Generalized Cluster States Based on Finite Groups

We define generalized cluster states based on finite group algebras in analogy to the generalization of the toric code to the Kitaev quantum double models. We do this by showing a general correspondence between systems with CSS structure and finite group algebras, and applying this to the cluster states to derive their generalization. We then investigate properties of these states including their PEPS representations, global symmetries, and relationship to the Kitaev quantum double models. We also discuss possible applications of these states.
