Abstract :
In this paper, the best parameters of quaternary additive codes of small length are determined using the geometric description. Only one open question remains for length les 13. Among the results obtained in this work are the nonexistence of [12, 7, 5]-codes and [12, 4.5, 7]-codes as well as the existence of a [13, 7.5, 5]-code.
