contents We develop an angular momentum representation and implementation of the Clifford+T set of unitaries for qutrits. We show that local gates from this set can be realized by the sole use of suitable rotations and one-axis-twisting operations, which are at most quadratic in the angular momentum operators and thus can be experimentally realized in many quantum systems. Controlled rotations are shown to only require linear angular momentum couplings and, as a consequence, the full qutrit Clifford+T set is shown to be expressed solely in terms of two-body angular momentum couplings, rotations and one-axis-twisting operations. By employing the Jordan-Schwinger map, we show an analogous implementation in terms of bosonic modes, improving on the number of modes with regard to a previous scheme. Moreover, we employ the cross-Kerr interaction in order to obtain any qutrit Clifford+T gate for bosonic modes. We illustrate our findings with simple schemes for preparing entangled states of interest.
