A Note on Quantum Errors and Their Correction

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

This note presents a few observations on the nonlocal nature of quantum errors and the expected performance of the recently proposed quantum error-correction codes that are based on the assumption that the errors are either bit-flip or phase-flip or both.
