Description:
An expert discussion of the potential evolution of quantum codes
In From Classical to Quantum Coding, a team of distinguished researchers delivers a seamless book on the subject of quantum error correction codes (QECC) designed to mitigate the environment-induced decoherence imposed on quantum computing and communications. Commencing from first principles, Part I is dedicated to readers familiar with classical coding and wishing to move into quantum coding. Part II focuses on near-term quantum codes requiring a modest to moderate number of qubits. Finally, Part III of the book offers an outlook on the classical to quantum evolution of QECCs, to advanced codes that rely on numerous qubits as quantum technology matures.
The book incorporates several advanced topics, including the universal decoding of arbitrary linear codes, iterative short turbo block codes, turbo convolutional codes, and the family of low-density parity check codes. The powerful design tool of extrinsic information transfer charts plays a central role in the associated near-hashing-bound designs.
