Promising ways to encode and manipulate quantum information

Paolo Zanardi A, Seth Lloyd

Encoding and manipulation of quantum information by means of topological degrees of freedom provides a promising way to achieve natural fault-tolerance that is built-in at the physical level. We show that this topological approach to quantum information processing is a particular instance of the notion of computation in a noiseless quantum subsystem. The latter then provide the most general conceptual framework for quantum-information stabilizing strategies

Encoding and manipulation of quantum information by means of topological degrees of freedom provides a promising way to achieve natural fault tolerance that is built in at the physical level. We show that this topological approach to quantum information processing is a particular instance of the notion of computation in a noiseless quantum subsystem. The latter then provides the most general conceptual framework for stabilizing quantum information and for preserving quantum coherence in topological and geometric systems.

We show that quantum information can be encoded into entangled states of multiple indistinguishable particles in such a way that any inertial observer can prepare, manipulate, or measure the encoded state independent of their Lorentz reference frame. Such relativistically invariant quantum information is free of the difficulties associated with encoding into spin or other degrees of freedom in a relativistic context.
