Self-dual codes over $\Z_2\times\Z_4$ are subgroups of $\Z_2^\alpha \times\Z_4^\beta$ that are equal to their orthogonal under an inner-product that relates to the binary Hamming scheme. Three types of self-dual codes are defined. For each…
In this work, we present a number of generator matrices of the form $[I_{2n} \ | \ \tau_k(v)],$ where $I_{kn}$ is the $kn \times kn$ identity matrix, $v$ is an element in the group matrix ring $M_2(R)G$ and where $R$ is a finite commutative…
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 $8,10,12$…
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…
We give constructions of self-dual and formally self-dual codes from group rings where the ring is a finite commutative Frobenius ring. We improve the existing construction given in \cite{Hurley1} by showing that one of the conditions given…
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…
We use symplectic self-dual additive codes over $\mathbb{F}_4$ obtained from metacirculant graphs to construct, for the first time, $[[\ell, 0, d ]]$ qubit codes with parameters $(\ell,d) \in \{(78, 20), (90, 21), (91, 22),…
A relationship between $s$-extremal singly even self-dual $[24k+8,12k+4,4k+2]$ codes and extremal doubly even self-dual $[24k+8,12k+4,4k+4]$ codes with covering radius meeting the Delsarte bound, is established. As an example of the…

In this paper, we determine all self-dual codes over $F_p+vF_p$ ($v^2=v$) in terms of self-dual codes over the finite field $F_p$ and give an explicit construction for self-dual codes over $F_p+vF_p$, where $p$ is a prime.
Let D be the support design of the minimum weight of an extremal binary doubly even self-dual [24m,12m,4m+4] code. In this note, we consider the case when D becomes a t-design with t \geq 6.
Let $m$ be an arbitrary positive integer and $D_{8m}$ be a dihedral group of order $8m$, i.e., $D_{8m}=\langle x,y\mid x^{4m}=1, y^2=1, yxy=x^{-1}\rangle$. Left ideals of the dihedral group algebra $\mathbb{F}_2[D_{8m}]$ are called binary…
A classical result of Conway and Pless is that a natural projection of the fixed code of an automorphism of odd prime order of a self-dual binary linear code is self-dual. In this paper we prove that the same holds for involutions under…
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…
Cyclic codes are an interesting type of linear codes and have wide applications in communication and storage systems due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. Inspired by the recent work on binary cyclic codes published in…
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…
In this work, we define composite matrices which are derived from group rings. We extend the idea of G-codes to composite G-codes. We show that these codes are ideals in a group ring, where the ring is a finite commutative Frobenius ring…
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…
The existence of an extremal self-dual binary linear code C of length 72 is a long-standing open problem. We continue the investigation of its automorphism group: looking at the combination of the subcodes fixed by different involutions and…
The automorphism group of a binary doubly-even self-dual code is always contained in the alternating group. On the other hand, given a permutation group $G$ of degree $n$ there exists a doubly-even self-dual $G$-invariant code if and only…
