Construction of quasi-cyclic self-dual codes
There is a one-to-one correspondence between -quasi-cyclic codes over a
finite field and linear codes over a ring . Using this correspondence, we prove that every
-quasi-cyclic self-dual code of length over a finite field
can be obtained by the {\it building-up} construction, provided
that char or , is a prime , and
is a primitive element of . We determine possible weight
enumerators of a binary -quasi-cyclic self-dual code of length
(with a prime) in terms of divisibility by . We improve the result of
[3] by constructing new binary cubic (i.e., -quasi-cyclic codes of length
) optimal self-dual codes of lengths (Type I), 54 and
66. We also find quasi-cyclic optimal self-dual codes of lengths 40, 50, and
60. When , we obtain a new 8-quasi-cyclic self-dual code
over and a new 6-quasi-cyclic self-dual code over
. When , we find a new 4-quasi-cyclic self-dual
code over and a new 6-quasi-cyclic self-dual code
over .Comment: 25 pages, 2 tables; Finite Fields and Their Applications, 201
New cubic self-dual codes of length 54, 60 and 66
We study the construction of quasi-cyclic self-dual codes, especially of
binary cubic ones. We consider the binary quasi-cyclic codes of length 3\ell
with the algebraic approach of [9]. In particular, we improve the previous
results by constructing 1 new binary [54, 27, 10], 6 new [60, 30, 12] and 50
new [66, 33, 12] cubic self-dual codes. We conjecture that there exist no more
binary cubic self-dual codes with length 54, 60 and 66.Comment: 8 page
Quasi-Cyclic Complementary Dual Code
LCD codes are linear codes that intersect with their dual trivially. Quasi
cyclic codes that are LCD are characterized and studied by using their
concatenated structure. Some asymptotic results are derived. Hermitian LCD
codes are introduced to that end and their cyclic subclass is characterized.
Constructions of QCCD codes from codes over larger alphabets are given
