We will first construct an efficiently decodable holographic quantum code that reproduces certain properties of AdS/CFT, such as the Ryu-Takayanagi formula and subregion duality, much like other known holographic codes. In this talk, I will touch on two related topics on how space-time and gravity can emerge from approximate quantum error correction codes. In AdS/CFT, the bulk space-time geometry and gravitational interactions can emerge from the boundary CFT. Towards emergent space-time in approximate quantum error correction codes Finally, it’s interesting to note that the set of operators that are approximately correctable by a given recovery operation does not necessarily form an algebra, in contrast to the perfect error correction situation.Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science He also provides a generalization of these results to approximate error correction of sub system codes, which is a nice bonus. The idea is that if the complementary channel, when restricted to a given subspace, is within a small distance of a channel that maps everything to a fixed operator (where distance is measured via the diamond norm), then that subspace is approximately correctable (and he of course quantifies the “small distance” and “approximately”). It turns out that there is a natural way to generalize this formulation of the Knill-Laflamme conditions. The idea was that the Knill-Laflamme conditions can be restated in terms of the complementary channel in a very natural way: a given subspace is correctable for a channel if and only if the complementary channel sends everything supported on that subspace to a single fixed operator (another way of saying this is that the subspace is private for the complementary channel, a connection that was explored by Kretschmann, Kribs and Spekkens in 2007). The main result of the talk was a generalization of the Knill-Laflamme conditions to the realm of approximate quantum error correction (as opposed to perfect quantum error correction). That and my name was mentioned in the talk. It’s not particularly surprising that this talk spoke to me pretty directly, as it deals with the same approach to the same subarea of the same field of research that I do. A necessary condition for approximate quantum error correction Cedric Bény Wim van Dam and Qingqing Yuan show that if the memory checker is allowed to act in a quantum mechanical manner, then the complexity of the problem is reduced to s × t ∈ Ω(polylog(n)). Score 1 for quantum algorithms. and in 2005 by Naor and Rothblum: s × t ∈ Ω(n), where n is the size of the data on the public server, s is the size of the data stored on the private server, and t is the number of queries made to the public server. The question of how large the hash (or whatever encoding of the information you use) must be was answered in 1994 by Blum et al. The obvious improvement to this is to use some sort of hashing function on the contents of the public server, store the results on a private server, and then check to see if the hash of your retrieved data equals the hash of the stored data whenever you access the public server. This carries the obvious problem that you have to keep two copies of all of the data. When data is requested from the public server, check to see if it matched the data on the private server, and you’re good to go. One obvious (albeit largely useless) approach to making sure that the public server has not been tampered with is to simply keep a copy of its entire contents on a private server as well.

The online memory checking question of interest is then how to make sure that the requested information has not been tampered with. Because the server is public, an adversary could tamper with its data, rendering the information that you retrieve useless. In his talk on online memory checking, Wim van Dam described the problem of trying to retrieve data from an unreliable and public server. Quantum algorithm for online memory checking Wim van Dam and Qingqing Yuan There were some fifteen or so talks, and here I’ll describe two of my personal favourites. I spent the beginning of this week at the 4th Workshop on Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography, and I decided that I might as well post some information and thoughts about it since it was probably the best quantum workshop that I’ve attended thus far (not least because it was only three days long and the Institute for Quantum Computing knows how to do food right).
