Fault-tolerant quantum computation demands significant resources: large numbers of physical qubits must be checked for errors repeatedly to protect quantum data as logic gates are implemented in the presence of noise. We demonstrate that an…

We construct a family of constant-rate highly-symmetric self-dual qLDPC codes on high dimensional expanders. This is the first self-dual code constructed on high dimensional expanders and also the first such code with a rich (e.g.…
