This length is the smallest length for which no extremal doubly even self-dual code of length n 0 mod 24 has been constructed. 1 Introduction As described in 10 self-dual codes are an important class of linear codes for both theoretical and practical reasons. It is a fundamental problem to classify self-dual codes of modest length and determine the largest minimum weight among self-dual codes of that length. By the Gleason-Pierce theorem there are nontrivial divisible self-dual codes over Fq for q 2 3 and 4 only where Fq denotes the finite field of order q and this is one of the reasons why much work has been done concerning self-dual codes over these fields. A binary self-dual code C of length n is a code over F2 satisfying C C where the dual code C of C is defined as C x 2 Fn I x y 0 for all y 2 Cg under the standard inner product x y. A self-dual code C is doubly even if all codewords of C have weight divisible by four and singly even if there is at least one codeword of weight 2 mod 4 . Note that a doubly even self-dual code of length n exists if and only if n is divisible by eight. It was shown in 8 that the minimum weight d of a doubly even self-dual code of length n is bounded by d 4 n 24 4. A doubly even self-dual code meeting this upper bound is called extremal. The existence of extremal doubly even self-dual codes is known for the following lengths n 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 80 88 104 136 THE ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF COMBINATORICS 15 2008 N33 1 and their existence was already known some 25 years ago see 7 Fig.
