Characterization of Nearly Self-Orthogonal Quasi-Twisted Codes and Related Quantum Codes

Abstract. Quasi-twisted codes are used here as the classical ingredients in the so-called Construction X for quantum error- control codes. The construction utilizes nearly self-orthogonal codes to design quantum stabilizer codes. We expand the choices of the inner product to also cover the symplectic and trace- symplectic inner products, in addition to the original Hermitian one. A refined lower bound on the minimum distance of the resulting quantum codes is established and illustrated. We report numerous record breaking quantum codes from our randomized search for inclusion in the updated online database.

Biography.  Buket Özkaya received the B.S. degree in mathematics from Boğaziçi University, İstanbul, in 2006, the M.S. degree in mathematics from Georg August Universität Göttingen, Germany, in 2009, and the Ph.D. degree in mathematics from Sabancı University, İstanbul, in 2014. She held several post-doctoral research positions with Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Telécom ParisTech, France, Sabancı University, Istanbul, and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. Since 2023, she has been an Assistant Professor with the Institute of Applied Mathematics, Middle East Technical University, Ankara.
