An entangled state is said to be $m$-uniform if the reduced density matrix of any $m$ qubits is maximally mixed. This is intimately linked to pure quantum error correction codes (QECCs), which allow not only to correct errors, but also to…
It is commonly believed that logical states of quantum error-correcting codes have to be highly entangled such that codes capable of correcting more errors require more entanglement to encode a qubit. Here, we show that the validity of this…
Quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) and decoherence-free subspace (DFS) codes provide active and passive means, respectively, to address certain types of errors that arise during quantum computation. The latter technique is suitable to…

We consider $(n,k)$ MDS-coded distributed storage over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with per-node storage $\alpha$ symbols. For the oblivious update problem, where a single message symbol changes and neither helpers nor the stale node know which, the…
We present a general framework of quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) as a subspace of a complex Hilbert space and the corresponding error models. Then we illustrate how QECCs can be constructed using techniques from algebraic coding…
Quantum error correction (QEC) is essential for building scalable quantum computers, but a lack of systematic, end-to-end evaluation methods makes it difficult to assess how different QEC codes perform under realistic conditions. The vast…
