Abstract
A class of self-dual quasi-abelian codes of index 2 over any finite field <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$F$ </tex-math></inline-formula> is introduced. By counting the number of such codes and the number of the codes in this class whose relative minimum weights are small, such codes are proved to be asymptotically good provided −1 is a square in <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$F$ </tex-math></inline-formula> . Moreover, a class of self-orthogonal quasi-abelian codes of index 2 is defined; and such codes always exist. In a way similar to that for self-dual quasi-abelian codes of index 2, it is proved that these self-orthogonal quasi-abelian codes of index 2 are asymptotically good.
