Abstract$${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}$$ Z p s -additive codes of length n are subgroups of $${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}^n$$ Z p s n , and can be seen as a generalization of linear codes over $${\mathbb {Z}}_2$$ Z 2 , $${\mathbb {Z}}_4$$ Z 4 , or $${\mathbb {Z}}_{2^s}$$ Z 2 s in general. A $${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}$$ Z p s -linear generalized Hadamard (GH) code is a GH code over $${\mathbb {Z}}_p$$ Z p which is the image of a $${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}$$ Z p s -additive code by a generalized Gray map. In this paper, we generalize some known results for $${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}$$ Z p s -linear GH codes with $$p=2$$ p = 2 to any odd prime p. First, we show some results related to the generalized Carlet’s Gray map. Then, by using an iterative construction of $${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}$$ Z p s -additive GH codes of type $$(n;t_1,\ldots , t_s)$$ ( n ; t 1 , … , t s ) , we show for which types the corresponding $${\mathbb {Z}}_{p^s}$$ Z p s -linear GH codes of length $$p^t$$ p t are nonlinear over $${\mathbb {Z}}_p$$ Z p . For these codes, we compute the kernel and its dimension, which allow us to give a partial classification. The obtained results for $$p\ge 3$$ p ≥ 3 are different from the case with $$p=2$$ p = 2 . Finally, the exact number of non-equivalent such codes is given for an infinite number of values of s, t, and any $$p\ge 2$$ p ≥ 2 ; by using also the rank as an invariant in some specific cases.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
