Surface codes, the 2D classical Ising model, and non-interacting fermions
In this thesis, we consider the task of simulating measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) on surface code states: the generalization of Kitaev's toric code to graphs embedded on a surface of higher genus. We define a family of higher genus graphs and a simple ordering of single qubit mea...
