• Abstract: The existence of self-correcting quantum memories in three dimensions is a long-standing open question at the interface between quantum computing and many-body physics. We take the perspective that large contributions to the entropy arising from fine-tuned spatial symmetries, including the assumption of an underlying regular lattice, are responsible for fundamental challenges to realizing self-correction. Accordingly, we introduce a class of disordered quantum codes, which we call "cored product codes". These codes are derived from classical factors via the hypergraph product but undergo a coring procedure which allows them to be embedded in a lower number of spatial dimensions while preserving code properties. As a specific example, we focus on a fractal code based on the aperiodic pinwheel tiling as the classical factor and perform finite temperature numerical simulations on the resulting three-dimensional quantum memory. We provide evidence that, below a critical temperature, the memory lifetime increases with system size for codes up to 60000 qubits.

  We introduce a general framework which allows us to correctly identify quantum resources in encoded computations. We illustrate our general construction with the Gottesman--Kitaev--Preskill encoding of qudits with odd dimension. The resulting Wigner function, which we call the Zak-Gross Wigner function, is shown to correctly identify quantum resources through its phase-space negativity.

  Topological subsystem codes allow for quantum error correction with no time overhead, even in the presence of measurement noise. We provide a systematic construction of a class of codes in three dimensions built from abelian quantum double models in one fewer dimension. Our construction not only generalizes the recently introduced subsystem toric code, but also provides a new perspective on several aspects of the original model.

  Wigner negativity is known to be a necessary resource for computational advantage in several quantum-computing architectures.
