Theory of quantum information and computation has been extensively investigated
in the last two decades. Interactions between a quantum system with environment cause undesirable changes in the state of the quantum system.
In the case of qubits, they appear as bit-flip and phase-flip errors, for example.
To reduce such errors, we must build in some sort of error correcting mechanism in the algorithm.
This course will introduce several constructions or construction methods of quantum codes
as well as techniques of constructions of quantum convolutional codes available in the literature.
