Abstract

Let qq be a prime power. Let λ>1\lambda>1 be a divisor of q1q-1, and let τ>1\tau>1 and ρ>1\rho>1 be divisors of q+1q+1. Under certain conditions we prove that there exists an MDS stabilizer quantum code with length n=λτσn=\lambda \tau \sigma where 2σρ2\le \sigma \le \rho. This is a flexible construction, which includes new MDS parameters not known before.
