Root code for the Group Kingdom
Description
Encodes \(K\) states (codewords) in coordinates labeled by elements of a group \(G\). The number of codewords may be infinite for infinite groups, so various restricted versions have to be constructed in practice.Cousins
- Group-based quantum code— Group-based quantum codes are quantum counterparts of group-alphabet codes.
- Symmetric-space code— Group spaces for Lie groups \(G\) are symmetric spaces [1; Table 6.1].

Parents
Homogeneous spaces \(G/H\) for trivial \(H\) reduce to group spaces. A group-\(G\) space can also be thought of as a multiplicity-free homogeneous space \((G\times G) / G\) [2; pg. 60].
Group-alphabet code
Children
Analog code alphabets, \(\mathbb{R}^n\) or \(\mathbb{C}^n\), are infinite fields, which are groups under addition.
