The sixth International Conference on Quantum Error Correction (QEC) will be hosted at Doltone House, Darling Island and Doltone House, Jones Bay Wharf by the University of Sydney, Oct. 30 to Nov. 3, 2023.

Quantum correction of decoherence errors and faulty control operations forms the backbone of all quantum information processing. Despite considerable progress on this front since the discovery of quantum error correction codes more than a decade ago, major open problems remain in both theory and applications to real physical systems.

The conference, as it does every year, will bring together experts from academia and industry to discuss theoretical, experimental and technological research toward fault-tolerant quantum computation. Topics include control, error correction and fault tolerance, and their interface with physics, computer science and technology research.

Topics of interest will include: fault tolerance and thresholds, pulse control methods (dynamical decoupling), hybrid methods, applications to cryptography, decoherence-free subspaces and noiseless subsystems, operator quantum error correction, advanced codes (convolutional codes, catalytic, entanglement assisted, …), topological codes, fault tolerance in the cluster model, fault tolerance in linear optics QC, fault tolerance in condensed matter systems, unification of error correction paradigms, self-correcting systems, error correction/avoidance via energy gaps, error correction in adiabatic QC, composite pulses, continuous-time QEC, error correction for specific errors (e.g., spontaneous emission), etc.
