m)n is defined which preserves self-duality of linear codes. As a consequence, self-dual, isodual, self-orthogonal and complementary dual(LCD) codes over 𝔽 q are constructed. Some examples are also given to illustrate this.

Keywords: quadratic residue codes; duadic codes; extended duadic-codes; triadic codes; Gray map; self-dual and self-orthogonal codes; isodual codes; LCD codes.
