Constructions and decoding procedures for quantum CSS codes

Quantum Physics 2025-10-03 v2

Abstract

This article presents new constructions of quantum error correcting Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS for short) codes. These codes are mainly obtained by Sloane's classical combinations of linear codes applied here to the case of self-orthogonal linear codes. A new algebraic decoding technique is also introduced. This technique is exemplified on CSS codes obtained from BCH, Reed-Muller and projective geometry codes.
