Quantum Error Correction - General Codes

General Codes

In general, a quantum code for a quantum channel is a subspace, where is the state Hilbert space, such that there exists another quantum channel with

 (\mathcal{R} \circ \mathcal{E})(\rho) = \rho \quad \forall \rho = P_{\mathcal{C}}\rho P_{\mathcal{C}},

where is the orthogonal projection onto . Here is known as the correction operation.

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or codes:

    I have never looked at foreign countries or gone there but with the purpose of getting to know the general human qualities that are spread all over the earth in very different forms, and then to find these qualities again in my own country and to recognize and to further them.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Thou hast a voice, great Mountain, to repeal
    Large codes of fraud and woe; not understood
    By all, but which the wise, and great, and good
    Interpret, or make felt, or deeply feel.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
