Abstract
A linear code $C$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is called $ฮ”$-divisible if the Hamming weights $\operatorname{wt}(c)$ of all codewords $c \in C$ are divisible by $ฮ”$. The possible effective lengths of $q^r$-divisible codes have been completely characterized for each prime power $q$ and each non-negative integer $r$. The study of $ฮ”$ divisible codes was initiated by Harold Ward. If $c$ divides $ฮ”$ but is coprime to $q$, then each $ฮ”$-divisible code $C$ over $\F_q$ is the $c$-fold repetition of a $ฮ”/c$-divisible code. Here we determine the possible effective lengths of $p^r$-divisible codes over finite fields of characteristic $p$, where $p\in\mathbb{N}$ but $p^r$ is not a power of the field size, i.e., the missing cases.
