## New extremal binary self-dual codes of length $68$ from $R_2$-lifts of binary self-dual codes

 1 Department of Mathematics, Fatih University, 34500, Istanbul

Received  January 2013 Published  May 2013

A lift of binary self-dual codes to the ring $R_2$ is described. By using this lift, a family of self-dual codes over $R_2$ of length $17$ are constructed. Taking the binary images of these codes, extremal binary self-dual codes of length $68$ are obtained. For the first time in the literature, extremal binary codes of length $68$ with $\gamma=4$ and $\gamma = 6$ in $W_{68,2}$ have been obtained. In addition to these, six new codes with $\gamma = 0$ and fourteen new codes with $\gamma = 2$ in $W_{68,2}$ have also been found.
