The Penrose Tiling is a Quantum Error-Correcting Code
Zhi Li; Latham Boyle · arXiv · 2024 · Theoretical preprint; version 2
Original publication · Original publication
Recorded summary
Li and Boyle construct quantum error-correcting codes from Penrose tilings and variants based on Ammann–Beenker and Fibonacci tilings. Their construction connects nonperiodic geometric structure with the ability to recover information after local errors or erasures.
Recorded limitations
This is a mathematical construction in a preprint, not an experimental demonstration on Aquila. Its Fibonacci tilings are different from the Atlas M9 P24 sequences. A physical implementation and its resource requirements remain separate questions.
Evidence and provenance
Chapter Trust Factor uses a minimum of three distinct qualifying studies. Publication records retain their own evidence and assessment.
