And we're off for QEC26! Starting with a tutorial from Annie, Adrien, and Adnaan from Riverlane.

Amazing discovery.
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.

I wrote a paper on time travel while I was at Caltech (closed timelike curves we say so as to not sound so crazy). I wonder if future me will show up.
In this SFI Seminar, Eric Goles of the University of Adolfo Ibáñez explores fungal automata, a cellular automaton model in which information flows only horizontally or vertically. He shows that despite these constraints, it can simulate arbitrary Boolean circuits and are computationally universal.

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...
