Binary Self-Dual Codes of Lenght 38



We present some information and generator matrices for all inequivalent binary [38,19] self-dual codes. The classification method is presented in:

Stefka Bouyuklieva, Iliya Bouyukliev: " On the Classification of Binary Self-Dual Codes" CoRR abs/1106.5930 : (2011) http://arxiv.org/abs/1106.5930. See the paper here .

The generator matrices are saved in three different text files in the form presented in this paper You can download the files with generator matrices from here (file1) , here (file2) and here (file3) .

Information for the automorphism groups and the number of codewords with weights 2, 4, 6 and 8 is saved in a text file in the following format:

?19 38 2 1 63777066403145711616000
19 171 969 3876

This means
?k n p N |Aut|
A2 A4 A6 A8
where k is the dimension, n is the length of the codes, p is the characteristic of the field, Ai is the number of codewords of weight i in the corresponding code.
You can download this file from here . We use these parameters to check the mass formulas.
