QEC is based on three central ideas: digitization of noise, the manipulation of error operators and syndromes, and quantum error correcting code (QECC). Girvin These lecture notes from the 2019 Les Houches Summer School on Quantum Information Machines are intended to provide an introduction to classical and quantum error correction with bits and qubits, and with continuous variable systems (harmonic oscillators).

The information is stored in a quantum error-correcting code, which is a subspace in a larger Hilbert space.

Quantum error correction is a set of methods to protect quantum information-that is, quantum states-from unwanted environmental interactions (decoherence) and other forms of noise.
