  • Abstract
    The Assmus-Mattson theorem is a method to find designs in linear codes over a finite field. The purpose of this paper is to give an analog of this theorem for Z4-codes by using the harmonic weight enumerator introduced by Bachoc. This theorem can find some 5-designs in the lifted Golay code over Z4 which were discovered previously by other methods
