Entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes, which can be seen as a generalization of quantum error-correcting codes, can be constructed from arbitrary classical linear codes by relaxing the self-orthogonality properties and using pre-shared entangled states between the sender and the receiver, and can also improve the performance of quantum error-correcting codes. In this paper, we construct some families of entanglement-assisted quantum maximum-distance-separable codes with parameters $[[\frac{{{q^2} - 1}}{a},\frac{{{q^2} - 1}}{a} - 2d+2 + c,d;c]]_q$, where $q$ is a prime power with the form $q = am \pm \ell$, $a = \frac{{\ell^2} - 1}{3}$ is an odd integer, $\ell \equiv 2\ (\bmod\ 6)$ or $\ell \equiv 4\ (\bmod\ 6)$, and $m$ is a positive integer. Most of these codes are new in the sense that their parameters are not covered by the codes available in the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
