CSS-T code[1] 

Description

A CSS code for which a physical transversal \(T\) gate is either the identity (up to a global phase) or a logical gate. CSS-T codes are constructed from a pair of linear binary codes via the CSS construction, with the pair satisfying certain conditions [2].

Transversal Gates

A physical transversal \(T\) gate is either the identity (up to a global phase) or a logical gate [3].

  • Linear binary code — CSS-T codes are constructed from a pair of linear binary codes via the CSS construction, with the pair satisfying certain conditions [2].
  • Cyclic linear binary code — Binary cyclic and extended cyclic codes can be used to construct CSS-T codes via the CSS construction [2].
  • Quantum Reed-Muller code — Certain quantum RM codes are CSS-T codes [2,4,5].
  • Triorthogonal code — Triorthogonal and CSS-T codes overlap, but neither is a subset of the other [6]. CSS-T codes reduce to triorthogonal codes when the logical action of the physical transversal \(T\) gate is a logical \(T\) gate on all encoded qubits. Triorthogonality is necessary for physical transversal \(T\) gates on each qubit to realize the identity logical gate [3; Thm. 12]. The \(X\)-type stabilizer generator matrix for a CSS-T code is always triorthogonal [2; Corr. 5].
