“…Traditionally, quantum codes were only studied in the symmetric case, but by now the literature contains a great number of works studying either of the two types of codes. In this work, we only consider symmetric codes, and some recent developments in this field are [7,18,19,21,22,25,31]. In this setting, the code parameters are commonly written in the form [[n, k, d]] q , and we will follow this convention.…”
