Construction for both self-dual codes and LCD codes
share
From a given [n, k] code C, we give a method for constructing many [n, k] codes C' such that the hull dimensions of C and C' are identical. This method can be applied to constructions of both self-dual codes and linear complementary dual codes (LCD codes for short). Using the method, we construct 661 new inequivalent extremal doubly even [56, 28, 12] codes. Furthermore, constructing LCD codes by the method, we improve some of the previously known lower bounds on the largest minimum weights of binary LCD codes of length n=26,28 ≤ n ≤ 40.
