Non-commutative graphs and quantum error correction for a two-mode quantum oscillator

Abstract: An important topic in quantum information is the theory of error correction codes. Practical situations often involve quantum systems with states in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space, for example coherent states. Motivated by these practical needs, we apply the theory of non-commutative graphs, which is a tool to analyze error correction codes, to infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces. As an explicit example, a family of non-commutative graphs associated with the Schr\"odinger equation describing the dynamics of a two-mode quantum oscillator is constructed and maximal quantum anticliques for these graphs are found.
