Abstract

Let \(R=\mathbb {F}_{q^{2}}+u \mathbb {F}_{q^{2}},\) where \(\mathbb {F}_{q^{2}}\) is the finite field with q2 elements, q is a power of a prime p, and u2 = 0. In this paper, a class of maximal entanglement entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) is obtained by employing (1 − u)-constacyclic Hermitian linear complementary dual (LCD) codes of length n over R. First, we give a sufficient condition for a linear code C of length n over R to be a Hermitian LCD code and claim that there does not exist a non-free Hermitian LCD code of length n over R. Also, assume that \(\gcd (n, q)=1\), and γ is a unit in R, we obtain all γ-constacyclic Hermitian LCD codes. Finally, we derive symplectic LCD codes of length 2n over \(\mathbb {F}_{q^{2}}\) as Gray images of linear and constacyclic codes of length n over R. By using the explicit symplectic method in Galindo et al. (Quantum Inf. Process. 18(4), 116 9), we get the desired maximal entanglement EAQECCs.
