In this paper, we introduce and investigate the neighborhood of binary self-dual codes. We prove that there is no better Type I code than the best Type II code of the same length. Further, we give some new necessary conditions for the…

In this paper we study the existence of at least one non-inner automorphism of order p in a finite normally constrained p-group when p is an odd prime.
In this note, we investigate the performance of optimal double circulant even codes which are not self-dual, as measured by the decoding error probability in bounded distance decoding. To do this, we classify the optimal double circulant…
In this article we study the automorphism groups of binary cyclic codes. In particular, we provide explicit constructions for codes whose automorphism groups can be described as (a) direct products of two symmetric groups or (b) iterated…
Double circulant codes of length $2n$ over the semilocal ring $R = \mathbb{F}_q + u\mathbb{F}_q,\, u^2=u,$ are studied when $q$ is an odd prime power, and $-1$ is a square in $\mathbb{F}_q.$ Double negacirculant codes of length $2n$ are…
New $s$-extremal extremal unimodular lattices in dimensions $38$, $40$, $42$ and $44$ are constructed from self-dual codes over $\mathbb{F}_5$ by Construction A. In the process of constructing these codes, we obtain a self-dual $[44,22,14]$…
Ternary self-dual codes have been classified for lengths up to 20. At length 24, a classification of only extremal self-dual codes is known. In this paper, we give a complete classification of ternary self-dual codes of length 24 using the…
A complete classification of binary doubly even self-dual codes of length 40 is given. As a consequence, a classification of binary extremal self-dual codes of length 38 is also given.
We construct new $s$-extremal singly even self-dual codes of minimum weights $8,10,12$ and $14$. We also give tables for the currently known results on the existence of $s$-extremal singly even self-dual codes of minimum weights $8,10,12$…
The study of permutation automorphism groups of cyclic codes is a central topic in algebraic coding theory. A cyclic code over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is called irreducible if its check polynomial is irreducible over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Such a code is…
Four circulant codes form a special class of $2$-generator, index $4$, quasi-cyclic codes. Under some conditions on their generator matrices they can be shown to be self-dual. Artin primitive root conjecture shows the existence of an…
In this note, we construct new doubly even self-dual codes having minimum weight $20$ for lengths $112$, $120$ and $128$. This implies that there are at least three inequivalent extremal doubly even self-dual codes of length $112$.
In this paper, we present a new bordered construction for self-dual codes which employs $\lambda$-circulant matrices. We give the necessary conditions for our construction to produce self-dual codes over a finite commutative Frobenius ring…
We introduce a consistent and efficient method to construct self-dual codes over $GF(q)$ with symmetric generator matrices from a self-dual code over $GF(q)$ of smaller length where $q \equiv 1 \pmod 4$. Using this method, we improve the…
We give a complete list of all the 70 class two groups of exponent p (p>2) and order p^k for k<9. For each of these groups the number of conjugacy classes is a polynomial in p, and the order of the automorphism group is a polynomial in p.…
We introduce self-dual codes over the Kleinian four group $K = \mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2$ for a natural quadratic form on $K^n$ and develop the theory. Topics studied are: weight enumerators, mass formulas, classification up to…
The existence and construction of self-dual codes in a permutation module of a finite group for the semisimple case are described from two aspects, one is from the point of view of the composition factors which are self-dual modules, the…
In this paper, the investigation on the algebraic structure of the ring $\frac{\mathbb{F}_q[v]}{\langle\,v^q-v\,\rangle}$ and the description of its automorphism group, enable to study the algebraic structure of codes and their dual over…
As far as we know, there is no decoding algorithm of any binary self-dual $[40, 20, 8]$ code except for the syndrome decoding applied to the code directly. This syndrome decoding for a binary self-dual $[40,20,8]$ code is not efficient in…
