Quantum pin code[1]
Description
Member of a family of CSS codes that encompasses both quantum Reed-Muller and color codes and that is defined using intersections of pinned sets.
Magic
A family of punctured pin codes admits \(\gamma \approx 1.6\) [1; Table VII].
Parents
- Generalized homological-product qubit CSS code — One can construct quantum pin codes from any chain complex [1; Sec. II.F].
- \(k\)-orthogonal code — Quantum pin codes are \(\ell\)-orthogonal, i.e., the overlap between any \(\ell\) stabilizers is even [1].
Children
- Quantum Reed-Muller code — Quantum Reed-Muller codes are special cases of quantum pin codes [1; Sec. II.D]
- Color code — Color codes are special cases of quantum pin codes [1; Sec. II.E]
Cousin
- Subsystem color code — Quantum pin codes have a subsystem version that can be viewed as a generalization of subsystem color codes [1].
