Floquet Codes from Derived Semi-Regular Hyperbolic Tessellations on Orientable and Non-Orientable Surfaces

In this paper, we construct several new quantum Floquet codes on compact, orientable, as well as non-orientable surfaces. In order to obtain such codes, we identify these surfaces with hyperbolic polygons and examine hyperbolic semi-regular tessellations on such surfaces. The method of construction presented here generalizes similar constructions concerning hyperbolic Floquet codes on connected and compact surfaces with genus $g \geq 2$. A performance analysis and an investigation of the asymptotic behavior of these codes are also presented.

Asymmetric quantum codes on non-orientable surfaces

In this paper, we construct new families of asymmetric quantum surface codes (AQSCs) over non-orientable surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$ by applying tools of hyperbolic geometry. More precisely, we prove that if the genus $g$ of a non-orientable surface is even $(g=2h)$, then the parameters of the corresponding AQSC are equal to the parameters of a surface code obtained from an orientable surface of genus $h$. Additionally, if $S$ is a non-orientable surface of genus $g$, we show that the new surface code constructed on a $\{p, q\}$ tessellation over $S$ has the ratio $k/n$ better than the ratio of an AQSC constructed on the same $\{p, q\}$ tessellation over an orientable surface of the same genus $g$.
