This paper establishes the fundamental physical limits on recovering fusion qubits within critical Ising chains, demonstrating that vanishing-error recovery necessitates a specific minimum span of physical spins regardless of decoding strategies. By proving that exact interval decoders achieve this bound, the work provides essential theoretical constraints for designing scalable architectures in topological quantum computing and fault-tolerant systems.
Spatial Cost of Recovering a Fusion Qubit in a Critical Spin Chain
arXiv:2611.06215v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vanishing-error recovery of a fusion qubit from a fixed-sector ground doublet of four Kramers--Wannier defects in a critical Ising chain requires at least the shorter three-defect span of physical spins to leading order. Across arbitrary preselected spin sets and unrestricted joint decoding, this bound holds when the thermodynamic limit precedes large spacings at fixed positive ratios. An exact interval decoder attains it. Collective records of both logical axes in the complement force successful near-minimal supports to concentrate in density on a leading-order shortest interval.
