2T-qutrit code[1]
Description
Two-mode qutrit code constructed out of superpositions of coherent states whose amplitudes make up the binary tetrahedral group \(2T\).
The codespace is a particular three-dimensional subspace of the 24-dimensional two-mode coherent-state subspace, \begin{align} \mathrm{Span}( \{|\sqrt{2} e^{i (2k+1) \pi/4} \alpha\rangle |0\rangle, |0\rangle |\sqrt{2} e^{i (2k+1) \pi/4} \alpha\rangle, |e^{i k\pi/2} \alpha\rangle |e^{i \ell \pi/2} \alpha\rangle \: : \: 0\leq k, \ell \leq 3\}) \tag*{(1)}\end{align} for any \(\alpha \geq 0\). A basis can be constructed whose elements are equal superpositions of coherent states whose amplitudes make up cosets of the quaternion subgroup \(Q\) in \(2T\).

Parent
- Quantum spherical code (QSC) — The \(2T\)-qutrit is a QSC on the two-dimensional complex sphere whose code constellation is the \(4\{3\}4\) complex polytope.
Cousin
- Two-mode binomial code — The \(2T\)-qutrit code reduces to the two-mode "0-2-4" binomial code as \(\alpha\to 0\).
