We develop a theory based on quasi-geometric (QG) approach to transform a small number of qubits into a larger number of error-correcting qubits by considering four different cases. More precisely, we use the 2-dimensional quasi-orthogonal…

Quantum error correction (QEC) is often implemented on hardware that experiences biased noise, where dephasing errors occur more frequently than other errors. This has motivated many recent efforts to develop bias-tailored QEC codes, such…
