Lattices of type $A_n$, $D_n$, $E_n$ and codes

Abstract

We propose a construction of lattices from codes corresponding to lattices of type $A_n$, $D_n$ and $E_n$. This construction is a generalization of construction A of lattices from $p$-ary codes corresponding to a lattice of type $A_{p-1}$. Moreover, we introduce some examples of application of lattices from the construction to Hilbert modular form.
