New universal resource states

Based on a previously established framework we present new examples of universal resource states for measurement-based quantum computation. In particular, we discuss the concept of ''quantum wires''. These are quantum states on a one-dimensional string, which can be used to transport and process quantum information solely by means of local measurements. In a certain parameter regime, quantum wires can be completely parameterized and their properties explicitly computed. States of these kind may be thought of as primitives for the construction of two-dimensional resources states, universal for quantum computing. We discuss means of coupling such one-dimensional wires to form universal resources
