Hyperbolic quantum color codes
Waldir Silva Soares, Eduardo Brandani da Silva · Quantum Information and Computation · 2018
Current work presents a new approach to quantum color codes on compact surfaces with genus g\geq2 using the identification of these surfaces with hyperbolic polygons and hyperbolic tessellations. We show that this method may give rise to color codes with a very good parameters and we present tables with several examples of these codes whose parameters had not been shown before. We also present a family of codes with minimum distance d=4 and the encoding rate asymptotically going to 1 while n\rightarrow\infty.
