Class of quantum error correcting codes

In quantum error correction, Calderbank–Shor–Steane (CSS) codes, named after their inventors, Robert Calderbank, Peter Shor and Andrew Steane, are a special type of stabilizer code constructed from classical linear codes with some special properties. Examples of CSS codes include the Shor code, Steane code, the toric code, and more general surface codes. Wikipedia →
