Cluster-State Quantum Error-Correction Based on AdS/CFT
Abstract
Quantum error correction is one of the bottlenecks for continued development of quantum computers. Recently, a new class of quantum error correction codes, known as holographic codes, were proposed. These codes were originally inspired by a simplified model of a 2 dimensional cosmology that exhibits the AdS/CFT correspondence. These codes are known to have a high tolerance against errors in which components are erased, making them good candidates for testing robustness against a larger class of quantum-mechanical errors. This proposal will extend these codes to broaden the family of known holographic codes. In particular, it will develop another class of holographic codes based on Steane s 7-qubit code. This has some specific properties that make it amenable to experimental implementation. This project will also develop algorithms for decoding a broader range of quantum errors in these codes.
