In [17] a novel method was established to estimate the minimum distance of primary affine variety codes and a thorough treatment of the Klein quartic led to the discovery of a family of primary codes with good parameters, the duals of which…
In this paper we construct several new families of quantum codes with good and asymptotically good parameters. These new quantum codes are derived from (classical) algebraic geometry (AG) codes by applying the Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS)…
Floquet codes are a recently discovered type of quantum error correction code. They can be thought of as generalising stabilizer codes and subsystem codes, by allowing the logical Pauli operators of the code to vary dynamically over time.…

Stabilizer codes form an important class of quantum error correcting codes which have an elegant theory, efficient error detection, and many known examples. Constructing stabilizer codes of length $n$ is equivalent to constructing subspaces…
Two methods for constructing quantum LDPC codes are presented. We explain how to overcome the difficulty of finding a set of low weight generators for the stabilizer group of the code. Both approaches are based on some graph representation…

We study the hardness of the problem of finding the distance of quantum error-correcting codes. The analogous problem for classical codes is known to be NP-hard, even in approximate form. For quantum codes, various problems related to…
We generalize a construction of non-binary quantum LDPC codes over $\F_{2^m}$ due to \cite{KHIS11a} and apply it in particular to toric codes. We obtain in this way not only codes with better rates than toric codes but also improve…
We introduce a class of cyclic quantum codes, basing the construction not on the simplicity of the stabilizers, but rather on the simplicity of preparation of a code state (at least in the absence of noise). We show how certain known codes,…
Entanglement-assisted quantum (QUENTA) codes are a subclass of quantum error-correcting codes which use entanglement as a resource. These codes can provide error correction capability higher than the codes derived from the traditional…
There are well known necessary and sufficient conditions for a quantum code to correct a set of errors. We study weaker conditions under which a quantum code may correct errors with probabilities that may be less than one. We work with…
A permutation-invariant code on m qubits is a subspace of the symmetric subspace of the m qubits. We derive permutation-invariant codes that can encode an increasing amount of quantum information while suppressing leading order spontaneous…
We consider the problem of a generic stabilizer Hamiltonian under local, incoherent Pauli errors. Using two different approaches -- (i) Haah's polynomial formalism arXiv:1204.1063 and (ii) the homological perspective on CSS codes -- we…
For $(n,d)= (66,17),(78,19)$ and $(94,21)$, we construct quantum $[[n,0,d]]$ codes which improve the previously known lower bounds on the largest minimum weights among quantum codes with these parameters. These codes are constructed from…
