| Abstract: | The Z2s -additive codes are subgroups of ZZn2s, and can be seen as a generalization of linear codes over Z2 and Z4. A Zs-linear Hadamard code is a binary Hadamard code which is the Gray map image of a Zs -additive code. It is known that either the rank or the dimension of the kernel can be used to give a complete classification for the Z4-linear Hadamard codes. However, when s > 2, the dimension of the kernel of Z2s-linear Hadamard codes of length 2t only provides a complete classification for some values of t and s. In this paper, the rank of these codes is computed for s=3. Moreover, it is proved that this invariant, along with the dimension of the kernel, provides a complete classification, once t ≥ 3 is fixed. In this case, the number of nonequivalent such codes is also established. |
