On the notion of Jacobi polynomials for codes (Q4357734)

The connection between theta functions and weight enumerators is well known [see e.g. \textit{W. Ebeling}, Lattices and codes. Braunschweig: Vieweg Verlag (1994; Zbl 0805.11048)]. The author introduces Jacobi polynomials in correspondence to Jacobi theta functions [see \textit{M. Eichler} and \textit{D. Zagier}, The theory of Jacobi forms. Boston etc.: Birkhäuser Verlag (1985; Zbl 0554.10018)]. The Jacobi polynomial of the code \(C\subseteq \mathbb F_q^n\) with respect to \(v\in \mathbb F_q^n\) is the polynomial \[ \text{Jac} (C,v\mid X,Z):= \sum_{u\in C}X^{u*u} Z^{u*v}, \] where \(u*v\) is number of components of \(u,v\) with \(u_iv_i\neq 0\). The author proves an identity which generalizes the MacWilliams identity and some further properties of these polynomials.
