Best Known (66, 246, s)-Nets in Base 4

Digital (66, 246, 66)-net over F₄, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (49, 246, 66)-net over F₄, using
- net from sequence [i] based on digital (49, 65)-sequence over F₄, using
  - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₄ with g(F) = 49 and N(F) ≥ 66, using
    - T₆ from the second tower of function fields by GarcÃa and Stichtenoth over F₄ [i]

Digital (66, 246, 99)-net over F₄, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (61, 246, 99)-net over F₄, using
- net from sequence [i] based on digital (61, 98)-sequence over F₄, using
  - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₄ with g(F) = 61 and N(F) ≥ 99, using
    - Drinfeld modules of rank 1 [i]

There is no digital (66, 246, 331)-net over F₄, because

extracting embedded orthogonal array [i] would yield linear OA(4²⁴⁶, 331, F₄, 180) (dual of [331, 85, 181]-code), but
- residual code [i] would yield OA(4⁶⁶, 150, S₄, 45), but

There is no (66, 246, 435)-net in base 4, because

the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 4^mÂ â‰¥ 12954 977528 030360 040019 964323 580378 134179 736182 976177 794103 680639 284168 811883 761535 568682 030897 170781 016382 037647 317112 465838 305553 594091 742223 739960 > 4²⁴⁶ [i]
