Let (G, ∗) be a group and X any set, an action of a group G on X, denoted as G×X → X, (g, x) 7→ g.x, assigns to each element in G a transformation of X that is compatible with the group structure of G. If G has a subgroup H then there is a transitive group action of G on the set (G/H) of the right co-sets of H by right multiplication. A representation of a group G on a vector space V carries the dimension of the vector space. Now, given a field F and a finite group G, there is a bijective correspondence between the representations of G on the finitedimensional F-vector spaces and finitely generated FG-modules. We use the FG -modules to construct linear ternary codes and combinatorial designs from the permutation representations of the group L3(4). We investigate the properties and parameters of these codes and designs.
We further obtain the lattice structures of the sub-modules and compare these ternary codes with the binary codes constructed from the same group.
