MDS codes with Hermitian hulls of arbitrary dimensions and their quantum error correction
share
The Hermitian hull of linear codes plays an important role in coding theory and quantum coding theory. In this paper, we first construct some infinite classes of MDS codes over finite field by considering generalized Reed-Solomon codes or extended generalized Reed- Solomon codes and determine their Hermitian hulls. The results indicate that these codes constructed have Hermitian hulls of (almost) arbitrary dimensions. Furthermore, based on these MDS codes constructed with Hermitian hulls of arbitrary dimensions, we obtain several infinite classes of entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting (EAQEC) MDS codes whose maximally entangled states c can take almost all values. Moreover, most of the EAQEC MDS codes constructed are new in the sense that their parameters are different from all the previously known ones.
