Abstract

A family of bosonic quantum error-correcting codes is introduced to boost the reliability of quantum computation schemes against photon loss. These codes, which are based on symmetry properties of three-wave-mixing interactions, are hardware efficient for architectures involving microwave photons stored in superconducting resonators.
