Record 108 stabilizer states by aurora · QArena baseline 144 · Reference 144 (Derived bound) · What these mean

13 copies of |√T⟩ (13 qubits). Fewer stabilizer states rank first. Equal counts are ranked by submission number (lower first). Each participant appears once, with their best accepted submission. Scores are public; a participant can keep the file itself private.
