Surface codes are among the best candidates to ensure the fault-tolerance of a quantum computer. In order to avoid the accumulation of errors during a computation, it is crucial to have at our disposal a fast decoding algorithm to quickly identify and correct errors as soon as they occur. We propose a linear-time maximum likelihood decoder for surface codes over the quantum erasure channel. This decoding algorithm for dealing with qubit loss is optimal both in terms of performance and speed.

We formulate maximum likelihood (ML) channel decoding as a quadratic unconstraint binary optimization (QUBO) and simulate the decoding by the current commercial quantum annealing machine, D-Wave 2000Q. We prepared two implementations with Ising model
formulations, generated from the generator matrix and the parity-check matrix respectively. We evaluated these implementations of ML decoding for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, analyzing the number of spins and connections and comparing the decoding performance with belief propagation (BP) decoding and brute-force ML decoding with classical computers. The results show that these implementations are superior to BP decoding in relatively short length codes, and while the performance in the long length codes deteriorates, the implementation from the parity-check matrix formulation still works up to 1k length with fewer spins and connections than that of the generator matrix formulation due to the sparseness of parity-check matrices of LDPC.
We describe two implementations of the optimal error correction algorithm known as the maximum likelihood decoder (MLD) for the 2D surface code with a noiseless syndrome extraction. First, we show how to implement MLD exactly in time $O(n^2)$, where
$n$ is the number of code qubits. Our implementation uses a reduction from MLD to simulation of matchgate quantum circuits. This reduction however requires a special noise model with independent bit-flip and phase-flip errors. Secondly, we show how to implement MLD approximately for more general noise models using matrix product states (MPS). Our implementation has running time $O(nchi^3)$ where $chi$ is a parameter that controls the approximation precision. The key step of our algorithm, borrowed from the DMRG method, is a subroutine for contracting a tensor network on the two-dimensional grid. The subroutine uses MPS with a bond dimension $chi$ to approximate the sequence of tensors arising in the course of contraction. We benchmark the MPS-based decoder against the standard minimum weight matching decoder observing a significant reduction of the logical error probability for $chige 4$.
Applications where multiple users communicate with a common server and desire low latency are common and increasing. This paper studies a network with two source nodes, one relay node and a destination node, where each source nodes wishes to transmit
a sequence of messages, through the relay, to the destination, who is required to decode the messages with a strict delay constraint $T$. The network with a single source node has been studied in cite{Silas2019}. We start by introducing two important tools: the delay spectrum, which generalizes delay-constrained point-to-point transmission, and concatenation, which, similar to time sharing, allows combinations of different codes in order to achieve a desired regime of operation. Using these tools, we are able to generalize the two schemes previously presented in cite{Silas2019}, and propose a novel scheme which allows us to achieve optimal rates under a set of well-defined conditions. Such novel scheme is further optimized in order to improve the achievable rates in the scenarios where the conditions for optimality are not met.
A lower bound on the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding error exponent of linear block code ensembles, on the erasure channel, is developed. The lower bound turns to be positive, over an ensemble specific interval of erasure probabilities, when the ens
emble weight spectral shape function tends to a negative value as the fractional codeword weight tends to zero. For these ensembles we can therefore lower bound the block-wise ML decoding threshold. Two examples are presented, namely, linear random parity-check codes and fixed-rate Raptor codes with linear random precoders. While for the former a full analytical solution is possible, for the latter we can lower bound the ML decoding threshold on the erasure channel by simply solving a 2 x 2 system of nonlinear equations.
Raptor codes have been widely used in many multimedia broadcast/multicast applications. However, our understanding of Raptor codes is still incomplete due to the insufficient amount of theoretical work on the performance analysis of Raptor codes, par
ticularly under maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding, which provides an optimal benchmark on the system performance for the other decoding schemes to compare against. For the first time, this paper provides an upper bound and a lower bound, on the packet error performance of Raptor codes under ML decoding, which is measured by the probability that all source packets can be successfully decoded by a receiver with a given number of successfully received coded packets. Simulations are conducted to validate the accuracy of the analysis. More specifically, Raptor codes with different degree distribution and pre-coders, are evaluated using the derived bounds with high accuracy.
