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.…
We prove configuration results for extremal Type II codes, analogous to the configuration results of Ozeki and of the second author for extremal Type II lattices. Specifically, we show that for $n \in \{8, 24, 32, 48, 56, 72, 96\}$ every…
We show that no projective 16-divisible binary linear code of length 131 exists. This implies several improved upper bounds for constant-dimension codes, used in random linear network coding, and partial spreads.
In this note, we demonstrate that every binary doubly even self-dual code of length $40$ can be realized as the residue code of some extremal Type II $\mathbb{Z}_4$-code. As a consequence, it is shown that there are at least $94356$…
The existence of numerical solutions to a fourth order singular boundary value problem arising in the theory of epitaxial growth is studied. An iterative numerical method is applied on a second order nonlinear singular boundary value…
In this note, we give a new nonexistence result of ternary extremal self-dual codes.
For lengths $36$, $48$ and $60$, we construct new ternary near-extremal self-dual codes with weight enumerators for which no ternary near-extremal self-dual codes were previously known to exist.
We prove that a putative $[72,36,16]$ code is not the image of linear code over $\ZZ_4$, $\FF_2 + u \FF_2$ or $\FF_2+v\FF_2$, thus proving that the extremal doubly even $[72,36,16]$-binary code cannot have an automorphism group containing a…
Binary optimal codes often contain optimal or near-optimal subcodes. In this paper we show that this is true for the family of self-dual codes. One approach is to compute the optimum distance profiles (ODPs) of linear codes, which was…
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 reside codes over the ring F2 +uF2 +u^2F2 with u^3 = u are considered. A duality and distance preserving Gray map from F2 + uF2 + u^2F2 to (F_2)^3 is defined. By using quadratic double circulant, quadratic bordered…
We solve the problem of the classification of perfect quantum codes. We prove that the only nontrivial perfect quantum codes are those with the parameters . There exist no other nontrivial perfect quantum codes.
The weight distribution of the binary self-dual $[128,64]$ code being the extended code $C^{*}$ of the code $C$ spanned by the incidence vectors of the blocks of the polarity design in $PG(6,2)$ [11] is computed. It is shown also that…
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.
For lengths 8,16 and 24, it is known that there is an extremal Type II Z2k-code for every positive integer k. In this paper, we show that there is an extremal Type II Z2k-code of lengths 32,40,48,56 and 64 for every positive integer k. For…
We prove the non existence of quantum caps of sizes 37 and 39. This completes the spectrum of quantum caps in PG(4, 4). This also implies the non existence of linear [[37,27,4]] and [[39,29,4]]-codes. The problem of the existence of non…
1. There is no existing any quadratic interval $\eta_{n}:=(n^{2},(n+1)^{2}],$ which contains less than 2 prime numbers. The number of prime numbers within $\eta_{n}$ goes averagely linear with n to infinity. 2. The exact law of the number…
The parameters 2-(36,15,6) are the smallest parameters of symmetric designs for which a complete classification up to isomorphism is yet unknown. Bouyukliev, Fack and Winne classified all 2-$(36,15,6)$ designs that admit an automorphism of…
A classification of extremal double circulant self-dual codes of lengths up to $88$ is known. We give a classification of extremal double circulant self-dual codes of lengths $90,92,94$ and $96$. We also classify double circulant self-dual…
A simple binary matroid, viewed as a restriction of a finite binary projective geometry $PG(n-1,2)$, is $I_{1,t}$-free if for any rank-$t$ flat of $PG(n-1,2)$, its intersection with the matroid is not a one-element set. In this paper, we…
