Transversal Toffoli-Gate in Hybrid-Code System
Abstract
We study the transversality of the Toffoli gate in a hybrid-code system that employs two quantum error correction codes with special structure. We find that a system using a triorthogonal code with its paired code supports a fully transversal implementation of the Toffoli gate. Through circuit-level analysis, we prove the transversality of the Toffoli operation in this system. Based on this hybrid-code framework, we propose a Toffoli state distillation protocol that does not rely on pre-distilled T-gate magic states. In our approach, the Toffoli state is directly distilled layer by layer within the hybrid-code system using only transversal operations. Numerical simulations demonstrate that our method uses approximately 50% fewer qubit resources than previously reported protocols.
