On dual extremal maximal self-orthogonal codes of Type I-IV
Annika Meyer · Advances in Mathematics of Communications · 2010
For a Type $T \in${I, II, III, IV} of codes over finite fields and length $N$ where there exists no self-dual Type $T$ code of length $N$, upper bounds on the minimum weight of the dual code of a self-orthogonal Type $T$ code of length $N$ are given, allowing the notion of dual extremal codes. It is proven that for $T \in${II, III, IV} the Hamming weight enumerator of a dual extremal maximal self-orthogonal Type $T$ code of a given length is unique.
