Asymmetric Quantum Codes: New Codes from Old
In this paper we extend to asymmetric quantum error-correcting codes (AQECC)
the construction methods, namely: puncturing, extending, expanding, direct sum
and the (u|u + v) construction. By applying these methods, several families of
asymmetric quantum codes can be constructed. Consequently, as an example of
application of quantum code expansion developed here, new families of
asymmetric quantum codes derived from generalized Reed-Muller (GRM) codes,
quadratic residue (QR), Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH), character codes and
affine-invariant codes are constructed.Comment: Accepted for publication Quantum Information Processin
Computing Extensions of Linear Codes
This paper deals with the problem of increasing the minimum distance of a
linear code by adding one or more columns to the generator matrix. Several
methods to compute extensions of linear codes are presented. Many codes
improving the previously known lower bounds on the minimum distance have been
found.Comment: accepted for publication at ISIT 0
