contents The Pauli stabilizer formalism is perhaps the most thoroughly studied means of procuring quantum error-correcting codes, whereby the code is obtained through commutative Pauli operators and ``stabilized'' by them. In this work we will show that every quantum error-correcting code, including Pauli stabilizer codes and subsystem codes, has a similar structure, in that the code can be stabilized by commutative ``Paulian'' operators which share many features with Pauli operators and which form a \textbf{Paulian stabilizer group}. By facilitating a controlled gate we can measure these Paulian operators to acquire the error syndrome. Examples concerning codeword stabilized codes and bosonic codes will be presented; specifically, one of the examples has been demonstrated experimentally and the observable for detecting the error turns out to be Paulian, thereby showing the potential utility of this approach. This work provides a possible approach to implement error-correcting codes and to find new codes.
