contents Constacyclic codes over finite fields are of theoretical importance as they are closely related to a number of areas of mathematics such as algebra, algebraic geometry, graph theory, combinatorial designs and number theory. However, the study of constacyclic codes in this context remains limited compared to classical cyclic codes. This paper provides two infinite families of $λ$-constacyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ that support infinite families of 3-designs, which generalize the results in [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 69(4): 2341-2354, 2023]. The parameters and weight distributions are determined completely. Besides, we study their subfield subcodes and applications on constructing entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) and locally recoverable codes (LRCs). It is worthy to mention that two classes of maximal entanglement EAQECCs with a negative or a high positive net rate are derived. Moreover, two classes of distance-optimal and dimension-optimal LRCs are also obtained.

Constacyclic codes over finite fields are of theoretical importance as they are closely related to a number of areas of mathematics such as algebra, algebraic geometry, graph theory, combinatorial designs and number theory.
