Steane-Enlargement of Quantum Codes from the Hermitian Curve
share
In this paper, we study the construction of quantum codes by applying Steane-enlargement to codes from the Hermitian curve. We cover Steane-enlargement of both usual one-point Hermitian codes and of order bound improved Hermitian codes. In particular, the paper contains two constructions of quantum codes whose parameters are described by explicit formulae, and we show that these codes compare favourably to existing, comparable constructions in the literature.
