3-d topological quantum memory with a power-law energy barrier
Kamil P Michnicki
We discuss energy barriers and their relationship to self-correcting quantum memories. We introduce the solid code, a 3-d version of Kitaev's surface code, and then combine several…

3-d quantum stabilizer codes with a power law energy barrier
Kamil Michnicki
We introduce a new primitive, called welding, for combining two stabilizer codes to produce a new stabilizer code. We apply welding to construct surface codes and then use the surf…

Operator Methods for the Time Evolution of Wave Functions
K. P. Michnicki
A method based off of operator consideration for solving the time evolution of a wave function is developed. The method is applied to free space, constant force and harmonic oscill…
