Abstract

In this article, we study skew $\theta - (1+2u)$-constacyclic codes over $R=\mathbb{Z}_4+u\mathbb{Z}_4,$  where $u^2=2$ and define some new Gray maps from $\mathbb{Z}_4+u\mathbb{Z}_4$  to $\mathbb{Z}_4$ and $\mathbb{F}_4$. It is shown that the Gray images of skew $\theta - (1+2u)$-constacyclic codes over $\mathbb{Z}_4+u\mathbb{Z}_4$ are cyclic over $\mathbb{Z}_4$  of length $2n$, and are quasi-cyclic and permutation equivalent to quasi-cyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_2$ of length $4n$.
