Multiplexed Toric Codes on Erasure Channel

This is a C++ implementation of multiplexed toric codes simulator.

Simulation Flow

You can simulate the multiplexed quantum communication with surface code by g++ -O2 -std=c++20 *.cpp -o main && "your_path/multiplexed_toric/src/"main; and then you get result.json.

Simulation flows are:

• Multiplexing (assign qubits to photons)
• Erasure error on a photon -> erasure errrors on multiple qubits
• Replace erased qubits with mixed state -> erasure can be regarded as a random Pauli error.
• X stabilizer measurement
• Run peeling decoder
• Determines if any Z logical errors remain after decoding.

You can visualize the result of the simulation as .png file with python python draw_toric.py LATTICE_SIZE_V LATTICE_SIZE_H "result.json";

You will get something like this:

Requirements

• nlohmann/json
  • JSON library for C++
