This research presents a breakthrough in autonomous quantum error correction by demonstrating that self-correcting memory and universal computation are achievable in physically realizable two-dimensional systems without active measurement cycles. By formulating the process as a dissipative quantum cellular automaton with fixed local rules, the study establishes a nonzero noise threshold where logical errors decay exponentially with system size, effectively solving the problem of thermal instability in lower dimensions. This development moves passive QEC from theoretical impossibility to practical implementation, offering a scalable path toward fault-tolerant quantum computers that require minimal external control overhead.
Quantum Memory and Autonomous Computation in Two Dimensions
arXiv:2601.20818v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Quantum error correction (QEC) normally requires active maintenance using measurements, classical processing and externally controlled correction schedules. Passive QEC, by contrast, was previously established only in unphysical spatial dimensions. Here, we give an explicit scheme for autonomous quantum error correction and computation in two dimensions, formulated as a dissipative quantum cellular automaton with a fixed, local and translation-invariant update rule. The construction uses hierarchical, self-simulating control elements based on ideas from the seminal classical results of G\'acs (1986, 1989) together with a measurement-free concatenated quantum code. We prove the existence of a nonzero noise threshold under a local noise model. Below this threshold, logical errors on encoded initial states are suppressed exponentially with increasing system size and the memory lifetime diverges in the thermodynamic limit. As an extension, we outline how this mechanism can also be implemented in continuous time by a time-independent, translation-invariant local Lindbladian. Quantum circuits can moreover be encoded in the automaton's initial state and executed fault-tolerantly with polylogarithmic overhead under the same circuit-independent rule. Our scheme thus realizes a self-correcting quantum computer capable of universal computation.
