Holomorphic Quantum Error Correction Codes

arXiv:2609.19162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We develop a holomorphic representation of quantum error correction codes (QECCs) within the Segal--Bargmann space. By encoding qubits into Schwinger boson modes $(z_{a_j}, z_{b_j})$ subject to a degree-one homogeneity constraint, we derive closed-form differential operator representations for stabilizers, syndrome extraction, and recovery for fundamental codes (three-, five-, seven-, and nine-qubit codes). Quantum errors are characterized as holomorphic perturbations violating this constraint, while syndrome measurement projects onto eigenspaces of commuting differential operators. Restricting to unit-magnitude variables ($|z|=1$) reveals a toroidal space $\T^{2n}$ where error syndromes manifest as discrete translations in winding number space $\Z^{2n}$, and recovery acts as Hamiltonian flows restoring the winding configuration. In the full Segal--Bargmann space, the code space is a holomorphic submanifold of $\CP^{2^n-1}$, with correctable errors as transverse normal directions. Consequently, the Knill--Laflamme condition becomes a Fubini--Study orthogonality condition between the code submanifold and its error-translated images. Topological protection emerges from the $U(1)^n$ fiber bundle structure: global phase noise along fibers is unobservable, while base-space errors require active correction. Finally, we establish a path-integral formulation for semiclassical error correction dynamics and show that geometric entanglement via the Segre embedding naturally quantifies code distance. This framework unifies algebraic, geometric, and topological perspectives on fault-tolerant quantum protocols.
