The relation between stabilizer codes and binary codes provided by Gottesman and Calderbank et al. is a celebrated result, as it allows the lifting of classical codes to quantum codes. An equivalent way to state this result is that the work allows us to lift decoders for classical codes over the Hamming metric to decoders for stabilizer quantum codes. A natural question to consider: Can we do something similar with decoders for classical codes considered over other metrics? i.e., Can we lift decoders for classical codes over other metrics to obtain decoders for stabilizer quantum codes? In our current work, we answer this question in the affirmative by considering classical codes over the symbol-pair metric. In particular, we present a relation between the symplectic weight and the symbol-pair weight and use it to improve the error correction capability of CSS-codes (a well-studied class of stabilizer codes) obtained from cyclic codes. |
