Generalized 2D color code[1]
Description
Member of a family of non-Abelian 2D topological codes, defined by a finite group \( G \), that serves as a generalization of the color code (for which \(G=\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2\)). Hamiltonians are stabilized by group-based right- and left-multiplication \(X\)-type as well as \(Z\)-type error operators.Cousin
- Modular-qudit color code— The generalized color code for \(G=\mathbb{Z}_q\) reduces to the 2D modular-qudit color code.

A generalized color code for group \(G\) on the 4.8.8 lattice is equivalent to a \(G\) quantum double model and another \(G/[G,G]\) quantum double model defined using the Abelianization of \(G\).
