  • Abstract
    New ternary codes of dimension 6 are presented which improve the bounds on optimal linear codes. These codes belong to the class of quasi-twisted (QT) codes, and have been constructed using a greedy algorithm. This work extends previous results on QT codes of dimension 6. In particular, several new two-weight QT codes are presented. Numerous new optimal codes which meet the Griesmer bound are given, as well as others which establish lower bounds on the maximum minimum distance
