Abstract

Cyclotomy, firstly introduced by Gauss, is an important topic in Mathematics since it has a number of applications in number theory, combinatorics, coding theory and cryptography. Depending on $ v $ prime or composite, cyclotomy on a residue class ring $ {\mathbb{Z}}_{v} $ can be divided into classical cyclotomy or generalized cyclotomy. Inspired by a foregoing work of Zeng et al. [40], we introduce a generalized cyclotomy of order $ e $ on the ring $ {\rm GF}(q_1)\times {\rm GF}(q_2)\times \cdots \times {\rm GF}(q_k) $, where $ q_i $ and $ q_j $ ($ i\neq j $) may not be co-prime, which includes classical cyclotomy as a special case. Here, $ q_1 $, $ q_2 $, $ \cdots $, $ q_k $ are powers of primes with an integer $ e|(q_i-1) $ for any $ 1\leq i\leq k $. Then we obtain some basic properties of the corresponding generalized cyclotomic numbers. Furthermore, we propose three classes of partitioned difference families by means of the generalized cyclotomy above and $ d $-form functions with difference balanced property. Afterwards, three families of optimal constant composition codes from these partitioned difference families are obtained, and their parameters are also summarized.
