Protecting Information Against Computational Errors and Quantum Erasures via Concatenation

Quantum Physics 2013-05-21 v1

Abstract

In this work, we introduce a new concatenation scheme which aims at protecting information against the occurrence of both computational errors and quantum erasures. According to our scheme, the internal code must be a quantum loss-correcting code that does not perform measurements, while the external code must be a quantum error-correcting code. We illustrate the concatenation proposed with an example in which one qubit of information is protected against the occurrence of two erasures and one computational error.
