Several families of MDS QECCs and MDS EAQECCs from Hermitian self-orthogonal GRS codes

Maximum distance separable (MDS) quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) and MDS entanglement-assisted QECCs (EAQECCs) play significant roles in quantum information theory. In this paper, we construct several new families of MDS QECCs and MDS EAQECCs by utilizing Hermitian self-orthogonal generalized Reed–Solomon codes. These newly obtained MDS QECCs contain some known classes of MDS QECCs as subclasses and some of them have larger minimum distance. In addition, many q-ary MDS QECCs and MDS EAQECCs in our constructions have length exceeding q+1\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$q+1$$\end{document} and minimum distance surpassing q2+1\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\frac{q}{2}+1$$\end{document}.
