We introduce a consistent and efficient method to construct self-dual codes over $GF(q)$ with symmetric generator matrices from a self-dual code over $GF(q)$ of smaller length where $q equiv 1 pmod 4$. Using this method, we improve the best-known minimum weights of self-dual codes, which have not significantly improved for almost two decades. We focus on a class of self-dual codes, including double circulant codes. Using our method, called a `symmetric building-up construction, we obtain many new self-dual codes over $GF(13)$ and $GF(17)$ and improve the bounds of best-known minimum weights of self-dual codes of lengths up to 40. Besides, we compute the minimum weights of quadratic residue codes that were not known before. These are: a [20,10,10] QR self-dual code over $GF(23)$, two [24,12,12] QR self-dual codes over $GF(29)$ and $GF(41)$, and a [32,12,14] QR self-dual codes over $GF(19)$. They have the highest minimum weights so far.
BCH codes are an interesting class of cyclic codes due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In many cases, BCH codes are the best linear codes. However, the dimension and minimum distance of BCH codes have been seldom solved. Until no
This paper gives new methods of constructing {it symmetric self-dual codes} over a finite field $GF(q)$ where $q$ is a power of an odd prime. These methods are motivated by the well-known Pless symmetry codes and quadratic double circulant codes. Usi
In this paper, we give conditions for the existence of Hermitian self-dual $Theta-$cyclic and $Theta-$negacyclic codes over the finite chain ring $mathbb{F}_q+umathbb{F}_q$. By defining a Gray map from $R=mathbb{F}_q+umathbb{F}_q$ to $mathbb{F}_{q}^{
Self-dual codes over $Z_2timesZ_4$ are subgroups of $Z_2^alpha timesZ_4^beta$ that are equal to their orthogonal under an inner-product that relates to the binary Hamming scheme. Three types of self-dual codes are defined. For each type, the possible
Four recursive constructions of permutation polynomials over $gf(q^2)$ with those over $gf(q)$ are developed and applied to a few famous classes of permutation polynomials. They produce infinitely many new permutation polynomials over $gf(q^{2^ell})$
