We express the weight enumerators of self-dual and doubly even (Type II for short) codes of length $24$ with a specified basis. As a consequence, we present some congruence relations among the weight enumerators.
We establish the existence of optimal maximal entanglement entanglement-assisted quantum $[[n,k,d;n-k]]_2$ codes for $(n,k,d)=(14,6,7)$, $(15,7,7)$, $(17,6,9)$, $(17,7,8)$, $(19,7,9)$ and $(20,7,10)$. These codes are obtained from…
The weight enumerators (quant-ph/9610040) of a quantum code are quite powerful tools for exploring its structure. As the weight enumerators are quadratic invariants of the code, this suggests the consideration of higher-degree polynomial…
We consider the problem of finding $A_2(n,\{d_1,d_2\})$ defined as the maximal size of a binary (non-linear) code of length $n$ with two distances $d_1$ and $d_2$. Binary codes with distances $d$ and $d+2$ of size…
There are exactly two non-commutative rings of size $4$, namely, $E = \langle a, b ~\vert ~ 2a = 2b = 0, a^2 = a, b^2 = b, ab= a, ba = b\rangle$ and its opposite ring $F$. These rings are non-unital. A subset $D$ of $E^m$ is defined with…
In this paper, we determine the dimensions of the residue codes of extremal Type II Z4-codes for lengths 32 and 40. We demonstrate that every binary doubly even self-dual code of length 32 can be realized as the residue code of some…
In this work, quadratic double and quadratic bordered double circulant constructions are applied to F_4 + uF_4 as well as F_4, as a result of which extremal binary self-dual codes of length 56 and 64 are obtained. The binary extension…
Let $F$ be an $n$-vertex forest. We say that an edge $e\notin F$ is in the shadow of $F$ if $F\cup\{e\}$ contains a cycle. It is easy to see that if $F$ is "almost a tree", that is, it has $n-2$ edges, then at least…
For the past decades, linear codes with few weights have been widely studied, since they have applications in space communications, data storage and cryptography. In this paper, a class of binary linear codes is constructed and their weight…
Linear codes are considered over the ring Z_4+uZ_4, a non-chain extension of Z_4. Lee weights, Gray maps for these codes are defined and MacWilliams identities for the complete, symmetrized and Lee weight enumerators are proved. Two…
A computer calculation with Magma shows that there is no extremal self-dual binary code C of length 72, whose automorphism group contains the symmetric group of degree 3, the alternating group of degree 4 or the dihedral group of order 8.…
Recently, minimal linear codes have been extensively studied due to their applications in secret sharing schemes, secure two-party computations, and so on. Constructing minimal linear codes violating the Ashikhmin-Barg condition and then…
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…
For $(n,d)= (66,17),(78,19)$ and $(94,21)$, we construct quantum $[[n,0,d]]$ codes which improve the previously known lower bounds on the largest minimum weights among quantum codes with these parameters. These codes are constructed from…
Linear complementary dual codes (or codes with complementary duals) are codes whose intersections with their dual codes are trivial. We study binary linear complementary dual $[n,k]$ codes with the largest minimum weight among all binary…
In this work, we introduce the concept of distance between self-dual codes, which generalizes the concept of a neighbor for self-dual codes. Using the k-neighbors, we are able to construct extremal binary self-dual codes of length 68 with…
Recently some mixed alphabet rings are involved in constructing few-Lee weight additive codes with optimal or minimal Gray images using suitable defining sets or down-sets. Inspired by these works, we choose the mixed alphabet ring…
In this note, we give basic properties of ternary four-negacirculant self-dual codes. By exhaustive computer search based on the properties, we complete a classification of ternary extremal four-negacirculant self-dual codes of lengths 40,…
In this work, new construction methods for self-dual codes are given. The methods use the short Kharaghani array and a variation of it. These are applicable to any commutative Frobenius ring. We apply the constructions over the ring F_2 +…
For nonnegative integers $n,d,w$, let $A(n,d,w)$ be the maximum size of a code $C \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ with constant weight $w$ and minimum distance at least $d$. We consider two semidefinite programs based on quadruples of code words…
