Abstract
We apply the cutting stabiliser decomposition techniques [arXiv:2403.10964] to the quantum states generated from magic state cultivation [arXiv:2409.17595], post-selected upon all measured values for simplicity. The resultant states to the and variant magic state cultivation circuits can be expressed as a sum of and Clifford ZX-digrams respectively. Modifications to existing ZX-calculus stabiliser decomposition methods may enable better simulation of non-Clifford circuits containing a moderate number of gates in the context of quantum error correction.
