This broad overview complements a deeper dive into stabilizer and subsystem codes at the 2023 Boulder lectures. Any omitted references can be found in

Curious what you'll think about Lex Fridman's interviews with Balaji and Andreessen.

It's been a very fun and tight-knit collaboration with
Yijia Xu, Yixu Wang, and integer-homology expert Christophe Vuillot!

Codewords normalization and overlap are governed by a Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky (GKZ) hypergeometric function, and we anticipate interesting connections to this deep literature down the road.

Error correction is relatively simple: losses move states into a different Fock subspace, and measuring particular linear combinations of photon numbers determines where the state is. Tracking without correcting is possible with infinite-support Fock-state codes.

Codewords are projected coherent states, unifying many different previously known constructions (pair-cat, two-mode binomial, dual-rail, SU(N) coherent, various repetition codes, some chi-squared codes) while also defining codes from lattices and algebraic varieties.

These CSS-like codes are defined simply from two integer matrices. We can encode qudit, modes, or rotors. Codes can have finite or infinite Fock-state support.
