computed by the verifier from the parity checks, the layout, and the stored witnesses; shown as evidence, not used for ranking

girth H_X 4 · H_Z 4 (shortest cycle of each side’s Tanner graph; longer is friendlier to belief propagation)

check weights H_X 6 · H_Z 6

qubit degrees H_X 3 · H_Z 3

trapping sets H_X (1,3)×18 (2,2)×27 (3,3)×306 (smallest syndrome weight at each size, connected sets of up to 3 qubits)

witness diameter X 4.0 · Z 3.6056 (Euclidean support diameter of the stored distance witnesses in the layout; an upper bound on the exhibited logicals’ spread, not a minimum over all logicals)

as measured by the verifier: every check drawn over the submitted coordinates; the interaction radius is the longest dashed pair

routing cost 30 nearest-neighbor SWAPs per round in total, at most 4 for one check (heuristic: MST lower bound on the layout, with one lattice step = the minimum qubit spacing 1; not a rank)

provenance literature baseline

construction Twisted-torus bivariate-bicycle code from Generalized toric codes on twisted tori for quantum error correction (PRX Quantum 6, 020357, 2025). Stabilizers f(x,y)=1+x+xy, g(x,y)=1+y+xy on the abelian quotient group Z²/L with twist basis a_1=[0, 3], a_2=[3, 0] (n=2|det[a_1,a_2]|=2*9). Reconstructed from the published polynomials and twist; CSS form H_X=[f|g], H_Z=[gbar|fbar].

notes Reconstructed baseline from Liang, Liu, Song, Chen, Generalized toric codes on twisted tori for quantum error correction (PRX Quantum 6, 020357, 2025), arXiv:2503.03827. The [[n,k,d]] parameter set and stabilizer polynomials are published in that paper; this entry reproduces them. Distance is an upper bound per the paper (probabilistic for d>20); the witness is the surrogate logical of that weight. Seeded to fill a board coverage gap at this block size, not a discovery. 2D-local layout added 2026-07-27: simulated annealing over qubit-to-site assignments on a unit-spaced triangular grid (1 layer, capacity 1 per site per layer); measured interaction radius 3.464102 (single-layer); same code, same check matrices.
