Stabilizer code
open-in-new
<p>In <a href="/facts/Quantum_computing/nbbcgmvq">quantum computing</a> and <a href="/facts/Quantum_communication/JDuxpHp8">quantum communication</a>, a stabilizer code is a class of quantum <a href="/facts/Code/CSntvnEo">codes</a> for performing <a href="/facts/Quantum_error_correction/lrUNMuob">quantum error correction</a>. The <a href="/facts/Toric_code/tdWlYEI9">toric code</a>, and <a href="/facts/Toric_code/tdWlYEI9">surface codes</a> more generally, are types of stabilizer codes considered very important for the practical realization of quantum information processing. </p>
