Construction of extremal Type II $\mathbb{Z}_{2k}$-codes (2201.01439v2)
Published 5 Jan 2022 in cs.IT, math.CO, and math.IT
Abstract: We give methods for constructing many self-dual $\mathbb{Z}m$-codes and Type II $\mathbb{Z}{2k}$-codes of length $2n$ starting from a given self-dual $\mathbb{Z}m$-code and Type II $\mathbb{Z}{2k}$-code of length $2n$, respectively. As an application, we construct extremal Type II $\mathbb{Z}{2k}$-codes of length $24$ for $k=4,5,\ldots,20$ and extremal Type II $\mathbb{Z}{2k}$-codes of length $32$ for $k=4,5,\ldots,10$. We also construct new extremal Type II $\mathbb{Z}_4$-codes of lengths $56$ and $64$.
