On the Hamming distance of linear codes over a finite chain ring

Let R be a finite chain ring (e.g. a Galois ring), K its residue field and C a linear code over R. We prove that d(C), the Hamming distance of C, is d((C : α)), where (C : α) is a submodule quotient, α is a certain element of R and — denotes the canonical projection to K. These two codes also have t...
