چکیده

Recently Haah introduced a new quantum error correcting code embedded on a cubic lattice. One of the defining properties of this code is the absence of string logical operator. We present new codes with similar properties by relaxing the condition on the local particle dimension. The resulting code is well-defined when the local Hilbert space dimension is prime. These codes can be divided into two different classes: the local stabilizer generators are either symmetric or antisymmetric with respect to the inversion operation. These is a nontrivial correspondence between these two classes. For any symmetric code without string logical operator, there exists a complementary antisymmetric code with the same property and vice versa. We derive a sufficient condition for the absence of string logical operator in terms of the algebraic constraints on the defining parameters of the code. Minimal number of local particle dimension which satisfies the condition is 5. These codes have logarithmic energy barrier for any logical error.

Local stabilizer codes in three dimensions without string logical operators

We suggest concrete models for self-correcting quantum memory by reporting examples of local stabilizer codes in 3D that have no string logical operators. Previously known local stabilizer codes in 3D all have stringlike logical operators, which make the codes non-self-correcting. We introduce a notion of “logical string segments” to avoid difficulties in defining one-dimensional objects in dis...

Logical-operator tradeoff for local quantum codes

We study the structure of logical operators in localD-dimensional quantum codes, considering both subsystem codes with geometrically local gauge generators and codes defined by geometrically local commuting projectors. We show that if the code distance is d , then any logical operator can be supported on a set of specified geometry containing d̃ qubits, where d̃d1/(D−1) = O(n) and n is the code l...

QuanTree and QuanLin, Two Special Purpose Quantum Compilers

This paper introduces QuanTree v1.1 and QuanLin v1.1, two Java applications available for free. (Source code included in the distribution.) Each application compiles a different type of input quantum evolution operator. The applications output a quantum circuit that is approximately equal to the input evolution operator. QuanTree compiles an input evolution operator whose Hamiltonian is proport...

Supplementary Material: Numerical study of quantum self-correction in the 3D Cubic Code model

Here, we explain details of our numerical simulation. The interaction of the memory system with a thermal bath is simulated by Metropolis evolution. As we wish to observe low temperature behavior we adopt continuous time algorithm by Bortz, Kalos, and Lebowitz (BKL) [1]. A pseudo-random number generation package RngStream by L’Ecuyer [2] was used. As before, the coupling constant in the Hamilto...

Energy landscape of 3D spin Hamiltonians with topological order.

We explore the feasibility of a quantum self-correcting memory based on 3D spin Hamiltonians with topological quantum order in which thermal diffusion of topological defects is suppressed by macroscopic energy barriers. To this end we characterize the energy landscape of stabilizer code Hamiltonians with local bounded-strength interactions which have a topologically ordered ground state but do ...
