  • Square-lattice GKP code — GKP (rotor GKP) codes protect against shifts in linear (angular) degrees of freedom.
  • Group GKP code — Rotor GKP codes correspond to the \(\mathbb{Z}_{k_1} \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_{k_2} \subset U(1)\) group construction, where \(k=k_2/k_1\).
  • Number-phase code — Number-phase codes are a manifestation of planar-rotor GKP codes in an oscillator. Both codes protect against small shifts in angular degrees of freedom.
