Abstract
This paper investigates the resilience of distributed algorithms against errors, a critical challenge in quantum computing and networked systems. We propose a novel approach to analyzing the fault tolerance of distributed algorithms by leveraging the principles of quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs). Specifically, we develop a framework for quantifying the error correction capabilities of QECCs in the context of distributed algorithms, considering factors such as code distance, decoding efficiency, and network topology. Our analysis provides a rigorous method for evaluating and optimizing distributed algorithms for enhanced reliability. The core of our work lies in translating the theoretical properties of QECCs into practical metrics for assessing algorithmic robustness, and we present a methodology for guiding algorithm design based on these metrics. The results of our analysis demonstrate the potential to significantly improve the resilience of distributed algorithms through strategic code selection and network configuration. We aim to provide a foundational understanding for designing fault-tolerant distributed systems utilizing quantum technologies.
