Clifford codes are a class of quantum error control codes that form a natural generalization of stabilizer codes. These codes were introduced in 1996 by Knill, but only a single Clifford code was known, which is not already a stabilizer code. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition that allows to decide when a Clifford code is a stabilizer code, and compile a table of all true Clifford c...

Knill introduced a generalization of stabilizer codes, in this note called Clifford codes. It remained unclear whether or not Clifford codes can be superior to stabilizer codes. We show that Clifford codes are stabilizer codes provided that the abstract error group has an abelian index group. In particular, if the errors are modelled by tensor products of Pauli matrices, then the associated Cli...

in [1,2,3], a. c. baker and j.w. baker studied the subspace ma(s) of the convolution measure algebra m, (s) of a locally compact semigroup. h. dzinotyiweyi in [5,7] considers an analogous measure space on a large class of c-distinguished topological semigroups containing all completely regular topological semigroups. in this paper, we extend the definitions to study the weighted semigroup algeb...

Let S be a locally compact topological foundation semigroup with identity and Ma(S) be its semigroup algebra. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions to have abounded approximate identity in closed codimension one ideals of the semigroup algebra $M_a(S)$ of a locally compact topological foundationsemigroup with identity.

Clifford algebras have broad applications in science and engineering. The use of Clifford algebras can be further promoted in these fields by availability of computational tools that automate tedious routine calculations. We offer an extensive demonstration of the applications of Clifford algebras in electromagnetism using the geometric algebra G ≡ Cl3,0 as a computational model in the Maxima c...

Let ~ C be a category whose objects are semigroups with topology and morphisms are closed semigroup relations, in particular, continuous homomorphisms. An object X of the category ~ C is called ~ C-closed if for each morphism Φ ⊂ X×Y in the category ~ C the image Φ(X) = {y ∈ Y : ∃x ∈ X (x, y) ∈ Φ} is closed in Y. In the paper we survey existing and new results on topological groups, which are ~...

We initiate the study of interval-valued fuzzy quasi-ideal of a semigroup. In Section 2, we list some basic definitions in the later sections. In Section 3, we investigate interval-valued fuzzy subsemigroups and in Section 4, we define intervalvalued fuzzy quasi-ideals and establish some of their basic properties. In Section 5, we obtain characterizations of regular and intraregular semigroups ...

It has been well known that the band of idempotents of a naturally ordered orthodox semigroup satisfying the “strong Dubreil-Jacotin condition” forms a normal band. In the literature, the naturally ordered orthodox semigroups satisfying the strong Dubreil-Jacotin condition were first considered by Blyth and Almeida Santos in 1992. Based on the name “epigroup” in the paper of Blyth and Almeida S...

The syntactic semigroup problem is to decide whether a given finite semigroup is syntactic or not. This work investigates the syntactic semigroup problem for both the semigroup reducts of A(Bn), the affine nearsemiring over a Brandt semigroup Bn. It is ascertained that both the semigroup reducts of A(Bn) are syntactic semigroups.

In this paper we establish a characterization of abelian compact Hausdorff semigroups with unique idempotent and ideal retraction property. We also introduce a function algebra on a semitopological semigroup whose associated semigroup compactification is universal withrespect to these properties.
