Editorial decision: submit as a Physical Review A Regular Article, primary section A-2E — Quantum Information Science, secondary fit A-1E — open quantum systems and decoherence. PRX Quantum is not recommended at the present evidence level because the corpus does not yet establish a hardware resource advantage, experimental validation, or a field-level milestone.

Submission thesis

The defensible paper is not a claim that decoherence-free subsystems or dissipative preparation are new. Its contribution is the constructive synthesis of four pieces:

  1. An arbitrary selected set of total-spin labels is compiled into a Casimir polynomial whose kernel is exactly the chosen union of isotypic components.
  2. The positive penalty gives an exact orthogonal-selector limit and a sharp optimal fixed step.
  3. The distinctions among a Hilbert-space filter, a completely positive trace-nonincreasing operation, a CPTP dephasing channel, a dark subspace, and a quantum error-correcting code are made explicit.
  4. A new, full-carrier GKSL reset construction pumps population into the selected subspace deterministically and has a closed-form semigroup and Liouvillian gap.

The proposed title is Casimir-polynomial compilation and dissipative preparation of symmetry-selected quantum subspaces.

General selector theorem, optimal constant step, and finite specialization checks.
Correct CPTP block-dephasing channel, fixed algebra, and block dimensions.
Correct separation of postselected projection, collective-noise noiseless multiplicities, and full Knill–Laflamme correction.
Valid model-specific dark-subspace claim for jump L=K; excluded as a generic environmental-noise claim.
Corrected K(12)=-108, current spectral endpoints, and evidence-provenance boundaries.
Direct numerical residuals and reproducibility architecture.
and Used to identify the missing obligation: neither establishes full 125-dimensional deterministic population transfer. The submission supplies that completion separately.
