A kissing configuration of 352192 points in R^32 and A(32,8,8) >= 1712: explicit certificates

Authors/Creators

Description

Explicit, independently checkable certificate for the new lower bound τ32 ≥ 352192 on the kissing number in dimension 32 (previous best 347584, arXiv:2609.35051), obtained from a new binary constant-weight code showing A(32,8,8) ≥ 1712 (previous best 1676).

The configuration is the Edel–Rains–Sloane three-layer construction: 217 vectors from the Cheng–Sloane [32,17,8] code, 128 × 1712 even-sign (±2)8 vectors on the 1712 supports, and 1984 vectors (±4,±4,030). The archive contains the 1712 supports, the generator matrix, and verification programs; a brute-force check of all 6.20×1010 pairs gives maximum inner product 16 at squared norm 32.
