The joint weight enumerator of an LCD code and its dual
International audienceA binary linear code is called LCD if it intersects its dual trivially. We show that the coefficients of the joint weight enumerator of such a code with its dual satisfy linear constraints, leading to a new linear programming bound on the size of an LCD code of given length and minimum distance. In addition, we show that this polynomial is, in general, an invariant of a matrix group of dimension 4 and order 12. Also, we sketch a Gleason formula for this weight enumerator
