Qubit BCH code[1–5] 

Description

Qubit stabilizer code constructed from a self-orthogonal binary BCH code via the CSS construction, from a Hermitian self-orthogonal quaternary BCH code via the Hermitian construction, or by taking a Euclidean self-orthogonal BCH code over \(GF(2^m)\), converting it to a binary code, and applying the CSS construction.

Gates

Magic-state distillation protocols [6].

Threshold

Semi-analytical estimates of concatenated thresholds [7]. Qubit BCH codes are difficult to study numerically [8].

Notes

Qubit BCH codes for small \(n\) are tabulated in Ref. [5].
