Linear Codes over Z_4+uZ_4: MacWilliams identities, projections, and formally self-dual codes

Linear codes are considered over the ring Z_4+uZ_4, a non-chain extension of Z_4. Lee weights, Gray maps for these codes are defined and MacWilliams identities for the complete, symmetrized and Lee weight enumerators are proved. Two projections from Z_4+uZ_4 to the rings Z_4 and F_2+uF_2 are considered and self-dual codes over Z_4+uZ_4 are studied in connection with these projections. Finally three constructions are given for formally self-dual codes over Z_4+uZ_4 and their Z_4-images together with some good examples of formally self-dual Z_4-codes obtained through these constructions.

The automorphism group of the doubly-even [72,36,16] code can only be of order 1, 3 or 5

We prove that a putative $[72,36,16]$ code is not the image of linear code over $\ZZ_4$, $\FF_2 + u \FF_2$ or $\FF_2+v\FF_2$, thus proving that the extremal doubly even $[72,36,16]$-binary code cannot have an automorphism group containing a fixed point-free involution. Combining this with the previously proved result by Bouyuklieva that such a code cannot have an automorphism group containing an involution with fixed points, we conclude that the automorphism group of the $[72,36,16]$-code cannot be of even order, leaving 3 and 5 as the only possibilities.
