We study a new class of codes over Z_2 x Z_2 which we call L-codes. They arise as a natural fifth step in a series of analogies between Kleinian codes, binary codes, lattices and vertex operator algebras. This analogy will be explained in…
We give a classification of four-circulant singly even self-dual $[60,30,d]$ codes for $d=10$ and $12$. These codes are used to construct extremal singly even self-dual $[60,30,12]$ codes with weight enumerator for which no extremal singly…
In this paper we classify all extremal and $s$-extremal binary self-dual codes of length 38. There are exactly 2744 extremal $[38,19,8]$ self-dual codes, two $s$-extremal $[38,19,6]$ codes, and 1730 $s$-extremal $[38,19,8]$ codes. We obtain…
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…
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…

In this work, four circulant and quadratic double circulant (QDC) constructions are applied to the family of the rings R_k,m. Self-dual binary codes are obtained as the Gray images of self-dual QDC codes over R_k,m. Extremal binary…
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 $[44,22,14]$…
For lengths $64$ and $66$, we construct extremal singly even self-dual codes with weight enumerators for which no extremal singly even self-dual codes were previously known to exist. We also construct new $40$ inequivalent extremal doubly…
Self-dual codes have been studied actively because they are connected with mathematical structures including block designs and lattices and have practical applications in quantum error-correcting codes and secret sharing schemes.…
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…
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…
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 paper, we show that an extremal Type II $\ZZ_{2k}$-code of length $n$ dose not exist for all sufficiently large $n$ when $k=2,3,4,5,6$.
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.
