Abstract

In this paper, we consider the construction of new classes of linear codes over the ring \(R_{q,p,m}={\mathbb {Z}}_{p^{m}}[u_{1}, u_{2}, \ldots , u_{ q}]/\left\langle u_{i}^{2}=0,u_{i}u_{j}=u_{j}u_{i}\right\rangle \) for \(i\ne j\) and \(1 \le i,j \le q\). The simplex and MacDonald codes of types \(\alpha \) and \(\beta \) are obtained over \(R_{q,p,m}\). We characterize some linear codes over \({\mathbb {Z}}_{p^{m}}\) that are the torsion codes and Gray images of these simplex and MacDonald codes, and determine the minimal codes.
