Today Maria’s paper “On certain self-orthogonal AG codes with applications to Quantum error-correcting codes” appeared in the journal Designs, Codes and Cryptography, as a joint work with Daniele Bartoli and Giovanni Zini. Here, a construction of quantum codes from self-orthogonal algebraic geometry codes is provided as well as on a new family of algebraic curves to which the construction is applied, named Swiss curves. The reason behind this curious name, is that the authors developed the key ideas proposed in this publication during the conference SIAM AG19, which took place in Bern (Switzerland). A preprint is available here.
