Summary

A sheaf-code construction also produced an almost-good family whose full code space carries long-range magic.

The framework gauges sheaf codes through cup products, uses explicit logical representatives and proves protection against arbitrary low-weight errors under the stated construction. It is a mathematical coding result, not a fabricated code family demonstrated on quantum hardware.

Why it matters

A sheaf-code construction also produced an almost-good family whose full code space carries long-range magic.

Limits and context

  • It is a mathematical coding result, not a fabricated code family demonstrated on quantum hardware.

Key claims

  1. A sheaf-code construction also produced an almost-good family whose full code space carries long-range magic.

    Qualification: It is a mathematical coding result, not a fabricated code family demonstrated on quantum hardware.
