Abstract

This paper investigates the feasibility and design of a secure distributed quantum computation system leveraging quantum error correction (QEC) techniques. The core claim posits that QEC can enable secure distributed quantum computation. The proposed mechanism involves a novel distributed architecture designed specifically to incorporate QEC, thereby mitigating the inherent vulnerabilities associated with transmitting and processing quantum information over distributed networks. We outline a framework for building such a system, considering key aspects such as qubit distribution, error detection and correction protocols, and communication strategies. The focus remains on the theoretical design and potential benefits, without conducting experimental validation. This work aims to address a critical gap in the field – the lack of a concrete architectural design utilizing QEC for distributed quantum computing. The paper concludes with a discussion of challenges and future research directions.
