Abstract

One major problem faced by quantum computing is how vulnerable qubits are to noise. Given this, the importance of quantum error correction in the field of quantum computing cannot be understated. Much research has been done on this topic, and many models of quantum error correction codes (QECCs) have been created. However, quantum finite automata (QFAs) as a model is not widely researched in this field. Using QFAs as models for linear QECCs, often modeled using quantum circuits, may provide an alternative means of analysis. Quantum circuits and one-way QFAs have similar structures and elements that allow quantum circuits to be easily adapted into QFAs. This paper aims to discuss (a) basic circuit simulation using QFAs and (b) how it can be used to model simple linear QECCs.
