Quantum error-correcting codes and 4-dimensional arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds

Using 4-dimensional arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds, we construct some new homological quantum error correcting codes. They are LDPC codes with linear rate and distance $n^ε$. Their rate is evaluated via Euler characteristic arguments and their distance using $\mathbb{Z}_2$-systolic geometry. This construction answers a queston of Zémor, who asked whether homological codes with such parameters could exist at all.
