Book Description
Quantum error correction is the backbone of fault-tolerant quantum computation, a necessary requirement for any large scale quantum computer. The fault-tolerance threshold theorem has long been a target for experimental precision, allowing for the possibility of reducing logical error rates to arbitrarily low levels without excessive overhead. While there are many promising fault-tolerant architectures, the path towards the most practical fault-tolerant scheme is far from decided and may vary for differing physical models. This thesis proposes new schemes for universal fault-tolerant quantum computation in both the concatenated and topological code settings. Through the concatenation of two different error correcting codes, a set of universal fault-tolerant gates can be obtained without requiring the need for magic state distillation. A lower bound of $1.28 \times 10^{-3}$ for the fault-tolerance threshold under circuit level depolarizing noise is obtained. Additionally, stacked codes are proposed as a means to simulate the action of a 3D topological code in 2D, allowing for the application of a universal set of transversal operations. While fault-tolerant, unfortunately the scheme does not exhibit a threshold due to the decreasing pseudo-threshold with growing code distance, yet points to potential interesting avenues for fault-tolerant computation in 2D without distillation. One of the primary avenues to constructing fault-tolerant logical operations is through transversal operations. In this thesis, the set of single qubit logical gates that can be implemented transversally are characterized and determined to all belong to the Clifford hierarchy. Moreover, any diagonal two-qubit operation that can be applied transversally must belong to the same level of the Clifford hierarchy as the set of gates that can be implemented in the single-qubit case. The opposite to quantum error correction is privacy, where the output of a channel is disguised from its input. The two are fundamentally related through the complementary channel construction. This thesis presents a new class of private quantum channels, expanding the existing class beyond a seemingly fundamental restriction. This yields interesting insights into the structure of quantum information and the leaking of information to external environments. Additionally, the duality is only recovered when extending the complementary channel to sufficiently high environmental dimension. Finally, the error properties of bucket brigade quantum Random Access Memory (qRAM) are assessed. It is determined that using the bucket brigade qRAM architecture for the running of Grover's algorithm necessitates reducing the error rate of the individual components to exponentially small levels for an exponential sized memory. As such, fault-tolerant architectures will likely play an essential role in the construction of such computing primitives.

Book Description
It was once widely believed that quantum computation would never become a reality. However, the discovery of quantum error correction and the proof of the accuracy threshold theorem nearly ten years ago gave rise to extensive development and research aimed at creating a working, scalable quantum computer. Over a decade has passed since this monumental accomplishment yet no book-length pedagogical presentation of this important theory exists. Quantum Error Correction and Fault Tolerant Quantum Computing offers the first full-length exposition on the realization of a theory once thought impossible. It provides in-depth coverage on the most important class of codes discovered to date—quantum stabilizer codes. It brings together the central themes of quantum error correction and fault-tolerant procedures to prove the accuracy threshold theorem for a particular noise error model. The author also includes a derivation of well-known bounds on the parameters of quantum error correcting code. Packed with over 40 real-world problems, 35 field exercises, and 17 worked-out examples, this book is the essential resource for any researcher interested in entering the quantum field as well as for those who want to understand how the unexpected realization of quantum computing is possible.

Book Description
This text presents an algebraic approach to the construction of several important families of quantum codes derived from classical codes by applying the well-known Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS), Hermitian, and Steane enlargement constructions to certain classes of classical codes. In addition, the book presents families of asymmetric quantum codes with good parameters and provides a detailed description of the procedures adopted to construct families of asymmetric quantum convolutional codes. Featuring accessible language and clear explanations, the book is suitable for use in advanced undergraduate and graduate courses as well as for self-guided study and reference. It provides an expert introduction to algebraic techniques of code construction and, because all of the constructions are performed algebraically, it enables the reader to construct families of codes, rather than only codes with specific parameters. The text offers an abundance of worked examples, exercises, and open-ended problems to motivate the reader to further investigate this rich area of inquiry. End-of-chapter summaries and a glossary of key terms allow for easy review and reference.

Book Description
Quantum computers have the potential to solve several interesting problems in polynomial time for which no polynomial time classical algorithms have been found. However, one of the major challenges in building quantum devices is that quantum systems are very sensitive to noise arising from undesired interactions with the environment. Noise can lead to errors which can corrupt the results of the computation. Quantum error correction is one way to mitigate the effects of noise arising in quantum devices. With a plethora of quantum error correcting codes that can be used in various settings, one of the main challenges of quantum error correction is understanding how well various codes perform under more realistic noise models that can be observed in experiments. This thesis proposes a new decoding algorithm which can optimize threshold values of error correcting codes under different noise models. The algorithm can be applied to any Markovian noise model. Further, it is shown that for certain noise models, logical Clifford corrections can further improve a code's threshold value if the code obeys certain symmetries. Since gates and measurements cannot in general be performed with perfect precision, the operations required to perform quantum error correction can introduce more errors into the system thus negating the benefits of error correction. Fault-tolerant quantum computing is a way to perform quantum error correction with imperfect operations while retaining the ability to suppress errors as long as the noise is below a code's threshold. One of the main challenges in performing fault-tolerant error correction is the high resource requirements that are needed to obtain very low logical noise rates. With the use of flag qubits, this thesis develops new fault-tolerant error correction protocols that are applicable to arbitrary distance codes. Various code families are shown to satisfy the requirements of flag fault-tolerant error correction. We also provide circuits using a constant number of qubits for these codes. It is shown that the proposed flag fault-tolerant method uses fewer qubits than previous fault-tolerant error correction protocols. It is often the case that the noise afflicting a quantum device cannot be fully characterized. Further, even with some knowledge of the noise, it can be very challenging to use analytic decoding methods to improve the performance of a fault-tolerant scheme. This thesis presents decoding schemes using several state of the art machine learning techniques with a focus on fault-tolerant quantum error correction in regimes that are relevant to near term experiments. It is shown that even in low noise rate regimes and with no knowledge of the noise, noise can be further suppressed for small distance codes. Limitations of machine learning decoders as well as the classical resources required to perform active error correction are discussed. In many cases, gate times can be much shorter than typical measurement times of quantum states. Further, classical decoding of the syndrome information used in quantum error correction to compute recovery operators can also be much slower than gate times. For these reasons, schemes where error correction can be implemented in a frame (known as the Pauli frame) have been developed to avoid active error correction. In this thesis, we generalize previous Pauli frame schemes and show how Clifford frame error correction can be implemented with minimal overhead. Clifford frame error correction is necessary if the logical component of recovery operators were chosen from the Clifford group, but could also be used in randomized benchmarking schemes.

Book Description
For many everyday transmissions, it is essential to protect digital information from noise or eavesdropping. This undergraduate introduction to error correction and cryptography is unique in devoting several chapters to quantum cryptography and quantum computing, thus providing a context in which ideas from mathematics and physics meet. By covering such topics as Shor's quantum factoring algorithm, this text informs the reader about current thinking in quantum information theory and encourages an appreciation of the connections between mathematics and science.Of particular interest are the potential impacts of quantum physics:(i) a quantum computer, if built, could crack our currently used public-key cryptosystems; and (ii) quantum cryptography promises to provide an alternative to these cryptosystems, basing its security on the laws of nature rather than on computational complexity. No prior knowledge of quantum mechanics is assumed, but students should have a basic knowledge of complex numbers, vectors, and matrices.
