  • Abstract
    In this paper, we propose a definition of the dual code of a quantum convolutional code, with or without entanglement assistance. We then derive a MacWilliams identity for quantum convolutional codes. Along the way, we obtain a direct proof of the MacWilliams identity, first found by Gluesing-Luerssen and Schneider, in the setting of classical convolutional codes.
