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 Quantum Codes from Evaluation and Matrix-Product Codes
Stabilizer codes obtained via CSS code construction and Steane's enlargement
of subfield-subcodes and matrix-product codes coming from generalized
Reed-Muller, hyperbolic and affine variety codes are studied. Stabilizer codes
with good quantum parameters are supplied, in particular, some binary codes of
lengths 127 and 128 improve the parameters of the codes in
http://www.codetables.de. Moreover, non-binary codes are presented either with
parameters better than or equal to the quantum codes obtained from BCH codes by
La Guardia or with lengths that can not be reached by them
