Routing Codes: High-Rate Quantum LDPC Codes with Short, Parallel Non-Local Connectivity

Quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes are promising candidates for realizing large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing. Although many codes with favorable theoretical parameters have been developed, their practical adoption must take hardware implementability into account. For mainstream quantum platforms such as superconductors and neutral atoms, the connectivity, the length of non-local couplings, and the complexity of wiring or atom rearrangement are key factors that dictate the difficulty of hardware realization. Here, we propose a new family of qLDPC codes, termed routing codes. Within this family, we find explicit instances whose encoding rates are competitive to those of bivariate bicycle (BB) codes, while systematically reducing qubit connectivity, shortening the length of non-local couplings, and, crucially, making all non-local couplings mutually parallel. This parallelism translates into quantifiable benefits, substantially reducing wiring crossings in superconducting multi-layer architectures and simplifying the scheduling of atom movement in neutral-atom arrays. The weight-7 routing codes maintain a high threshold of 0.7\% and reduce the physical qubit overhead by approximately a factor of 8, compared to surface codes achieving a same logical error rate. Further increasing the weight to 11 yields a [[200, 24, 14]] and [[200, 16, 17]] codes with an encoding rate over 23 times that of the surface code, at the cost of a higher logical error rate. These results establish routing codes as a hardware-centric qLDPC family that bridges the gap between theoretical optimality and near-term physical feasibility.

Adaptive Deformation of Color Code in Square Lattices with Defects

Quantum error correction is a crucial technology for fault tolerant quantum computing. On superconducting platforms, hardware defects in large scale quantum processors can disrupt the regular lattice structure of topological codes and impair their error correction capabilities. Although defect adaptive methods for surface codes have been extensively studied, other topological codes such as color codes still lack a systematic framework for handling defects. To address this issue, we propose a universal superstabilizer scheme applicable to data qubit defects in arbitrary stabilizer codes. Based on this scheme, we develop concrete repair methods for isolated defects of both internal data qubits and ancilla qubits in color codes defined on square lattices. Furthermore, for ancilla qubit defects, we present two optimization schemes. One scheme reuses neighboring ancilla qubits, and the other employs iSWAP gates. Unlike conventional approaches that directly disable neighboring data qubits and thus cause resource waste, both of our schemes avoid such waste and consequently achieve a lower logical error rate.Integrating the above techniques, we construct a comprehensive defect adaptive architecture for color codes to handle various defect clusters. We also show that our scheme supports a full transversal Clifford gate set and lattice surgery operations. These results provide a systematic theoretical pathway for deploying robust and low overhead color codes on defective quantum hardware.

Low-Overhead and High-Fidelity Preparation of Logical Non-Clifford States with Multi-Level Transversal Injection

Rotation gates are widely used in various quantum algorithms. To implement fault-tolerant rotation gates, state distillation or gate synthesis is typically employed. However, the overhead of these schemes scales rapidly with increasing Clifford hierarchy levels and required fidelity, limiting their use in large-scale quantum algorithms. In this letter, we propose a method termed multi-level transversal injection (MLTI) for preparing rotation states at arbitrary Clifford hierarchy levels, which achieves high fidelity while significantly reducing overhead compared to previous methods. Unlike the linear cost scaling of state distillation, the overhead of MLTI drops with Clifford hierarchy levels and then plateaus at higher levels, slashing the required space-time volume by up to several orders of magnitude. Additionally, we introduce a method for eliminating the off-diagonal terms of rotation states without extra overhead, unifying the metrics of infidelity and trace distance. These results render the overhead for high-precision rotation gates no longer prohibitive, and thus bring the broad adoption of large-scale quantum algorithms a critical step closer to reality.

A Pathway to Practical Quantum Advantage in Solving Navier-Stokes Equations

The advent of fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) promises to tackle classically intractable problems. A key milestone is solving the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE), which has remained formidable for quantum algorithms due to their high input-output overhead and nonlinearity. Here, we establish a full-stack framework that charts a practical pathway to a quantum advantage for large-scale NSE simulation. Our approach integrates a spectral-based input/output algorithm, an explicit and synthesized quantum circuit, and a refined error-correction protocol. The algorithm achieves an end-to-end exponential speedup in asymptotic complexity, meeting the lower bound for general quantum linear system solvers. Through symmetry-based circuit synthesis and optimized error correction, we reduce the required logical and physical resources by two orders of magnitude. Our concrete resource analysis demonstrates that solving NSE on a $2^{80}$-grid is feasible with 8.71 million physical qubits (at an error rate of $5 \times 10^{-4}$) in 42.6 days -- outperforming a state-of-the-art supercomputer, which would require over a century. This work bridges the gap between theoretical quantum speedup and the practical deployment of high-performance scientific computing.

Scalable Constant-Time Logical Gates for Large-Scale Quantum Computation Using Window-Based Correlated Decoding

Large-scale quantum computation requires to be performed in the fault-tolerant manner. One crucial challenge of fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) is reducing the overhead of implementing logical gates. Recently work proposed correlated decoding and ``algorithmic fault tolerance" to achieve constant-time logical gates that enables universal quantum computation. However, for circuits involving mid-circuit measurements and feedback, the previous scheme for constant-time logical gates is incompatible with window-based decoding, which is a scalable approach for handling large-scale circuits. In this work, we propose an architecture that employs delayed fixup circuits and window-based correlated decoding, realizing scalable constant-time logical gates. This design significantly reduces both the frequency and duration of decoding, while maintaining support for constant-time and universal logical gates across a broad class of quantum codes. More importantly, by spatial parallelism of windows, this architecture well adapts to time-optimal FTQC, making it particularly useful for large-scale quantum computation. Using Shor's algorithm as an example, we explore the application of our architecture and reveals the promising potential of using constant-time logical gates to perform large-scale quantum computation with acceptable overhead on physical systems like ion traps.
