Limitations on transversal gates for hypergraph product codes
arXiv:2012.05842
Abstract
We analyze the structure of the logical operators from a class of quantum codes that generalizes the surface codes. These are the hypergraph product codes, restricted to the vertical sector. By generalizing an argument of Bravyi and König, we find that transversal gates for these codes must be restricted to the Clifford group.
