It is well known that quantum codes can be constructed by means of classical symplectic dual-containing codes. This paper considers a family of two-generator quasi-cyclic codes and derives sufficient conditions for these codes to be…
Self-dual binary linear codes have been extensively studied and classified for length n <= 40. However, little attention has been paid to linear codes that coincide with their orthogonal complement when the underlying inner product is not…
Currently known secondary construction techniques for linear codes mainly include puncturing, shortening, and extending. In this paper, we propose a novel method for the secondary construction of linear codes based on their weight…

We give restrictions on the weight enumerators of ternary near-extremal self-dual codes of length divisible by $12$ and quaternary near-extremal Hermitian self-dual codes of length divisible by $6$. We consider the weight enumerators for…
The construction of self-dual codes over small fields such that their minimum distances are as large as possible is a long-standing challenging problem in the coding theory. In 2009, a family of binary self-dual cyclic codes with lengths…
There is a local ring $E$ of order $4,$ without identity for the multiplication, defined by generators and relations as $E=\langle a,b \mid 2a=2b=0,\, a^2=a,\, b^2=b,\,ab=a,\, ba=b\rangle.$ We study a special construction of self-orthogonal…
A simple construction of quaternary hermitian self-orthogonal codes with parameters $[2n+1,k+1]$ and $[2n+2,k+2]$ from a given pair of self-orthogonal $[n,k]$ codes, and its link to quantum codes is considered. As an application, an optimal…
We prove that the only primes which may divide the order of the automorphism group of a putative binary self-dual doubly-even [120, 60, 24] code are 2, 3, 5, 7, 19, 23 and 29. Furthermore we prove that automorphisms of prime order $p \geq…
In this paper, we study self-dual codes over $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times (\mathbb{Z}_2+u\mathbb{Z}_2) $, where $u^2=0$. Three types of self-dual codes are defined. For each type, the possible values $\alpha,\beta$ such that there exists a code…
This paper presents four new classes of binary quantum codes with minimum dis- tance 3 and 4, namely Class-I, Class-II, Class-III and Class-IV. The classes Class-I and Class-II are constructed based on self-dual orientable embeddings of the…
We consider additive codes over GF(4) that are self-dual with respect to the Hermitian trace inner product. Such codes have a well-known interpretation as quantum codes and correspond to isotropic systems. It has also been shown that these…
