Generating generalized necklaces and new quasi-cyclic codes

Abstract

In many cases there is a need of exhaustive lists of combinatorial objects of a given type. We consider generation of all inequivalent polynomials from which defining polynomials for constructing quasi-cyclic (QC) codes are to be chosen. Using these defining polynomials we construct 34 new good QC codes over GF(11) and 36 such codes over GF(13).
