Floquet codes with a twist

We describe a method for creating twist defects in the honeycomb Floquet code of Hastings and Haah. In particular, we construct twist defects at the endpoints of condensation defects, which are built by condensing emergent fermions along one-dimensional paths. We argue that the twist defects can be used to store and process quantum information fault tolerantly, and demonstrate that, by preparing twist defects on a system with a boundary, we obtain a planar variant of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ Floquet code. Importantly, our construction of twist defects maintains the connectivity of the hexagonal lattice, requires only 2-body measurements, and preserves the three-round period of the measurement schedule. We furthermore generalize the twist defects to $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Floquet codes defined on $N$-dimensional qudits. As an aside, we use the $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Floquet codes and condensation defects to define Floquet codes whose instantaneous stabilizer groups are characterized by the topological order of certain Abelian twisted quantum doubles.Comment: 35+7 pages, 19 figures; v2 corrected typos; v3 corrected fault-tolerance argument, clarified implementation of logical S gat

Engineering Floquet codes by rewinding

Floquet codes are a novel class of quantum error-correcting codes with dynamically generated logical qubits, which arise from a periodic schedule of non-commuting measurements. We engineer new examples of Floquet codes with measurement schedules that $\textit{rewind}$ during each period. The rewinding schedules are advantageous in our constructions for both obtaining a desired set of instantaneous stabilizer groups and for constructing boundaries. Our first example is a Floquet code that has instantaneous stabilizer groups that are equivalent -- via finite-depth circuits -- to the 2D color code and exhibits a $\mathbb{Z}_3$ automorphism of the logical operators. Our second example is a Floquet code with instantaneous stabilizer codes that have the same topological order as the 3D toric code. This Floquet code exhibits a splitting of the topological order of the 3D toric code under the associated sequence of measurements i.e., an instantaneous stabilizer group of a single copy of 3D toric code in one round transforms into an instantaneous stabilizer group of two copies of 3D toric codes up to nonlocal stabilizers, in the following round. We further construct boundaries for this 3D code and argue that stacking it with two copies of 3D subsystem toric code allows for a transversal implementation of the logical non-Clifford $CCZ$ gate. We also show that the coupled-layer construction of the X-cube Floquet code can be modified by a rewinding schedule such that each of the instantaneous stabilizer codes is finite-depth-equivalent to the X-cube model up to toric codes; the X-cube Floquet code exhibits a splitting of the X-cube model into a copy of the X-cube model and toric codes under the measurement sequence. Our final example is a generalization of the honeycomb code to 3D, which has instantaneous stabilizer codes with the same topological order as the 3D fermionic toric code.Comment: 20+3 pages, 27 figures, $\texttt{Mathematica}$ files are available at https://github.com/dua-arpit/floquetcodes, v2 changes: added more details on the rewinding X-cube Floquet code and made minor updates in color code figures in the appendi

Establishing a Conditional Signal for Assistance in Teenagers with Blindness

Five teenagers with severe intellectual impairments and no discernible communication skills were enrolled in training to teach a conditional request for assistance using a speech-generating device (SGD). All were either blind or severely visually impaired since birth. All learned to operate an adaptive switch to control sensory outcomes, next showed preferences among sensory outcomes, and then demonstrated the ability to use their switch to signal for assistance with an SGD when the sensory outcome was remotely disabled. During the signaling phase, or subsequent attempts to generalize its use outside the laboratory, 3 participants began vocalizing. Most notably, they began imitation of the word “song” or the word “help” emitted by the SGD. The potential role of cause-and-effect training with adaptive switches is discussed

Pauli topological subsystem codes from Abelian anyon theories

We construct Pauli topological subsystem codes characterized by arbitrary two-dimensional Abelian anyon theories--this includes anyon theories with degenerate braiding relations and those without a gapped boundary to the vacuum. Our work both extends the classification of two-dimensional Pauli topological subsystem codes to systems of composite-dimensional qudits and establishes that the classification is at least as rich as that of Abelian anyon theories. We exemplify the construction with topological subsystem codes defined on four-dimensional qudits based on the $\mathbb{Z}_4^{(1)}$ anyon theory with degenerate braiding relations and the chiral semion theory--both of which cannot be captured by topological stabilizer codes. The construction proceeds by "gauging out" certain anyon types of a topological stabilizer code. This amounts to defining a gauge group generated by the stabilizer group of the topological stabilizer code and a set of anyonic string operators for the anyon types that are gauged out. The resulting topological subsystem code is characterized by an anyon theory containing a proper subset of the anyons of the topological stabilizer code. We thereby show that every Abelian anyon theory is a subtheory of a stack of toric codes and a certain family of twisted quantum doubles that generalize the double semion anyon theory. We further prove a number of general statements about the logical operators of translation invariant topological subsystem codes and define their associated anyon theories in terms of higher-form symmetries.Comment: 67 + 35 pages, single column forma

An Appraisal of the Current Scenario in Vaccine Research for COVID-19

The recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has drawn global attention, affecting millions, disrupting economies and healthcare modalities. With its high infection rate, COVID-19 has caused a colossal health crisis worldwide. While information on the comprehensive nature of this infectious agent, SARS-CoV-2, still remains obscure, ongoing genomic studies have been successful in identifying its genomic sequence and the presenting antigen. These may serve as promising, potential therapeutic targets in the effective management of COVID-19. In an attempt to establish herd immunity, massive efforts have been directed and driven toward developing vaccines against the SARS-CoV-2 pathogen. This review, in this direction, is aimed at providing the current scenario and future perspectives in the development of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2
