Codes and Rings: Theory and Practice is a systematic review of literature that focuses on codes over rings and rings acting on codes. Since the breakthrough works on quaternary codes in the 1990s, two decades of research have moved the field far beyond its original periphery. This book fills this gap by consolidating results scattered in the literature, addressing classical as well as applied aspects of rings and coding theory. New research covered by the book encompasses skew cyclic codes, decomposition theory of quasi-cyclic codes and related codes and duality over Frobenius rings. Primarily suitable for ring theorists at PhD level engaged in application research and coding theorists interested in algebraic foundations, the work is also valuable to computational scientists and working cryptologists in the area. - Consolidates 20+ years of research in one volume, helping researchers save time in the evaluation of disparate literature - Discusses duality formulas in the context of Frobenius rings - Reviews decomposition of quasi-cyclic codes under ring action - Evaluates the ideal and modular structure of skew-cyclic codes - Supports applications in data compression, distributed storage, network coding, cryptography and across error-correction

This book provides a self-contained introduction to algebraic coding theory over finite Frobenius rings. It is the first to offer a comprehensive account on the subject. Coding theory has its origins in the engineering problem of effective electronic communication where the alphabet is generally the binary field. Since its inception, it has grown as a branch of mathematics, and has since been expanded to consider any finite field, and later also Frobenius rings, as its alphabet. This book presents a broad view of the subject as a branch of pure mathematics and relates major results to other fields, including combinatorics, number theory and ring theory. Suitable for graduate students, the book will be of interest to anyone working in the field of coding theory, as well as algebraists and number theorists looking to apply coding theory to their own work.

The contributed talks werechosenbyathoroughreviewingprocessfrom53submissions.Oftheinvited and contributed talks,28 arerepresentedaspapersin this volume. These papers are grouped loosely under the headings: Coding Theory, Symmetric Crypt- raphy, Security Protocols, Asymmetric Cryptography, Boolean Functions, and Side Channels and Implementations. Numerous people helped to make this conference a success. To begin with I would like to thank all members of the Technical Program Committee who put a great deal of e?ort into the reviewing process so as to ensure a hi- quality program. Moreover, I wish to thank a number of people, external to the committee, who also contributed reviews on the submitted papers. Thanks, of course,mustalso goto allauthorswho submitted papers to the conference,both those rejected and accepted. The review process was also greatly facilitated by the use of the Web-submission-and-review software, written by Shai Halevi of IBM Research, and I would like to thank him for making this package available to the community. The invited talks were given by Frank Kschischang, Ronald Cramer, and Alexander Pott, and two of these invitedtalksappearaspapersinthisvolume.

Foreword by Dieter Jungnickel Finite Commutative Rings and their Applications answers a need for an introductory reference in finite commutative ring theory as applied to information and communication theory. This book will be of interest to both professional and academic researchers in the fields of communication and coding theory. The book is a concrete and self-contained introduction to finite commutative local rings, focusing in particular on Galois and Quasi-Galois rings. The reader is provided with an active and concrete approach to the study of the purely algebraic structure and properties of finite commutative rings (in particular, Galois rings) as well as to their applications to coding theory. Finite Commutative Rings and their Applications is the first to address both theoretical and practical aspects of finite ring theory. The authors provide a practical approach to finite rings through explanatory examples, thereby avoiding an abstract presentation of the subject. The section on Quasi-Galois rings presents new and unpublished results as well. The authors then introduce some applications of finite rings, in particular Galois rings, to coding theory, using a solid algebraic and geometric theoretical background.
