Jacobi polynomials for singly even self-dual codes and the covering radius problems
Michio Ozeki · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 2002
In this correspondence, we develop a method to determine the complete coset weight distributions of the class of singly even self-dual binary codes. Our basic tool is the Jacobi polynomials for the code. It describes and controls the coset weight enumerators. As the results of our present method, we give the complete coset weight distributions of some extremal singly even self-dual codes of lengths 14, 22, 32, 36, and 40, respectively. We give the generator matrices of the used codes of lengths 36 and 40, respectively.
