Exploiting Nonlocal Effects in Quantum Error Correcting Codes

The industry partner, Xanadu, is developing large-scale quantum computers based on a photonic hardware platform. All large-scale quantum computers will rely on error correction codes in order to carry out useful computations. Due to the possibility for long-range qubit connections in a photonic system, via fibre optics, it may be possible to exploit non-local connections […]
