What changed
Compatible nested binary linear codes produce a quantum code whose bit- and phase-error syndromes can be corrected without measuring the encoded information. The construction corrects arbitrary errors on a bounded number of physical qubits and gives asymptotically positive-rate families for a small fixed correctable error fraction.
Scientific scope
Compatible nested binary linear codes produce a quantum code whose bit- and phase-error syndromes can be corrected without measuring the encoded information. The construction corrects arbitrary errors on a bounded number of physical qubits and gives asymptotically positive-rate families for a small fixed correctable error fraction. This is a block-code construction and existence result, including the seven-qubit example, not a complete noisy-gate fault-tolerance threshold or an efficient explicit construction at every asymptotic bound. Correlated errors confined to the correctable support are allowed; transmission guarantees for errors on many qubits require extra noise assumptions.
Evidence
The linked original works support the scoped statement and contribution attribution. WRS has not independently replayed experiments or reconstructed a full mathematical proof.
