Best Known (69, 260, s)-Nets in Base 4

Digital (69, 260, 66)-net over F₄, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (49, 260, 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 (69, 260, 99)-net over F₄, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (61, 260, 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 (69, 260, 350)-net over F₄, because

3 times m-reduction [i] would yield digital (69, 257, 350)-net over F₄, but
- extracting embedded orthogonal array [i] would yield linear OA(4²⁵⁷, 350, F₄, 188) (dual of [350, 93, 189]-code), but
  - residual code [i] would yield OA(4⁶⁹, 161, S₄, 47), but
    - 1 times truncation [i] would yield OA(4⁶⁸, 160, S₄, 46), but
      - the linear programming bound shows that MÂ â‰¥ 10178 629433 929836 486543 068800 140163 269042 043780 022134 664338 507769 510819 622533 364638 543087 235674 689592 586232 641534 482804 572425 994198 736437 248000 / 113203 572801 045878 145860 058818 437218 882917 411800 440768 742206 357256 206420 022337 868833 760142 804084 942919 > 4⁶⁸ [i]

There is no (69, 260, 454)-net in base 4, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (69, 259, 454)-net in base 4, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 4^mÂ â‰¥ 1 007897 068205 513173 938209 265293 853336 796931 071892 856675 018824 745112 389142 251159 196602 784949 113891 769319 008040 294053 347569 700081 308375 075975 919440 950158 896832 > 4²⁵⁹ [i]
