Perturbative Stability and Error-Correction Thresholds of Quantum Codes by Yaodong Li, Nicholas O’Dea, Vedika Khemani

“…To do so, we distinguish space- and timelike defects in the lattice-gauge theory. A high free-energy cost of spacelike defects corresponds to a successful “memory experiment” and suppresses the energy splitting among the ground states, while a high free-energy cost of timelike defects corresponds to a successful “stability experiment” and points to a nonzero gap to local excitations.…”
