We present a unifying approach to quantum error correcting code design that encompasses additive (stabilizer) codes, as well as all known examples of nonadditive codes with good parameters. We use this framework to generate new codes with…
This paper presents conditions for constructing permutation-invariant quantum codes for deletion errors and provides a method for constructing them. Our codes give the first example of quantum codes that can correct two or more deletion…
We introduce Decision Tree Decoders (DTDs), which rely only on the sparsity of the binary check matrix, making them broadly applicable for decoding any quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) code and fault-tolerant quantum circuits. DTDs…
We prove new upper bounds on the size of families of vectors in $\Z_m^n$ with restricted modular inner products, when $m$ is a large integer. More formally, if $\vec{u}_1,\ldots,\vec{u}_t \in \Z_m^n$ and $\vec{v}_1,\ldots,\vec{v}_t \in…
We consider the problem of constructing deletion correcting codes over a binary alphabet and take a graph theoretic view. An $n$-bit $s$-deletion correcting code is an independent set in a particular graph. We propose constructing such a…
We consider codes over fixed alphabets against worst-case symbol deletions. For any fixed $k \ge 2$, we construct a family of codes over alphabet of size $k$ with positive rate, which allow efficient recovery from a worst-case deletion…
Collective coherent (CC) errors are inevitable, as every physical qubit undergoes free evolution under its kinetic Hamiltonian. These errors can be more damaging than stochastic Pauli errors because they affect all qubits coherently,…
We study the amount of reliable information that can be stored in a DNA-based storage system with noisy sequencing, where each codeword is composed of short DNA molecules. We analyze a concatenated coding scheme, where the outer code is…
We study the performance of quantum error correction codes (QECCs) under the detection-induced coherent error due to the imperfectness of practical implementations of stabilizer measurements, after running a quantum circuit. Considering the…
A single source network is said to be memory-free if all of the internal nodes (those except the source and the sinks) do not employ memory but merely send linear combinations of the symbols received at their incoming edges on their…
We show that a relatively simple reasoning using von Neumann entropy inequalities yields a robust proof of the quantum Singleton bound for quantum error-correcting codes (QECC). For entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes…
In this paper, we investigate binary reconstruction codes capable of correcting one deletion and one substitution. We define the \emph{single-deletion single-substitution ball} function $ \mathcal{B} $ as a mapping from a sequence to the…
In the Levenshtein's sequence reconstruction problem a codeword is transmitted through $N$ channels and in each channel a set of errors is introduced to the transmitted word. In previous works, the restriction that each channel provides a…
Locally decodable codes (LDCs) are error-correcting codes $C : \Sigma^k \to \Sigma^n$ that admit a local decoding algorithm that recovers each individual bit of the message by querying only a few bits from a noisy codeword. An important…
The rank modulation scheme has been proposed for efficient writing and storing data in non-volatile memory storage. Error-correction in the rank modulation scheme is done by considering permutation codes. In this paper we consider codes in…
We study the decoding transition for quantum error correcting codes with the help of a mapping to random-bond Wegner spin models. Families of quantum low density parity-check (LDPC) codes with a finite decoding threshold lead to both known…
Data processing lower bounds on the expected distortion are derived in the finite-alphabet semi-deterministic setting, where the source produces a deterministic, individual sequence, but the channel model is probabilistic, and the decoder…
In this paper, we study error exponents for a concatataned coding based class of DNA storage codes in which the number of reads performed can be variable. That is, the decoder can sequentially perform reads and choose whether to output the…
In this paper we introduce a universal operator theoretic framework for quantum fault tolerance. This incorporates a top-down approach that implements a system-level criterion based on specification of the full system dynamics, applied at…
In this paper, we develop the theory for constructing DNA cyclic codes of odd length over $R=\Z_4[u]/\langle u^2-1 \rangle$ based on the deletion distance. Firstly, we relate DNA pairs with a special 16 elements of ring $R$. Cyclic codes of…
