On a relation between GAG codes and AG codes.

In this paper, we first give a relationship between generalized algebraic geometry codes (GAG codes) and algebraic geometry codes (AG codes). More precisely, we show that a GAG code is contained (up to isomorphism) in a suitable AG code. Next we recall the concept of an N₁N₂-automorphism group, a subgroup of the automorphism group of a GAG code. With the use of the relation we obtained between these two classes of codes, we show that the N₁N₂-automorphism group is a subgroup of the automorphism group of an AG code. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
