Automorphisms of stabilizer codes

Quantum Physics 2011-03-01 v1

Abstract

We study the automorphisms of binary stabilizer codes and states. We prove that they almost always form a solvable group, and thereby shed new light on the fact that there is no universal set of transversal gates. We also determine the connected component of the automorphism group.
