\(((5+2r,3\times 2^{2r+1},2))\) Rains code[1]
Description
Member of a family of \(((5+2r,3\times 2^{2r+1},2))\) CWS codes; see also [3,4][2; Exam. 8].
Parents
- Codeword stabilized (CWS) code — The \(((5+2r,3\times 2^{2r+1},2))\) qubit code family is a CWS family whose graph state is the union of the ring and Bell-pair graphs [5,6].
- Small-distance block quantum code
Child
- \(((5,6,2))\) qubit code — The \(((5,6,2))\) code is the smallest nontrivial Rains code [7] (see also [8][2; Exam. 8]).
Cousin
- Smolin-Smith-Wehner (SSW) code — The SSW code outperforms the Rains codes in terms of code parameters at odd \(n > 11\) [5,6].
