In this paper, a detailed review of the theory of decoherence-free subspaces and subsystems focusing on their usefulness for preservation of quantum information is provided. But the authors do not consider the decoherent properties of the subsystems.
Abstract
Decoherence is the phenomenon of non-unitary dynamics that arises as a consequence of coupling between a system and its environment. It has important harmful implications for quantum information processing, and various solutions to the problem have been proposed. Here we provide a detailed a review of the theory of decoherence-free subspaces and subsystems, focusing on their usefulness for preservation of quantum information.

An Introduction to Quantum Error Correction and Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computation

TL;DR: The threshold theorem states that it is possible to create a quantum computer to perform an arbitrary quantum computation provided the error rate per physical gate or time step is below some constant threshold value.

Quantum Zeno dynamics: mathematical and physical aspects

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the physical and mathematical aspects of the quantum quantum Zeno effect and propose alternative strategies to obtain a quantum quantum zeno dynamics and show that they are physically equivalent.

How to quantify coherence: Distinguishing speakable and unspeakable notions

TL;DR: In this paper, a general framework for studying quantum coherence as a resource is presented, where coherence is classified as "speakable" or "unspeakable", depending on whether or not the identity of the subspaces that appear in the coherent superposition is significant.

Optical Coherence and Quantum Optics

Leonard Mandel, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a systematic account of optical coherence theory within the framework of classical optics, as applied to such topics as radiation from sources of different states of coherence, foundations of radiometry, effects of source coherence on the spectra of radiated fields, and scattering of partially coherent light by random media.

On the Generators of Quantum Dynamical Semigroups

TL;DR: In this paper, the notion of a quantum dynamical semigroup is defined using the concept of a completely positive map and an explicit form of a bounded generator of such a semigroup onB(ℋ) is derived.

Quantum computation with quantum dots

TL;DR: In this paper, a universal set of one-and two-quantum-bit gates for quantum computation using the spin states of coupled single-electron quantum dots is proposed, and the desired operations are effected by the gating of the tunneling barrier between neighboring dots.
