Additive Asymmetric Quantum Codes
We present a general construction of asymmetric quantum codes based on
additive codes under the trace Hermitian inner product. Various families of
additive codes over \F_{4} are used in the construction of many asymmetric
quantum codes over \F_{4}.Comment: Accepted for publication March 2, 2011, IEEE Transactions on

High Performance Single-Error-Correcting Quantum Codes for Amplitude Damping
Original manuscript July 29, 2009We construct families of high performance quantum amplitude damping codes. All of our codes are nonadditive and most modestly outperform the best possible additive codes in terms of encoded dimension. One family is built from nonlinear error-correcting codes for classical asymmetric channels, with which we systematically construct quantum amplitude damping codes with parameters better than any prior construction known for any block length n ≥ 8 except n=2r-1. We generalize this construction to employ classical codes over GF(3) with which we numerically obtain better performing codes up to length 14. Because the resulting codes are of the codeword stabilized (CWS) type, conceptually simple (though potentially computationally expensive) encoding and decoding circuits are available
From Skew-Cyclic Codes to Asymmetric Quantum Codes
We introduce an additive but not -linear map from
to and exhibit some of its interesting
structural properties. If is a linear -code, then is an
additive -code. If is an additive cyclic code then
is an additive quasi-cyclic code of index . Moreover, if is a module
-cyclic code, a recently introduced type of code which will be
explained below, then is equivalent to an additive cyclic code if is
odd and to an additive quasi-cyclic code of index if is even. Given any
-code , the code is self-orthogonal under the trace
Hermitian inner product. Since the mapping preserves nestedness, it can be
used as a tool in constructing additive asymmetric quantum codes.Comment: 16 pages, 3 tables, submitted to Advances in Mathematics of

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
Codeword Stabilized Quantum Codes for Asymmetric Channels
We discuss a method to adapt the codeword stabilized (CWS) quantum code
framework to the problem of finding asymmetric quantum codes. We focus on the
corresponding Pauli error models for amplitude damping noise and phase damping
noise. In particular, we look at codes for Pauli error models that correct one
or two amplitude damping errors. Applying local Clifford operations on graph
states, we are able to exhaustively search for all possible codes up to length
. With a similar method, we also look at codes for the Pauli error model
that detect a single amplitude error and detect multiple phase damping errors.
Many new codes with good parameters are found, including nonadditive codes and
degenerate codes.Comment: 5 page
Moderate Deviation Analysis for Classical Communication over Quantum Channels
© 2017, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany. We analyse families of codes for classical data transmission over quantum channels that have both a vanishing probability of error and a code rate approaching capacity as the code length increases. To characterise the fundamental tradeoff between decoding error, code rate and code length for such codes we introduce a quantum generalisation of the moderate deviation analysis proposed by AltÅg and Wagner as well as Polyanskiy and Verdú. We derive such a tradeoff for classical-quantum (as well as image-additive) channels in terms of the channel capacity and the channel dispersion, giving further evidence that the latter quantity characterises the necessary backoff from capacity when transmitting finite blocks of classical data. To derive these results we also study asymmetric binary quantum hypothesis testing in the moderate deviations regime. Due to the central importance of the latter task, we expect that our techniques will find further applications in the analysis of other quantum information processing tasks
