A new upper bound for $A(19,6,8)$
Abstract
We compute Polak's bound A4(19,6,8) for binary constant weight codes, obtaining the numerical value $673.04001$. An exact rational certificate gives A4(19,6,8)≤ 673.0400143064802474039375132665301315202504, and hence A(19,6,8)≤ 673. This improves the upper bound $693$ listed in Brouwer's table. The certificate is verified by a separate program using exact rational arithmetic.
