Error Correction

Quantum error correction is a huge part of why current quantum computers are still being improved today. Understanding the quantum error correction problem will get you on your way to be a QC whiz!


Software & Tools

  • A Github scientific software library for working with quantum error correction
  • A medium article that shows how to test error correction on a quantum computer.
  • the qiskit chapter on error corrections using repetition codes
  • Q-CTRL's software is always excellent
  • Another software repo with fantastic visualization of topological codes, stabilizers, error models and more is found at panqec repository
  • This is a fantastic youtube tutorial on simulating a quantum error correcting circuit using Stim

Research

  •  QEC scheme called measurement-based estimator scheme for continuous quantum error correction (MBE-CQEC), which could quickly and efficiently detect and correct errors from partial, noisy syndrome measurements. They set up a powerful classical computer to act as an outside controller (or estimator) that estimates errors in the quantum system, filters out the noise perfectly, and applies feedback to correct them!Pasted image 20221217144843.png

  • Quantum Low-Density Parity-Check (QLDPC) Code - Also called a sparse quantum code. Family of n,k,d stabilizer codes for which the number of sites (either qubit or qudit) participating in each stabilizer generator and the number of stabilizer generators that each site participates in are both bounded by a constant as <73>→∞. A geometrically local stabilizer code is a QLDPC code where the sites involved in any syndrome bit are contained in a fixed volume that does not scale with <68>. As opposed to general stabilizer codes, syndrome extraction of the constant-weight check operators of a QLDPC codes can be done using a constant-depth circuit.
