Asymmetric quantum convolutional codes

Abstract

In this paper, we construct the first families of asymmetric quantum convolutional codes (AQCC)'s. These new AQCC's are constructed by means of the CSS-type construction applied to suitable families of classical convolutional codes, which are also constructed here. The new codes have noncatastrophic generator matrices and they present great asymmetry. Since our constructions are performed algebraically, it is possible to derive several families of such codes and not only codes with specific parameters. Additionally, several different types of such codes are obtained.

Classical and Quantum Convolutional Codes Derived From Algebraic Geometry Codes

Francisco Revson F. Pereira, Giuliano G. La Guardia, Francisco de Assis

In this paper, we construct new families of classical convolutional codes (CCC's) and new families of quantum convolutional codes (QCC's). The CCC's are derived from (block) algebraic geometry (AG) codes. Furthermore, new families of CCC's are constructed by applying the techniques of puncturing, extending, expanding, and by the direct product code construction applied to AG codes. In addition, utilizing the new CCC's constructed here, we obtain new families of QCC's. The parameters of these new codes are good. More precisely, in the classical case, a family of almost near maximum distance separable (MDS) codes is presented; in the quantum case, we construct a family of MDS (optimal) quantum convolutional codes.

Asymmetric Quantum Codes and Quantum Convolutional Codes Derived from Nonprimitive Non-Narrow-Sense BCH Codes

Jianzhang CHEN, Jianping Li, Yuanyuan Huang

Nonprimitive non-narrow-sense BCH codes have been studied by many scholars. In this paper, we utilize nonprimitive non-narrow-sense BCH codes to construct a family of asymmetric quantum codes and two families of quantum convolutional codes. Most quantum codes constructed in this paper are different from the ones in the literature. Moreover, some quantum codes constructed in this paper have good parameters compared with the ones in the literature.

ASYMMETRIC QUANTUM PRODUCT CODES

Giuliano G. La Guardia

A family of asymmetric quantum codes derived from the product code of two (classical) Reed–Solomon (RS) codes is constructed in this paper. This family is constructed by applying the Calderbank–Shor–Steane (CSS) construction. The proposed codes can be utilized in quantum channels having great asymmetry, that is, quantum channels in which the probability of occurrence of phase-shift errors is large when compared to the probability of occurrence of qudit-flip errors.

Constructions of Quantum Convolutional Codes

Markus Grassl, Martin Rötteler

We address the problems of constructing quantum convolutional codes (QCCs) and of encoding them. The first construction is a CSS-type construction which allows us to find QCCs of rate 2/4. The second construction yields a quantum convolutional code by applying a product code construction to an arbitrary classical convolutional code and an arbitrary quantum block code. We show that the resulting codes have highly structured and efficient encoders. Furthermore, we show that the resulting quantum circuits have finite depth, independent of the lengths of the input stream, and show that this depth is polynomial in the degree and frame size of the code.

On the construction of optimal asymmetric quantum codes

Liqi Wang, Shixin Zhu

Constacyclic codes are important classes of linear codes that have been applied to the construction of quantum codes. Six new families of asymmetric quantum codes derived from constacyclic codes are constructed in this paper. Moreover, the constructed asymmetric quantum codes are optimal and different from the codes available in the literature.

Degenerate asymmetric quantum concatenated codes for correcting biased quantum errors*

Jihao Fan, Jun Li, Hanwu Chen +1 more

In most practical quantum mechanical systems, quantum noise due to decoherence is highly biased towards dephasing. The quantum state suffers from phase flip noise much more seriously than from the bit flip noise. In this work, we construct new families of asymmetric quantum concatenated codes (AQCCs) to deal with such biased quantum noise. Our construction is based on a novel concatenation scheme for constructing AQCCs with large asymmetries, in which classical tensor product codes and concatenated codes are utilized to correct phase flip noise and bit flip noise, respectively. We generalize the original concatenation scheme to a more general case for better correcting degenerate errors. Moreover, we focus on constructing nonbinary AQCCs that are highly degenerate. Compared to previous literatures, AQCCs constructed in this paper show much better parameter performance than existed ones. Furthermore, we design the specific encoding circuit of the AQCCs. It is shown that our codes can be encoded more efficiently than standard quantum codes.
