Topological quantum error-correcting codes are defined by geometrically local checks on a two-dimensional lattice of quantum bits (qubits), making them particularly well suited for fault-tolerant quantum information processing. Here, we…
We prove a new bound for the minimum distance of geometric Goppa codes that generalizes two previous improved bounds. We include examples of the bound to one and two point codes over both the Suzuki and Hermitian curves.
In this paper, we propose a new class of bit flipping algorithms for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over the binary symmetric channel (BSC). Compared to the regular (parallel or serial) bit flipping algorithms, the proposed…
It is shown that subclasses of separable binary Goppa codes, $\Gamma(L,G)$ - codes, with $L=\{\alpha \in GF(2^{2l}):G(\alpha)\neq 0 \}$ and special Goppa polynomials G(x) can be presented as a chain of embedded codes. The true minimal…

We consider the problem of optimally decoding a quantum error correction code -- that is to find the optimal recovery procedure given the outcomes of partial "check" measurements on the system. In general, this problem is NP-hard. However,…
