PIRSA:C07001 - Quantum Error Correction Course 2007 Subscribe to podcast

An in-depth introduction to quantum error correction, fault-tolerant quantum computing, and related topics. Covers stabilizer codes, CSS codes, higher-dimensional codes, specific code constructions, entanglement purification protocols, and quantum channel capacity. Also bounds on quantum error correction: quantum Hamming bound, quantum Singleton bound, linear programming bounds and the quantum MacWilliams identity; and principles of fault-tolerant quantum computation: fault-tolerant error measurement, fault-tolerant gate design, the threshold for fault-tolerant quantum computation, and topological fault-tolerance.
