Efficient decoding of random errors for quantum expander codes

Year: 2018
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: We show that quantum expander codes, a constant-rate family of quantum low-density parity check (LDPC) codes, with the quasi-linear time decoding algorithm of Leverrier, Tillich and Zémor can correct a constant fraction of random errors with very high probability. This is the first construction of a constant-rate quantum LDPC code with an efficient decoding algorithm that can correct a linear number of random errors with a negligible failure probability. Finding codes with these properties is also motivated by Gottesman’s construction of fault tolerant schemes with constant space overhead.
