X-cube model code[1]
Description
A foliated type-I fracton code supporting a subextensive number of logical qubits. Variants include the membrane-coupled [2], twice-foliated [3], and several generalized [4] X-cube models.
Decoding
Parallelized matching decoder [5].
Code Capacity Threshold
Independent \(X,Z\) noise: \(\sim 7.5\%\), higher than 3D surface code and color code [6].
Parents
- Qubit CSS code
- Fracton stabilizer code — The X-cube model is a foliated type-I fracton code [7,8].
Cousins
- Quantum-inspired classical block code — According to Ref. [9], a classical analogue of the X-cube model is the eight-vertex model [10–12].
- Newman-Moore code — Generalized X-cube models [4] are constructed from a product of the repetion (1D Ising) code and the Newman-Moore code.
- Quantum repetition code — Generalized X-cube models [4] are constructed from a balanced product of the quantum repetion (1D Ising) code and the Newman-Moore code.
- Balanced product (BP) code — Generalized X-cube models [4] are constructed from a balanced product of the quantum repetion (1D Ising) code and the Newman-Moore code.
- Fracton Floquet code — The ISG of the X-cube Floquet code can be that of the X-cube model code or the checkerboard model code.
- X-cube Floquet code — The ISG of the X-cube Floquet code can be that of the X-cube model code or that of several decoupled surface codes.
- Majorana checkerboard code — The Majorana checkerboard code is equivalent via a constant-depth unitary to a semionic version of the X-cube model and some decoupled fermionic modes [13].
- Checkerboard model code — The checkerboard model is equivalent to two copies of the X-cube model via a local constant-depth unitary [14].
