• Abstract: We examine exact and approximate error correction for multi-mode Fock state codes protecting against the amplitude damping noise. Based on a new formalization of the truncated amplitude damping channel, we show the equivalence of exact and approximate error correction for Fock state codes against random photon losses. Leveraging the recently found construction method based on classical codes with large distance measured in the $\ell_1$ metric, we construct asymptotically good (exact and approximate) Fock state codes. These codes have an additional property of bounded per-mode occupancy, which increases the coherence lifetime of code states and reduces the photon loss probability, both of which have a positive impact on the stability of the system. Using the relation between Fock state code construction and permutation invariant (PI) codes, we also obtain families of asymptotically good qudit PI codes as well as codes in monolithic nuclear state spaces.

  Rotation bosonic codes are attractive encodings for qubits in superconducting qubit experiments. We investigate concatenating these codes with the planar code in a measurement-based scheme for fault-tolerant quantum computation. We find that it is necessary to implement adaptive phase measurements, maximum likelihood quantum state inference, and weighted minimum weight decoding to obtain good performance for a planar code using binomial code qubits.

  We introduce decoders that are both fast and accurate, and can be used with a wide class of quantum error correction codes. Our decoders, named belief-matching and belief-find, exploit all noise information and thereby unlock higher accuracy demonstrations of QEC. We find that the decoders led to a much higher threshold and lower qubit overhead in the tailored surface code with respect to the standard, square surface code.
