Abstract

Recently,an optimal formally self-dual Z4-code of length 14 and minimum Lee weight 6 has been found using the double circulant construction by Duursma,Greferath and Schmidt. In this paper,we classify all optimal double circulant Z4-codes up to length 32. In addition, double circulant codes with the largest minimum Lee weights for this class of codes are presented for lengths up to 32.
