We introduce a distance and duality preserving Gray map from R_{k,m} to F_2^{km} together with a Lee weight. After proving the MacWilliams identities for codes over R_{k,m} for all the relevant weight enumerators, we construct many binary self-dual codes as the Gray images of self-dual codes over R_{k,m}. In addition to many extremal binary self-dual codes obtained in this way, including a new construction for the extended binary Golay code, we find 175 new Type I binary self-dual codes of parameters [72,36,12] and 105 new Type II binary self-dual codes of parameter [72,36,12].", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-06-05T07:16:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "94B05", "94B99" ], "keywords": [ "construction", "extremal binary self-dual codes", "duality preserving gray map", "relevant weight enumerators", "extended binary golay code" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1406.1281T" } } }
