Abstract

Obtaining quantum maximum distance separable (MDS) codes from dual containing classical constacyclic codes using Hermitian construction have paved a path to undertake the challenges related to such constructions. Using the same technique, some new parameters of quantum MDS codes have been constructed here. One set of parameters obtained in this paper has achieved much larger distance than work done earlier. The remaining constructed parameters of quantum MDS codes have large minimum distance and were not explored yet.

Application of Constacyclic Codes to Quantum MDS Codes

Bocong Chen, San Ling, Guanghui Zhang

Quantum maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes form an important class of quantum codes. To get q-ary quantum MDS codes, one of the effective ways is to find linear MDS codes C over Fq2satisfying C⊥H⊆ C, where C⊥Hdenotes the Hermitian dual code of C. For a linear code C of length n over Fq2, we say that C is a dual-containing code if C⊥H⊆ C and C≠ Fq2n. Several classes of new quantum MDS codes with relatively large minimum distance have been produced through dual-containing constacyclic MDS codes. These works motivate us to make a careful study on the existence conditions for dual-containing constacyclic codes. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of dual-containing constacyclic codes. Four classes of dual-containing constacyclic MDS codes are constructed and their parameters are computed. Consequently, the quantum MDS codes are derived from these parameters. The quantum MDS codes exhibited here have minimum distance bigger than the ones available in the literature.

Some New Classes of Quantum MDS Codes From Constacyclic Codes

Tao Zhang, Gennian Ge

Quantum maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes form an important family of quantum codes. In this paper, using Hermitian construction and classical constacyclic codes, we construct six classes of quantum MDS codes. Two of these six classes of quantum MDS codes have larger minimum distance than the ones available in the literature. Most of these quantum MDS codes are new in the sense that their parameters are not covered by the codes available in the literature.

Constacyclic Codes and Some New Quantum MDS Codes

Xiaoshan Kai, Shixin Zhu, Li Ping

One central theme in quantum error-correction is to construct quantum codes that have a large minimum distance. Quantum maximal distance separable (MDS) codes are optimal in the sense they attain maximal minimum distance. Recently, constructing quantum MDS codes has received much attention and seems to become more and more difficult. In this paper, based on classical constacyclic codes, we construct some new quantum MDS codes by employing the Hermitian construction. Compared with the known quantum MDS codes, these quantum MDS codes have much larger minimum distance.

Some New Constructions of Quantum MDS Codes

Weijun Fang, Fang‐Wei Fu

It is an important task to construct quantum maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes with good parameters. In the present paper, we provide six new classes of$q$-ary quantum MDS codes by using generalized Reed–Solomon (GRS) codes and Hermitian construction. The minimum distances of our quantum MDS codes can be larger than$\frac {q}{2}+1$. Three of these six classes of quantum MDS codes have longer lengths than the ones constructed in[1]and[2], hence some of their results can be easily derived from ours via the propagation rule. Moreover, some known quantum MDS codes of specific lengths can be seen as special cases of ours and the minimum distances of some known quantum MDS codes are also improved as well.

Some quantum MDS codes from GRS codes

Guohui Wang, Chunming Tang

The construction of quantum maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes has become one of the major goals in quantum coding theory. In this paper, we construct several classes of Hermitian self-orthogonal generalized Reed–Solomon codes. Based on these classical MDS codes, we obtain several new classes of quantum MDS codes with large minimum distance. It turns out that these constructed quantum MDS codes have fewer constraints on the selection of code length, and in some cases, have larger minimum distance than previous literature. Notably, some of the distance parameters of our codes are greater than (q/2)+1.

Quantum maximum-distance-separable (MDS) codes are an important class of quantum codes. In this paper, using constacyclic codes and Hermitain construction, we construct some new quantum MDS codes of the form $q=2am+t$, $n=\frac{q^{2}+1}{a}$. Most of these quantum MDS codes are new in the sense that their parameters are not covered be the codes available in the literature.
