Asymptotically Good CSS-T Codes and a new Construction of Triorthogonal Codes*
We propose a new systematic construction of CSS-T codes from any given CSS code using a map Ï•. When Ï• is the identity map I, we retrieve the construction of hu2021mitigating and use it to prove the existence of asymptotically good binary CSS-T codes, resolving a previously open problem in the literature, and of asymptotically good quantum LDPC CSS-T codes.
Union-Intersection Union-Find for Decoding Depolarizing Errors in Topological Codes
In this paper, we introduce the Union-Intersection Union-Find (UIUF) algorithm for decoding depolarizing errors in topological codes, combining the strengths of iterative and standard Union-Find (UF) decoding. While iterative UF improves performance at moderate error rates, it lacks an error correction guarantee. To address this, we develop UIUF, which maintains the enhanced performance of iterative UF while ensuring error correction up to half the code distance.
