Abstract

In this paper, we show how to construct non-binary entanglement-assisted stabilizer quantum codes by using pre-shared entanglement between the sender and receiver. We also give an algorithm to determine the circuit for non-binary entanglement-assisted stabilizer quantum codes and some illustrated examples. The codes we constructed do not require the dual-containing constraint, and many non-binary classical codes, like non-binary LDPC codes, which do not satisfy the condition, can be used to construct non-binary entanglement-assisted stabilizer quantum codes.

Entanglement-assisted codeword stabilized quantum codes

Jeonghwan Shin, Jun Heo, Todd A. Brun

Entangled qubits can increase the capacity of quantum error-correcting codes based on stabilizer codes. In addition, by using entanglement quantum stabilizer codes can be construct from classical linear codes that do not satisfy the dual-containing constraint. We show that it is possible to construct both additive and nonadditive quantum codes using the codeword stabilized quantum code framework. Nonadditive codes may offer improved performance over the more common stabilizer codes. Like other entanglement-assisted codes, the encoding procedure acts only on the qubits on Alice's side, and only these qubits are assumed to pass through the channel. However, errors in the codeword stabilized quantum code framework give rise to effective $Z$ errors on Bob's side. We use this scheme to construct entanglement-assisted nonadditive quantum codes, in particular, $($(5,16,2;1)$)$ and $($(7,4,5;4)$)$ codes.

Entanglement-Assisted Codes Outside the Stabilizer Framework

Jaszmine DeFranco, Andrew Nemec

We show how entanglement-assisted codes can be constructed from arbitrary quantum codes by associating them with quantum codes for erasure channels. If a subset of physical qubits is correctable for an erasure error, then it naturally forms the receiver's share of a bipartite state that can be used for entanglement-assisted communications, both in the noiseless and noisy ebit error models. In the case of degenerate codes, we show that the receiver's share of the bipartite state can sometimes be compressed, at the cost of potentially reduced error-correction ability in the noisy ebit error model. We also give examples of permutation-invariant and XP-stabilizer entanglement-assisted codes, the first outside of the stabilizer and codeword-stabilized frameworks.

Entanglement-assisted nonbinary quantum LDPC codes with finite field method

Junhu Shao, Lin Zhou, Ying Sun

Based on quantum stabilizer formalism over multi-level quantum system, non-binary entanglement-assisted quantum coding theory was described in this paper. Then two classes of 2r-ary quantum quasi-cyclic LDPC codes were constructed by using algebraic finite field method over Fqwith q = 2r. By iteratively decoded with q-ary sum-product algorithm (QSPA), the constructed 2r-ary quantum LDPC codes have shown significantly better performances than the present binary quantum LDPC codes.

Catalytic Quantum Error Correction

Todd A. Brun, Igor Devetak, Min-Hsiu Hsieh

We develop the theory of entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting (EAQEC) codes, a generalization of the stabilizer formalism to the setting in which the sender and receiver have access to preshared entanglement. Conventional stabilizer codes are equivalent to self-orthogonal symplectic codes. In contrast, EAQEC codes do not require self-orthogonality, which greatly simplifies their construction. We show how any classical binary or quaternary block code can be made into an EAQEC code. We provide a table of best known EAQEC codes with code length up to 10. With the self-orthogonality constraint removed, we see that the distance of an EAQEC code can be better than any standard quantum error-correcting code with the same fixed net yield. In a quantum computation setting, EAQEC codes give rise to catalytic quantum codes, which assume a subset of the qubits are noiseless. We also give an alternative construction of EAQEC codes by making classical entanglement-assisted codes coherent.

Constructions of q-ary entanglement-assisted quantum MDS codes with minimum distance greater than q+1

Jihao Fan, Hanwu Chen, Juan Xu

he entanglement-assisted stabilizer formalism provides a useful framework for constructing quantum error-correcting codes (QECC), which can transform arbitrary classical linear codes into entanglement-assisted quantum error correcting codes (EAQECCs) by using pre-shared entanglement between the sender and the receiver. In this paper, we construct five classes of entanglement-assisted quantum MDS (EAQMDS) codes based on classical MDS codes by exploiting one or more pre-shared maximally entangled states. We show that these EAQMDS codes have much larger minimum distance than the standard quantum MDS (QMDS) codes of the same length, and three classes of these EAQMDS codes consume only one pair of maximally entangled states.

General entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes

Min-Hsiu Hsieh, Igor Devetak, Todd A. Brun

Entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) make use of preexisting entanglement between the sender and receiver to boost the rate of transmission. It is possible to construct an EAQECC from any classical linear code, unlike standard QECCs, which can only be constructed from dual-containing codes. Operator quantum error-correcting codes allow certain errors to be corrected (or prevented) passively, reducing the complexity of the correction procedure. We combine these two extensions of standard quantum error correction into a unified entanglement-assisted quantum error-correction formalism. This new scheme, which we call entanglement-assisted operator quantum error correction (EAOQEC), is the most general and powerful quantum error-correcting technique known, retaining the advantages of both entanglement-assistance and passive correction. We present the formalism, show the considerable freedom in constructing EAOQECCs from classical codes, and demonstrate the construction with examples.
