Quantum error‐correcting codes (QECCs) have emerged as a crucial instrument in the quest to realise reliable quantum information processing. These codes utilise sophisticated mathematical frameworks ...

Error-correcting codes are one of the glories of the information age: They're what guarantee the flawless transmission of digital information over the airwaves or through copper wire, even in the ...

Unlike binary bits of information in ordinary computers, “qubits” consist of quantum particles that have some probability of being in each of two states, designated |0 and |1 , at the same time. When ...

Quantum computing is still really, really hard. But the rise of a powerful class of error-correcting codes suggests that the task might be slightly more feasible than many feared. The Quanta ...

This year’s Q2B meeting took place at the end of last month in Paris at the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie, a science museum in the north-east of the city. The event brought together more than ...

Number parity duality and non-distributive arithmetic lead to a nonlinear error-correcting code over ℤ which generalizes linear Hamming codes. Journal Information One of the ways that Pi Mu Epsilon ...

The same codes needed to thwart errors in quantum computers may also give the fabric of space-time its intrinsic robustness. Unlike binary bits of information in ordinary computers, “qubits” consist ...
