\([[6,2,2]]\) \(C_6\) code[1] 

Description

Error-detecting self-dual CSS code used in concatenation schemes for fault-tolerant quantum computation. A set of stabilizer generators is \(IIXXXX\) and \(XXIIXX\), together with the same two \(Z\)-type generators.

Magic

Various magic-state distillation protocols exist for the \([[4,2,2]]\) qubit code and the \([[6,2,2]]\) \(C_6\) code in what are known as Meier-Eastin-Knill (MEK) protocols [2]. For example, the magic-state yield parameter is \(\gamma = \log_2 5 \approx 2.322\) for a protocol using the \([[10,2,2]]\) code [3; Box 2]; see also [4; Table IV].

Fault Tolerance

Concatenations of \([[4,2,2]]\) and \([[6,2,2]]\) \(C_6\) codes yield fault-tolerant quantum computation schemes [1] (see also Ref. [5]).Concatenations of quantum Hamming codes with the \([[4,2,2]]\) and \([[6,2,2]]\) \(C_6\) codes yield fault-tolerant quantum computation with constant space and quasi-polylogarithmic time overheads [6,7].
