We introduce an intrinsic formulation of quantum error correction based on representation theory, in which error-protection structure is encoded directly in a unitary group representation, rather than being tied to a particular embedding…
In 1997, Shor and Laflamme defined the weight enumerators for quantum error-correcting codes and derived a MacWilliams identity. We extend their work by introducing our double weight enumerators and complete weight enumerators. The…
We derive a relationship between two different notions of fidelity (entanglement fidelity and average fidelity) for a completely depolarizing quantum channel. This relationship gives rise to a quantum analog of the MacWilliams identities in…
We derive an explicit formula for the intrinsic MacWilliams transform for permutation-invariant qudit codes. Such codes naturally live in symmetric power representations, where the relevant error sectors are determined by the irreducible…
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…
As emerging quantum architectures evolve into heterogeneous networks combining different physical substrates, such as qubits for logic and higher-dimensional qudits for robust communication, the traditional scalar metrics of quantum error…
A permutation-invariant code on m qubits is a subspace of the symmetric subspace of the m qubits. We derive permutation-invariant codes that can encode an increasing amount of quantum information while suppressing leading order spontaneous…
A quantum code is a subspace of a Hilbert space of a physical system chosen to be correctable against a given class of errors, where information can be encoded. Ideally, the quantum code lies within the ground space of the physical system.…
In a recent paper [quant-ph/9610040], Shor and Laflamme define two ``weight enumerators'' for quantum error correcting codes, connected by a MacWilliams transform, and use them to give a linear-programming bound for quantum codes. We extend…
A permutationally invariant n-bit code for quantum error correction can be realized as a subspace stabilized by the non-Abelian group S_n. The code corresponds to bases for the trivial representation, and all other irreducible…
While quantum weight enumerators establish some of the best upper bounds on the minimum distance of quantum error-correcting codes, these bounds are not optimized to quantify the performance of quantum codes under the effect of arbitrary…
We introduce twisted unitary $t$-groups, a generalization of unitary $t$-groups under a twisting by an irreducible representation. We then apply representation theoretic methods to the Knill-Laflamme error correction conditions to show that…
We interpret the symmetrized weight enumerator of linear codes over finite commutative Frobenius rings as a summation over multisets and thereby provide a new proof of the MacWilliams identity for the symmetrized weight enumerator. The…
A permutation-invariant quantum code on $N$ qudits is any subspace stabilized by the matrix representation of the symmetric group $S_N$ as permutation matrices that permute the underlying $N$ subsystems. When each subsystem is a complex…
This article is a continuation of our recent work (Yin Chen and Runxuan Zhang, Shape enumerators of self-dual NRT codes over finite fields. SIAM J. Discrete Math. 38 (2024), no. 4, 2841-2854) in the setting of quantum error-correcting…
The number-theoretic codes are a class of codes defined by single or multiple congruences. These codes are mainly used for correcting insertion and deletion errors, and for correcting asymmetric errors. This paper presents a formula for a…
We derive bounds on general quantum error correcting codes against the displacement noise channel. The bounds limit the distances attainable by codes and also apply in an approximate setting. Our main result is a quantum analogue of the…
Error-correcting codes have an important role in data storage and transmission and in cryptography, particularly in the post-quantum era. Hermitian matrices over finite fields and equipped with the rank metric have the potential to offer…
