• Abstract summary: Entanglement incurs costs and must be calibrated in designing quantum codes with good performance, relative to their deployment parameters. We present three new propagation rules and discuss how each of them affects the error handling. Tables listing the parameters of the best performing qubit and qutrit EAQECCs that we can explicitly construct are supplied for reference and comparison.

• Abstract: In the setting of entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs), the sender and the receiver have access to pre-shared entanglement. Such codes promise better information rates or improved error handling properties. Entanglement incurs costs and must be judiciously calibrated in designing quantum codes with good performance, relative to their deployment parameters. Revisiting known constructions, we devise tools from classical coding theory to better understand how the amount of entanglement can be varied. We present three new propagation rules and discuss how each of them affects the error handling. Tables listing the parameters of the best performing qubit and qutrit EAQECCs that we can explicitly construct are supplied for reference and comparison.

• Quantum subspace verification for error correction codes [13.856955493134908]
  We introduce a framework of quantum subspace verification, employing the knowledge of quantum error correction code subspaces to reduce the potential measurement budgets. For certain codes like the notable Calderbank-Shor-Steane codes and QLDPC stabilizer codes, the setting number and sample complexity can be significantly reduced. By combining the proposed subspace verification and direct fidelity estimation, we construct a protocol to verify the fidelity of general magic logical states.

  We exploit the idea of erasure qubits, relying on an efficient conversion of the dominant noise into erasures at known locations. We propose and optimize QEC schemes based on erasure qubits and the recently-introduced Floquet codes. Our results demonstrate that, despite being slightly more complex, QEC schemes based on erasure qubits can significantly outperform standard approaches.

• Quantum Error Transmutation [1.8719295298860394]
  We introduce a generalisation of quantum error correction, relaxing the requirement that a code should identify and correct a set of physical errors on the Hilbert space of a quantum computer exactly. We call these quantum error transmuting codes. They are of particular interest for the simulation of noisy quantum systems, and for use in algorithms inherently robust to errors of a particular character.

We identify inter-day and intra-day qubit calibration drift and the impacts of quantum circuit placement on groups of qubits in different physical locations on the processor. This paper also discusses how these measurements can provide a better understanding of these types of errors and how they may improve efforts to validate the accuracy of quantum computations.

• Fault-tolerant Coding for Quantum Communication [71.206200318454]
  encode and decode circuits to reliably send messages over many uses of a noisy channel. For every quantum channel $T$ and every $eps>0$ there exists a threshold $p(epsilon,T)$ for the gate error probability below which rates larger than $C-epsilon$ are fault-tolerantly achievable. Our results are relevant in communication over large distances, and also on-chip, where distant parts of a quantum computer might need to communicate under higher levels of noise.

• Cellular automaton decoders for topological quantum codes with noisy measurements and beyond [68.8204255655161]
  We propose an error correction procedure based on a cellular automaton, the sweep rule, which is applicable to a broad range of codes beyond topological quantum codes. For simplicity, we focus on the three-dimensional (3D) toric code on the rhombic dodecahedral lattice with boundaries and prove that the resulting local decoder has a non-zero error threshold. We find that this error correction procedure is remarkably robust against measurement errors and is also essentially insensitive to the details of the lattice and noise model.
