Three-rotor code[1] 

Description

\([[3,1,2]]_{\mathbb Z}\) rotor code that is an extension of the \([[3,1,2]]_3\) qutrit CSS code to the integer alphabet, i.e., the angular momentum states of a planar rotor. The code is \(U(1)\)-covariant and its ideal codewords, \begin{align} |\overline{x}\rangle = \sum_{y\in\mathbb{Z}} \left| -3y,y-x,2(y+x) \right\rangle~, \tag*{(1)}\end{align} where \(x\in\mathbb{Z}\), are not normalizable.

Protection

Normalized codewords approximately protect against erasure while maintaining covariance [2].
