  • Bosonic codes have seen a resurgence in interest for applications as varied as fault tolerant quantum architectures, quantum enhanced sensing, and entanglement distribution. Cat codes have been proposed as low-level elements in larger architectures, and the theory of rotationally symmetric codes more generally has been significantly expanded in the recent literature. The fault-tolerant preparation and maintenance of cat code states as a stand-alone quantum error correction scheme remains however limited by the need for robust state preparation and strong inter-mode interactions. In this work, we consider the teleportation-based correction circuit for cat code quantum error correction. We show that the class of acceptable ancillary states is broader than is typically acknowledged, and exploit this to propose the use of many-component ``bridge'' states which, though not themselves in the cat code space, are nonetheless capable of syndrome extraction in the regime where non-linear interactions are a limiting factor.
