Certified Non-Degenerate Maximum-Likelihood Benchmarking of Quantum LDPC Decoders

The measured logical error rate of a quantum low-density parity-check (QLDPC) code depends on the decoding algorithm. We develop a framework that certifies non-degenerate maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding outcomes on individual sampled shots under circuit-level noise, providing a common reference for comparing decoders...
