Description
Subsystem stabilizer code obtained from a spacetime circuit code by gauging out logical operators that correspond to circuit faults with trivial effect [3; Sec. 5.4].
An \([[n,k,d]]\) stabilizer code can be mapped into a sparse subsystem code with the same \(k\) and \(d\) as follows. One can take the fault-tolerant syndrome extraction circuit associated with the stabilizer code, construct its spacetime circuit code, and then gauge out qubits corresponding to trivial faults. The subsystem code can be made geometrically local at the cost of more ancilla qubits [1].
Rate
The spacetime circuit code construction is used to show the existance of spatially local subsystem codes that nearly saturate the subsystem BT bound [1].
Fault Tolerance
Fault-tolerant measurement gadget that is a modification based on the DiVincenzo-Shor cat-state method [4,5].

Cousin
- Spacetime circuit code — Spacetime circuit codes can yield subsystem spacetime circuit codes by gauging out a subgroup of the logical Pauli group which causes trivial faults in the corresponding Clifford circuit. This construction is used to show the existance of geometrically local subsystem codes that nearly saturate the subsystem BT bound [1].
