We present a new propagation rule for CSS codes. Starting with a CSS code $[\![n,k,d]\!]_q$, we construct a CSS code with parameters $[\![n-2,k,d-1]\!]_q$. In general, one would only obtain a code with parameters $[\![n-2,k,d-2]\!]_q$. The…
We construct a three-dimensional Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) stabilizer code on the Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) lattice. Physical qubits reside on the edges of the lattice (coordination $K=12$); X-stabilizers act on octahedral voids and…
We introduce a high-level graphical framework for designing and analysing quantum error correcting codes, centred on what we term the coherent parity check (CPC). The graphical formulation is based on the diagrammatic tools of the…
The color code model is a crucial instance of a Calderbank--Shor--Steane (CSS)-type topological quantum error-correcting code, which notably supports transversal implementation of the full Clifford group. Its robustness against local noise…
Lifted codes are a class of evaluation codes attracting more attention due to good locality and intermediate availability. In this work we introduce and study quadratic-curve-lifted Reed-Solomon (QC-LRS) codes, where the codeword symbols…
We show that given an instance of a bivariate bicycle (BB) code, it is possible to generate an infinite sequence of new BB codes using increasingly large covering graphs of the original code's Tanner graph. When a BB code has a Tanner graph…
We introduce and analyse an efficient decoder for the quantum Tanner codes of that can correct adversarial errors of linear weight. Previous decoders for quantum low-density parity-check codes could only handle adversarial errors of weight…
In this paper, we construct the first families of asymmetric quantum convolutional codes (AQCC)'s. These new AQCC's are constructed by means of the CSS-type construction applied to suitable families of classical convolutional codes, which…
Product constructions constitute a powerful method for generating quantum CSS codes, yielding celebrated examples such as toric codes and asymptotically good low-density parity check (LDPC) codes. Since a CSS code is fully described by a…

Subsystem codes protect quantum information by encoding it in a tensor factor of a subspace of the physical state space. Subsystem codes generalize all major quantum error protection schemes, and therefore are especially versatile. This…
Linear codes over finite fields parameterized by functions have proven to be a powerful tool in coding theory, yielding optimal and few-weight codes with significant applications in secret sharing, authentication codes, and association…
We continue the study of classical and quantum low-density parity check (LDPC) codes from a physical perspective. We focus on constructive approaches and formulate a general framework for systematically constructing codes with various…
Quantum information is fragile and must be protected by a quantum error-correcting code for large-scale practical applications. Recently, highly efficient quantum codes have been discovered which require a high degree of spatial…
This paper develops a two-branch multiplicative-coset construction for regular Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) quantum low-density parity-check base matrices. For a target column weight \(J\) and an even row weight \(L\), the method reduces…
A tiling of the $n$-dimensional Hamming cube gives rise to a perfect code (according to a given metric) if the basic tile is a metric ball. We are concerned with metrics on the $n$-dimensional Hamming cube which are determined by a weight…

With recent breakthroughs in the construction of good qLDPC codes and nearly good qLTCs, the study of (co)homological invariants of quantum code complexes, which fundamentally underlie their logical operations, has become evidently…
In this paper, on one hand, a class of linear codes with one or two weights is obtained. Based on these linear codes, we construct two classes of constant composition codes, which includes optimal constant composition codes depending on…
