In order to perform universal fault-tolerant quantum computation, one needs to implement a logical non-Clifford gate. Consequently, it is important to understand codes that implement such gates transversally. In this paper, we adopt an algebraic approach to characterize all stabilizer codes for which transversal $T$ and $T^{-1}$ gates preserve the codespace. Our Heisenberg perspective reduces this to a finite geometry problem that translates to the design of certain classical codes. We prove three corollaries: (a) For any non-degenerate $[[ n,k,d ]]$ stabilizer code supporting a physical transversal $T$, there exists an $[[ n,k,d ]]$ CSS code with the same property; (b) Triorthogonal codes are the most general CSS codes that realize logical transversal $T$ via physical transversal $T$; (c) Triorthogonality is necessary for physical transversal $T$ on a CSS code to realize the logical identity. The main tool we use is a recent efficient characterization of certain diagonal gates in the Clifford hierarchy (arXiv:1902.04022). We refer to these gates as Quadratic Form Diagonal (QFD) gates. Our framework generalizes all existing code constructions that realize logical gates via transversal $T$. We provide several examples and briefly discuss connections to decreasing monomial codes, pin codes, generalized triorthogonality and quasitransversality. We partially extend these results towards characterizing all stabilizer codes that support transversal $pi/2^{ell}$ $Z$-rotations. In particular, using Axs theorem on residue weights of polynomials, we provide an alternate characterization of logical gates induced by transversal $pi/2^{ell}$ $Z$-rotations on a family of quantum Reed-Muller codes. We also briefly discuss a general approach to analyze QFD gates that might lead to a characterization of all stabilizer codes that support any given physical transversal $1$- or $2$-local diagonal gate.

CSS codes are in one-to-one correspondance with length 3 chain complexes. The latter are naturally endowed with a tensor product $otimes$ which induces a similar operation on the former. We investigate this operation, and in particular its behavior w
ith regard to minimum distances. Given a CSS code $mathcal{C}$, we give a criterion which provides a lower bound on the minimum distance of $mathcal{C} otimes mathcal{D}$ for every CSS code $mathcal D$. We apply this result to study the behaviour of iterated tensor powers of codes. Such sequences of codes are logarithmically LDPC and we prove in particular that their minimum distances tend generically to infinity. Different known results are reinterpretated in terms of tensor products. Three new families of CSS codes are defined, and their iterated tensor powers produce LDPC sequences of codes with length $n$, row weight in $O(log n)$ and minimum distances larger than $n^{frac{alpha}{2}}$ for any $alpha<1$. One family produces sequences with dimensions larger than $n^beta$ for any $beta<1$.
We consider geometrical optimization problems related to optimizing the error probability in the presence of a Gaussian noise. One famous questions in the field is the weak simplex conjecture. We discuss possible approaches to it, and state related c
onjectures about the Gaussian measure, in particular, the conjecture about minimizing of the Gaussian measure of a simplex. We also consider antipodal codes, apply the v{S}idak inequality and establish some theoretical and some numerical results about their optimality.
We derive one-shot upper bounds for quantum noisy channel codes. We do so by regarding a channel code as a bipartite operation with an encoder belonging to the sender and a decoder belonging to the receiver, and imposing constraints on the bipartite
operation. We investigate the power of codes whose bipartite operation is non-signalling from Alice to Bob, positive-partial transpose (PPT) preserving, or both, and derive a simple semidefinite program for the achievable entanglement fidelity. Using the semidefinite program, we show that the non-signalling assisted quantum capacity for memoryless channels is equal to the entanglement-assisted capacity. We also relate our PPT-preserving codes and the PPT-preserving entanglement distillation protocols studied by Rains. Applying these results to a concrete example, the 3-dimensional Werner-Holevo channel, we find that codes that are non-signalling and PPT-preserving can be strictly less powerful than codes satisfying either one of the constraints, and therefore provide a tighter bound for unassisted codes. Furthermore, PPT-preserving non-signalling codes can send one qubit perfectly over two uses of the channel, which has no quantum capacity. We discuss whether this can be interpreted as a form of superactivation of quantum capacity.
Quantum error-correcting codes are used to protect qubits involved in quantum computation. This process requires logical operators, acting on protected qubits, to be translated into physical operators (circuits) acting on physical quantum states. We
propose a mathematical framework for synthesizing physical circuits that implement logical Clifford operators for stabilizer codes. Circuit synthesis is enabled by representing the desired physical Clifford operator in $mathbb{C}^{N times N}$ as a partial $2m times 2m$ binary symplectic matrix, where $N = 2^m$. We state and prove two theorems that use symplectic transvections to efficiently enumerate all binary symplectic matrices that satisfy a system of linear equations. As a corollary of these results, we prove that for an $[![ m,k ]!]$ stabilizer code every logical Clifford operator has $2^{r(r+1)/2}$ symplectic solutions, where $r = m-k$, up to stabilizer degeneracy. The desired physical circuits are then obtained by decomposing each solution into a product of elementary symplectic matrices, that correspond to elementary circuits. This enumeration of all physical realizations enables optimization over the ensemble with respect to a suitable metric. Furthermore, we show that any circuit that normalizes the stabilizer of the code can be transformed into a circuit that centralizes the stabilizer, while realizing the same logical operation. Our method of circuit synthesis can be applied to any stabilizer code, and this paper discusses a proof of concept synthesis for the $[![ 6,4,2 ]!]$ CSS code. Programs implementing the algorithms in this paper, which includes routines to solve for binary symplectic solutions of general linear systems and our overall LCS (logical circuit synthesis) algorithm, can be found at: https://github.com/nrenga/symplectic-arxiv18a
Reliable models of a large variety of open quantum systems can be described by Lindblad master equation. An important property of some open quantum systems is the existence of decoherence-free subspaces. In this paper, we develop tools for constructi
ng stabilizer codes over open quantum systems governed by Lindblad master equation. We apply the developed stabilizer code formalism to the area of quantum metrology. In particular, a strategy to attain the Heisenberg limit scaling is proposed.
