| contents | The quantum error-correcting code in the continuous-variable (CV) system attracts much attention due to its flexibility and high resistance against specific noise. However, the theory of fault tolerance in CV systems is premature and lacks the general strategy to translate the noise in CV systems into the noise in logical qubits, leading to severe restrictions on the correctable noise models. In this paper, we show that the Markovian-type noise in CV systems is translated into the Markovian-type noise in the logical qubits through the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill code with an explicit bound on the noise strength. Combined with the established threshold theorem of the concatenated code against Markovian-type noise, we show that CV quantum computation has a fault-tolerant threshold against general Markovian-type noise, closing the existing crucial gap in CV quantum computation. We also give a new insight into the fact that careful management of the energy of the state is required to achieve fault tolerance in the CV system. |
