Qudit lattice surgery

Quantum Physics 2022-07-04 v3

Abstract

We observe that lattice surgery, a model of fault-tolerant qubit computation, generalises straightforwardly to arbitrary finite-dimensional qudits. The generalised model is based on the group algebras CZd\mathbb{C}\mathbb{Z}_d for d2d \geq 2. It still requires magic state injection for universal quantum computation. We relate the model to the ZX-calculus, a diagrammatic language based on Hopf-Frobenius algebras.
