A linear code $C$ is called a linear complementary dual code (LCD code) if $C \cap C^\perp = {0}$ holds. LCD codes have many applications in cryptography, communication systems, data storage, and quantum coding theory. In this dissertation we show that a necessary and sufficient condition for a cyclic code $C$ over $\Z_4$ of odd length to be an LCD code is that $C=\big( f(x) \big)$ where $f$ is a self-reciprocal polynomial in $\Z_{4}[X]$ which is also in our paper \cite{GK1}. We then extend this result and provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a cyclic code $C$ of length …
