\(((n,2,2))\) Bravyi-Lee-Li-Yoshida PI code[1]

Description

PI distance-two code on \(n\geq4\) qubits whose degree of entanglement vanishes asymptotically with \(n\) [1; Appx. D] (cf. [2]).

In terms of Dicke states, the codewords are \begin{align} \begin{split} |0_{L}\rangle&=\sqrt{1-\frac{2}{n}}|D_{0}^{n}\rangle+\sqrt{\frac{2}{n}}|D_{n}^{n}\rangle\\ |1_{L}\rangle&=|D_{2}^{n}\rangle~. \end{split} \tag*{(1)}\end{align}

Cousin

  • Concatenated qubit code— The Bravyi-Lee-Li-Yoshida PI code can be concatenated to yield codes that have higher distance and that admit codewords with vanishing entanglement [1; Appx. D] (cf. [2]).

Primary Hierarchy

Parents
The \(((n,2,2))\) PI code is a Movassagh-Ouyang Hamiltonian code constructed from a binary code consisting of all codewords of weight 0, 2, or \(n\) [1; Appx. D].
\(((n,2,2))\) Bravyi-Lee-Li-Yoshida PI code
Children
The Bravyi-Lee-Li-Yoshida code reduces to the four-qubit single-deletion code for \(n=4\).
