TITLE: Self-orthogonal error-correcting codes
ABSTRACT:
Error-correcting codes are mathematical structures commonly used in
information technology to reduce loss from transmitting data over a
channel with noise. I will describe how to generate isomorphism
classes of certain types of error-correcting codes, after giving
definitions and examples. With time Sloane's construction A, relating
binary codes to lattices, will be discussed.
