Abstract

The entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting (EAQEC) codes have the potential to greatly generalize and enhance the performance of existing quantum error-correcting codes. In this paper, we investigate EAQEC codes of length \(\frac{q^2-1}{r}\), where r is a positive divisor of \(q+1\). Most of these codes are new, and some of them have better performance than ones obtained in the literature. The resulting EAQEC codes are maximum-distance-separable (MDS) if the minimum distance \(d\le \frac{n+2}{2}\).
