14 Computer Science Approach: Discretize QECC Characterization [Knill & Laflamme, PRA 55, (1997)] A subspace C of H with orthonormal basis { c 1,, c K } is an error-correcting code for the error operators E = {E 1, E 2, }, if there exists constants α k,l such that for all c i, c j and for all E k, E l E: c i E k E l c j = δ i,j α k,l (1) It is sufficient that (1) holds for a vector space basis of E

15 Linearity of Conditions Assume that C can correct the errors E = {E 1, E 2, } New error-operators: A := k λ k E k and B := l µ l E l c i A B c j = k,l λ k µ l c i E k E l c j = k,l λ k µ l δ i,j α k,l = δ i,j α (A, B) It is sufficient to correct error operators that form a basis of the linear vector space spanned by the operators E = only a finite set of errors

16 Error Basis Pauli Matrices ( ) 0 1 ( ) 0 i ( 1 0 ) ( ) 1 0 σ x := 1 0, σ y := i 0, σ z := 0 1, I := 0 1 vector space basis of all 2 2 matrices unitary matrices which generate a finite group Error Basis for many Qubits/Qudits E error basis for subsystem of dimension d with I E = E n error basis with elements E := E 1 E n, E i E weight of E: number of factors E i I

17 Local Error Model Code Parameters C = [n, k, d] n: number of subsystems used in total k: number of (logical) subsystems encoded d: minimum distance correct all errors acting on at most (d 1)/2 subsystems detect all errors acting on less than d subsystems correct all errors acting on less than d subsystems at known positions

23 Encoding Stabilizer Codes [Grassl, Rötteler, and Beth, IJFCS, 14 (2003), pp ] Basic idea: Use operations of the generalized Clifford group (or Jacobi group) to transform the stabilizer S into a trivial stabilizer S 0 := Z (1), Z (n k) row/column operations on the binary matrix (X Z) to obtain normal form (0 I0) operations on (X Z) correspond to elementary single-qubit gates CNOT-gate single qudit gate P := 1 0 = 0 e πi/ i

24 Action on Pauli Matrices Hadamard matrix H HXH = Z HY H = Y HZH = X (1, 0) (0, 1) (1, 1) (1, 1) (0, 1) (1, 0) exchange X and Z matrix P P XP = Y P Y P = X P ZP = Z (1, 0) (1, 1) (1, 1) (1, 0) (0, 1) (0, 1) multiply X by Z in mod2 operation on binary row vectors: (a, b) M = (a, b ) (arithmetic mod2) H ˆ= 0 1 and P ˆ= local operation on (X Z): multiplying column i in submatrix X and column i in submatrix Z by M

25 Action of CNOT Error propagation X ˆ= X X Z ˆ= Z X ˆ= ˆ= X Z Z Z

26 Action of CNOT Modifying stabilizers X ˆ= X X Z ˆ= Z X ˆ= X Z ˆ= Z Z

27 Action of CNOT Modifying stabilizers X ˆ= X X Z ˆ= Z X ˆ= X Z ˆ= Z Z add X from source to target add Z from target to source

39 Step III: Row Operations multiplying generators ˆ= adding/permuting rows T 1 := I I H I H T 2 := CNOT (1,2) CNOT (1,3) CNOT (1,5)
