Abstract
Lately, quantum error correcting codes have been considered as the Gray images of some special codes over various rings. In this study, we investigate the structure of the cyclic codes of arbitrary length over the finite nonchain ring R p = F p +vF p +···+v p-1 F p where v p = v and obtain quantum error correcting codes over F p by using the Gray map defined in the work of Bayram and Siap (2014).
