Supplementary data and validation code for: An explicit stabilizer code from E8 x E8 exceptional root data
Description
This archive contains the machine-readable supplementary material for the paper An explicit stabilizer code from E8 × E8 exceptional root data by Ali Rubaidi, submitted to Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical.
Contents:
- e8_qec_code.py — Complete [[496, 240]] stabilizer code construction from E8×E8 root data, including binary symplectic check matrix, commutation verification, rank computation, and dressed distance analysis.
- e8_root_system.py — E8 root system construction (240 roots: 112 Type I + 128 Type II), Cartan matrix, and lattice properties.
- fast_distance_search.py — Optimized exhaustive weight-2 dressed distance search using syndrome precomputation and GF(2) row-reduction.
- run_all_tests.py — Full validation suite (22 tests across 5 suites) reproducing all claims in the paper.
- e8_inflation.py, e8_cmb.py, e8_emergence.py — Companion physics modules.
- README.md — Usage instructions and verification protocol.
- requirements.txt — Python dependencies (NumPy, SciPy).
Key verifiable claims:
- 256 stabilizer generators on 496 qubits; pairwise commutation (HΩHT = 0)
- Binary rank 256 giving k = 240 encoded qubits
- 16 weight-1 Cartan logical Z operators (dmin = 1)
- No weight-1 logicals on 480 root qubits
- Exactly 240 weight-2 ZαZ−α logicals on opposite-root pairs (ddressed = 2)
