- Abstract: We describe a method for creating twist defects in the honeycomb Floquet code
of Hastings and Haah. In particular, we construct twist defects at the
endpoints of condensation defects, which are built by condensing emergent
fermions along one-dimensional paths. We argue that the twist defects can be
used to store and process quantum information fault tolerantly, and demonstrate
that, by preparing twist defects on a system with a boundary, we obtain a
planar variant of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ Floquet code. Importantly, our
construction of twist defects maintains the connectivity of the hexagonal
lattice, requires only 2-body measurements, and preserves the three-round
period of the measurement schedule. We furthermore generalize the twist defects
to $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Floquet codes defined on $N$-dimensional qudits. As an aside,
we use the $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Floquet codes and condensation defects to define
Floquet codes whose instantaneous stabilizer groups are characterized by the
topological order of certain Abelian twisted quantum doubles.

We propose a novel construction of the Floquet 3D toric code and Floquet $X$-cube code through the coupling of spin chains.
Our method extends the Floquet 3D toric code to a broader class of lattices, aligning with its topological phase properties.
Our construction intrinsically supports the extension to $n$-dimensional Floquet $(n,1)$ toric codes and generalized $n$-dimensional Floquet $X$-cube codes.

Floquet code of Hastings and Haah can be thought of as a measurement-only version of the Kitaev honeycomb model.
We show that by varying the measurement strength of the code one can observe features akin to the fractionalization physics of the Kitaev model at finite temperature.

Our construction not only generalizes the recently introduced subsystem toric code, but also provides a new perspective on several aspects of the original model.
