Description
Self-dual quantum Hamming code that admits permutation-based CZ logical gates. The code is constructed using the CSS construction from the \([15,11,3]\) Hamming code and its \([15,4,8]\) dual code.
Transversal Gates
CNOT gate because it is a CSS code.Single-qubit Clifford operations applied transversally yield the corresponding Clifford gates on one of the logical qubits [4].Automorphism groups of the underlying classical codes can yield transversal Clifford gates when combined with qubit permutations [5; Sec. IV.A].Transversal CCZ gate [6].
Gates
CZ gates can be performed using qubit permutations, and a CCZ gate can be performed using four ancilla qubits [4].
Fault Tolerance
Clifford gates can be performed fault-tolerantly using two ancillary flag qubits, and a CCZ gate can be performed using four ancilla qubits [4].

- Perfect quantum code — \([[15, 7, 3]]\) quantum Hamming code is perfect as a CSS code, i.e., the number of its \(Z\)-type syndromes matches the number of \(X\)-type Pauli errors up to weight one [4].
- \([[15,1,3]]\) quantum Reed-Muller code — Gauging six of the seven logical qubits of the \([[15,7,3]]\) code yields the \([[15,1,3]]\) code [7].
