Abstract
In this paper, we study a special class of \({\mathbb {Z}}_p{\mathbb {Z}}_p[u]\)-additive code \(C_L\) defined in terms of the down-set, where \(u^2=u\) and p is an odd prime. By a proper choice of the down-set, we determine the weight distribution of the additive code \(C_L\). In particular, we obtain several infinite families of minimal and optimal few-weight p-codes via the Gray map, and these codes can be applied to secret sharing schemes.
