Type II Self-Dual Codes over Finite Rings and Even Unimodular Lattices

In this paper, we investigate self-dual codes over finite rings, specifically the ring of integers modulo 2m. Type II codes over are introduced as self-dual codes with Euclidean weights which are a multiple of 2m +1. We describe a relationship between Type II codes and even unimodular lattices. This relationship provides much information on Type II codes. Double circulant Type II codes over are also studied.     

Higher Power Residue Codes

For certain primeslandp, and characters χ:F*_p→F*_l², we construct codesWof lengthp+ 1 overF_l²which are linear overF_l, but not overF_l², and which are invariant under a monomial action of the group SL(2,p). We consider the cases of cubic and quartic characters in detail and use theWto construct linear codes overF_lin these cases.     

Near-Extremal Formally Self-Dual Even Codes of Lengths 24 and 32

The weight enumerator of a formally self-dual even code is obtained by the Gleason theorem. Recently, Kim and Pless gave some restrictions on the possible weight enumerators of near-extremal formally self-dual even codes of length divisible by eight. In this paper, the weight enumerators for which there is a near-extremal formally self-dual even code are completely determined for lengths 24 and 32, by constructing new near-extremal formally self-dual codes. We also give a classification of near- extremal double circulant codes of lengths 24 and 32. Communicated by: P. Fitzpatrick     

On the Covering Radius of Ternary Extremal Self-Dual Codes

In this paper, we investigate the covering radius of ternary extremal self-dual codes. The covering radii of all ternary extremal self-dual codes of lengths up to 20 were previously known. The complete coset weight distributions of the two inequivalent extremal self-dual codes of length 24 are determined. As a consequence, it is shown that every extremal ternary self-dual code of length up to 24 has covering radius which meets the Delsarte bound. The first example of a ternary extremal self-dual code with covering radius which does not meet the Delsarte bound is also found. It is worth mentioning that the found code is of length 32.     

Symplectic group lattices

Let be an odd prime. It is known that the symplectic group has two (algebraically conjugate) irreducible representations of degree realized over , where . We study the integral lattices related to these representations for the case . (The case has been considered in a previous paper.) We show that the class of invariant lattices contains either unimodular or -modular lattices. These lattices are explicitly constructed and classified. Gram matrices of the lattices are given, using a discrete analogue of Maslov index.

Classification of Formally Self-Dual Even Codes of Lengths up to 16

In this note, we give the complete classification of binary formally self-dual even codes of lengths 10, 12, 14 and 16. There are exactly fourteen, 29, 99 and 914 inequivalent such codes of lengths 10, 12, 14 and 16, respectively. This completes the classification of formally self-dual even codes of lengths up to 16. The first example of formally self-dual even code with a trivial automorphism group is also found. This shows that 16 is the smallest length for which there is a formally self-dual even code with a trivial automorphism group.     

Extremal Type II Z4-codes constructed from binary doubly even self-dual codes of length 40

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 $94356$ inequivalent extremal Type II ${\mathbb{Z}}_4$-codes of length $40$.

Extremal Ternary Self-Dual Codes Constructed from Negacirculant Matrices

In this paper, a construction of ternary self-dual codes based on negacirculant matrices is given. As an application, we construct new extremal ternary self-dual codes of lengths 32, 40, 44, 52 and 56. Our approach regenerates all the known extremal self-dual codes of lengths 36, 48, 52 and 64. New extremal ternary quasi-twisted self-dual codes are also constructed. Supported by an NSERC discovery grant and a RTI grant. Supported by an NSERC discovery grant and a RTI grant.

Structure Theorems for Group Ring Codes with an Application to Self-Dual Codes

Using ideas from the cohomology of finite groups, an isomorphism is established between a group ring and the direct sum of twisted group rings. This gives a decomposition of a group ring code into twisted group ring codes. In the abelian case the twisted group ring codes are (multi-dimensional) constacyclic codes. We use the decomposition to prove that, with respect to the Euclidean inner product, there are no self-dual group ring codes when the group is the direct product of a 2-group and a group of odd order, and the ring is a field of odd characteristic or a certain modular ring. In particular, there are no self-dual abelian codes over the rings indicated. Extensions of these results to non-Euclidean inner products are briefly discussed.     

Globally Irreducible Representations of Finite Groups and Integral Lattices

The notion of globally irreducible representations of finite groups has been introduced by B. H. Gross, in order to explain new series of Euclidean lattices discovered recently by N. Elkies and T. Shioda using Mordell--Weil lattices of elliptic curves. In this paper we first give a necessary condition for global irreducibility. Then we classify all globally irreducible representations of L ₂(q) and ²B₂(q), and of the majority of the 26 sporadic finite simple groups. We also exhibit one more globally irreducible representation, which is related to the Weil representation of degree (pⁿ-1)/2 of the symplectic group Sp_2n(p) (p 1 (mod 4) is a prime). As a consequence, we get a new series of even unimodular lattices of rank 2(pⁿ–1). A summary of currently known globally irreducible representations is given.     

Self-Orthogonal 3-(56,12,65) Designs and Extremal Doubly-Even Self-Dual Codes of Length 56

In this paper, we show that the code generated by the rows of a block-point incidence matrix of a self-orthogonal 3-(56,12,65) design is a doubly-even self-dual code of length 56. As a consequence, it is shown that an extremal doubly-even self-dual code of length 56 is generated by the codewords of minimum weight. We also demonstrate that there are more than one thousand inequivalent extremal doubly-even self-dual [56,28,12] codes. This result shows that there are more than one thousand non-isomorphic self-orthogonal 3-(56,12,65) designs. AMS Classification: 94B05, 05B05     

Binary Optimal Odd Formally Self-Dual Codes

In this paper, we study binary optimal odd formallyself-dual codes. All optimal odd formally self-dual codes areclassified for length up to 16. The highest minimum weight ofany odd formally self-dual codes of length up to 24 is determined. We also show that there is a unique linearcode for parameters [16, 8, 5] and [22, 11, 7], up to equivalence.     

Higher Weights for Ternary and Quaternary Self-Dual Codes*

We study higher weights applied to ternary and quaternary self-dual codes. We give lower bounds on the second higher weight and compute the second higher weights for optimal codes of length less than 24. We relate the joint weight enumerator with the higher weight enumerator and use this relationship to produce Gleason theorems. Graded rings of the higher weight enumerators are also determined.

Extremal Self-Dual [50, 25, 10] Codes with Automorphisms of Order 3 and Quasi-Symmetric 2-(49, 9,6) Designs

Five non-isomorphic quasi-symmetric 2-(49, 9, 6) designs are known. They arise from extremal self-dual [50, 25, 10] codes with a certain weight enumerator. Four of them have an automorphism of order 3 fixing two points. In this paper, it is shown that there are exactly 48 inequivalent extremal self-dual [50, 25, 10] code with this weight enumerator and an automorphism of order 3 fixing two points. 44 new quasi-symmetric 2-(49, 9, 6) designs with an automorphism of order 3 are constructed from these codes.
