Abstract: In this paper we consider stabilizer codes over local Frobenius rings. First, we study the relative minimum distances of a stabilizer code and its reduction onto the residue field. We show that for various scenarios, a free stabilizer code over the ring does not underperform the according stabilizer code over the field. This leads us to conjecture that the same is true for all free stabilizer codes. Secondly, we focus on the isometries of stabilizer codes. We present some preliminary results and introduce some interesting open problems.


This paper generalize some results on quantum stabilizer codes over finite chain rings to finite local commutative Frobenius rings. Authors showed that a free stabilizer code of finite dimension is symplectically isometric to a free self-orthogonal code and gave its symplectic dual which is also free. Generator matrices in standard form for these codes are also provided. They proved that for a free stabilizer code, the minimum distance is equal to the minimum distance of its reduction, and the relative minimum distance is always at most the relative minimum distance of its reduction. However authors conjectured that these two relative minimum distances are equal for free stabilizer codes. Many examples are provided to illustrate the comparison between minimum and relative minimum distance of a stabilizer code over a finite local Frobenius ring to minimum and relative minimum distance over its reduction. For a finite local Frobenius ring \(R\), they proved that every symplectic isometry \(f\colon R^{2n} \to R^{2n}\) is a monomial map; and showed that symplectic isometries between stabilizer codes does not necessarily extend to such isometries on the entire space. This led authors to provide some open problems.
