We propose a new systematic construction of CSS-T codes from any given CSS code using a map $\phi$. When $\phi$ is the identity map $I$, we retrieve the construction of [1] and use it to prove the existence of asymptotically good binary…

The model of a topological quantum computer is a promising one due to its natural resistance to noise and other errors. Operations in such a computer are implemented by braiding the trajectories of anyons. While it is easy to understand how…

Quantum error correction and symmetry arise in many areas of physics, including many-body systems, metrology in the presence of noise, fault-tolerant computation, and holographic quantum gravity. Here we study the compatibility of these two…

Due to the high error rate of a qubit, detecting and correcting errors on it is essential for fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC). Among several FTQC techniques, lattice surgery (LS) using surface code (SC) is currently promising. To…

CSS-T codes were recently introduced as quantum error-correcting codes that respect a transversal gate. A CSS-T code depends on a pair $(C_1, C_2)$ of binary linear codes $C_1$ and $C_2$ that satisfy certain conditions. We prove that $C_1$…
