abstract = {Quantum information theory has shown strong connections
with classical statistical physics. For example, quantum
error correcting codes like the surface and the color code
present a tolerance to qubit loss that is related to the
classical percolation threshold of the lattices where the
codes are defined. Here we explore such connection to study
analytically the tolerance of the color code when the
protocol introduced in Vodola et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 121,
060501 (2018)] to correct qubit losses is applied. This
protocol is based on the removal of the lost qubit from the
code, a neighboring qubit, and the lattice edges where these
two qubits reside. We first obtain analytically the average
fraction of edges r(p) that the protocol erases from the
lattice to correct a fraction p of qubit losses. Then, the
threshold pc below which the logical information is
protected corresponds to the value of p at which r(p) equals
the bond-percolation threshold of the lattice. Moreover, we
prove that the logical information is protected if and only
if the set of lost qubits does not include the entire
support of any logical operator. The results presented here
open a route to an analytical understanding of the effects
of qubit losses in topological quantum error codes.},
