Tables of sphere packings and spherical codes
نویسنده
چکیده
Tke theta function of a sphere packing gives the number of centers at each distance from the origin. The theta functions of a number of important packings (An, D, , E,, the Leech lattice, and others) and tables of the first fifty or so of their coefficients are given in this paper.

Some ternary and quaternary codes and associated sphere packings
Tables are presented of good ternary and quaternary codes and they are used in the construction of dense sphere packings. Results include 1) tables of the best ternary and quaternary constacyclic codes (including cyclic codes) up to block length 50, 2 ) a class of optimal [ n , 21 codes over GF(q), 3) the ( U + U + w I2u + U I U ) construction, a new ternary code construction technique that can...
متن کاملConstructive spherical codes near the Shannon bound
Shannon gave a lower bound in 1959 on the binary rate of spherical codes of given minimum Euclidean distance ρ. Using nonconstructive codes over a finite alphabet, we give a lower bound that is weaker but very close for small values of ρ. The construction is based on the Yaglom map combined with some finite sphere packings obtained from nonconstructive codes for the Euclidean metric. Concatenat...
متن کاملAsymptotically dense spherical codes - Part II: Laminated spherical codes
New spherical codes called laminated spherical codes are constructed in dimensions 2–49 using a technique similar to the construction of laminated lattices. Each spherical code is recursively constructed from existing spherical codes in one lower dimension. Laminated spherical codes outperform the best known spherical codes in the minimum distance sense for many code sizes. The density of a lam...
متن کاملSphere Packings and Error-correcting Codes
Error-correcting codes are used in several constructions for packings of equal spheres in ^-dimensional Euclidean spaces E. These include a systematic derivation of many of the best sphere packings known, and construction of new packings in dimensions 9-15, 36, 40, 48, 60, and 2 for m g 6. Most of the new packings are nonlattice packings. These new packings increase the previously greatest know...
متن کاملDensity Doubling, Double-circulants, and New Sphere Packings
New nonlattice sphere packings in dimensions 20, 22, and 44–47 that are denser than the best previously known sphere packings were recently discovered. We extend these results, showing that the density of many sphere packings in dimensions just below a power of 2 can be doubled using orthogonal binary codes. This produces new dense sphere packings in Rn for n = 25, 26, . . . , 31 and 55, 56, . ...
