Claim 15:
16. A non-transitory, computer-readable, medium storing program instructions that, when executed on or across one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
receive one or more stabilizer measurements of a merged surface and color quantum code comprising a plurality of qubits and a plurality of stabilizers; and
decode the one or more stabilizer measurements of the merged surface and color quantum code, wherein to decode the one or more stabilizer measurements, the program instructions further cause the one or more processors to:
perform an error correction onto one or more selected qubits of a given number of qubits located at a border of a quantum surface code portion and a quantum color code portion of the merged surface and color quantum code;
perform another error correction onto one or more selected qubits of a given number of qubits located within the quantum surface code portion; and
perform an additional error correction onto one or more selected qubits of a given number of qubits located within the quantum color code portion.
