In the last three decades, several constructions of quantum error-correcting codes were presented in the literature. Among these codes, there are the asymmetric ones, i.e., quantum codes whose $Z$-distance $d_z$ is different from its…

Based on the group structure of a unitary Lie algebra, a scheme is provided to systematically and exhaustively generate quantum error correction codes, including the additive and nonadditive codes. The syndromes in the process of…
