          Abstract

          We study, by means of the stabilizer formalism, a quantum error correcting code which is alternative to the standard block codes since it embeds a qubit into a qudit. The code exploits the non-commutative geometry of discrete phase space to protect the qubit against both amplitude and phase errors. The performance of such code is evaluated on Weyl channels by means of the entanglement fidelity as function of the error probability. A comparison with standard block codes, like five and seven qubit stabilizer codes, shows its superiority.

          Mixed State Entanglement and Quantum Error Correction

          William Wootters, John Smolin, David P. DiVincenzo … (1996)
          Entanglement purification protocols (EPP) and quantum error-correcting codes (QECC) provide two ways of protecting quantum states from interaction with the environment. In an EPP, perfectly entangled pure states are extracted, with some yield D, from a mixed state M shared by two parties; with a QECC, an arbi- trary quantum state \(|\xi\rangle\) can be transmitted at some rate Q through a noisy channel \(\chi\) without degradation. We prove that an EPP involving one- way classical communication and acting on mixed state \(\hat{M}(\chi)\) (obtained by sharing halves of EPR pairs through a channel \(\chi\)) yields a QECC on \(\chi\) with rate \(Q=D\), and vice versa. We compare the amount of entanglement E(M) required to prepare a mixed state M by local actions with the amounts \(D_1(M)\) and \(D_2(M)\) that can be locally distilled from it by EPPs using one- and two-way classical communication respectively, and give an exact expression for \(E(M)\) when \(M\) is Bell-diagonal. While EPPs require classical communica- tion, QECCs do not, and we prove Q is not increased by adding one-way classical communication. However, both D and Q can be increased by adding two-way com- munication. We show that certain noisy quantum channels, for example a 50% depolarizing channel, can be used for reliable transmission of quantum states if two-way communication is available, but cannot be used if only one-way com- munication is available. We exhibit a family of codes based on universal hash- ing able toachieve an asymptotic \(Q\) (or \(D\)) of 1-S for simple noise models, where S is the error entropy. We also obtain a specific, simple 5-bit single- error-correcting quantum block code. We prove that {\em iff} a QECC results in high fidelity for the case of no error the QECC can be recast into a form where the encoder is the matrix inverse of the decoder.

              Good Quantum Error-Correcting Codes Exist

              , (2009)
              A quantum error-correcting code is defined to be a unitary mapping (encoding) of k qubits (2-state quantum systems) into a subspace of the quantum state space of n qubits such that if any t of the qubits undergo arbitrary decoherence, not necessarily independently, the resulting n qubits can be used to faithfully reconstruct the original quantum state of the k encoded qubits. Quantum error-correcting codes are shown to exist with asymptotic rate k/n = 1 - 2H(2t/n) where H(p) is the binary entropy function -p log p - (1-p) log (1-p). Upper bounds on this asymptotic rate are given.
