\([[2m,2m-2,2]]\) error-detecting code[1,2] 

Also known as Iceberg code.

Description

CSS stabilizer code for \(m\geq 2\) with generators \(\{XX\cdots X, ZZ\cdots Z\} \) acting on all \(2m\) physical qubits. Admits a basis such that each codeword is a superposition of a computational basis state labeled by a bitstring \(b\) and a state labeled by the negation of \(b\). Such states generalize the two-qubit Bell states and three-qubit GHz states and are often called (qubit) cat states or poor-man's GHz states.

Protection

Detects a single-qubit error.

Encoding

Adaptive constant-depth circuit with geometrically local gates and measurements throughout [3,4].

Transversal Gates

Transveral CNOT gates can be performed by first teleporting qubits into different code blocks [2].

Gates

Universal set of gates, each of which is supported on two qubits [5].

Fault Tolerance

Two-qubit fault-tolerant state preparation, error detection and projective measurements [6] (see also [5]).CNOT and Hadamard gates using only two extra qubits and four-qubit fault-tolerant CCZ gate [7].

Realizations

Trapped-ion devices: 12-qubit device by Quantinuum [5]. Subsequent experiment performed Bayesian Quantum Phase Estimation on the \(m=3\) code [8].

Notes

See description of the code in Ref. [9].
