ABSTRACT:
Quantum information processing promises exponential advantages for certain computational and communication tasks, but practical quantum devices are inherently vulnerable to de-coherence and operational imperfections. This thesis develops new algebraic and analytical tools for quantum error correction (QEC) aimed at unifying entanglement-assisted coding theory with operator-algebra frameworks, while also providing mathematically rigorous insights for continuous-variable photonic implementations.
