Excited to share our new work led by fantastic undergraduate research student Cassie Hopkin.
We show that many translation invariant qLDPC codes can be viewed as compactifications of a single parent fracton code that is local in a higher dimension.

Quantum error-correcting codes with translation symmetry and local checks have been studied extensively, leading to a wide variety of fracton codes in three or more dimensions which lack a complete un...
