- Abstract: To perform reliable quantum computation, quantum error correction is
indispensable. In certain cases, continuous covariance symmetry of the physical
system can make exact error correction impossible. In this work we study the
approximate error correction and covariance symmetry from the
information-theoretic perspective. For general encoding and noise channels, we
define a quantity named infidelity to characterize the performance of the
approximate quantum error correction and quantify the noncovariance of an
encoding channel with respect to a general Lie group from the asymmetry measure
of the corresponding Choi state. In particular, when the encoding channel is
isometric, we derive a trade-off relation between infidelity and noncovariance.
Furthermore, we calculate the average infidelity and noncovariance measure for
a type of random code.

It is common to employ a complementary measure of fidelity as a way to quantify quantum state distinguishability and benchmark approximations in error correction.
We address two distance measures based on the sub- and superfidelities as a way to bound error approximations, which in turn require a lower computational cost.

We introduce a surface code design based on the fact that bit flip and phase flip errors in quantum systems are asymmetric.
We show that, compared to symmetric surface codes, our asymmetric surface codes can provide almost double the pseudo-threshold rates.
As the asymmetry of the surface code increases, the advantage in the pseudo-threshold rates begins to saturate for any degree of asymmetry in the channel.
