Abstract

The subject of this work is self-dual Type I Z 4 -codes of length 48. It is known that the usual upper bound for the minimum Euclidean weight for the self-dual Z 4 -codes cannot be achieved for this length and type of codes; i.e., extremal Type I Z 4 -codes of length 48 do not exist. We are therefore looking for near-extremal Type I Z 4 -codes of length 48. The only known Type I near-extremal Z 4 -code of length 48 was constructed in 2015 by M. Harada. We adapted a known pseudo-random search method and found at least two new near-extremal Type I Z 4 -codes of length 48. These codes are the first Type I near-extremal Z 4 -codes with a residue code of minimum weight 8.
