• Abstract: Large-scale quantum computation requires to be performed in the fault-tolerant manner. One crucial issue of fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) is reducing the overhead of implementing logical gates. Recently proposed correlated decoding and ``algorithmic fault tolerance" achieve fast logical gates that enables universal quantum computation. However, for circuits involving mid-circuit measurements and feedback, this approach is incompatible with window-based decoding, which is a natural requirement for handling large-scale circuits. In this letter, we propose an alternative architecture that employs delayed fixup circuits, integrating window-based correlated decoding with fast transversal gates. This design significantly reduce both the frequency and duration of correlated decoding, while maintaining support for constant-time logical gates and universality 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 computation. Using Shor's algorithm as an example, we explore the application of our architecture and reveals the promising potential of using fast transversal gates to perform large-scale quantum computing tasks with acceptable overhead on physical systems like ion traps.

  We address quantum computers made from neutral atom arrays to design a surface code architecture that translates the hardware's physical connectivity into a higher logical connectivity. Compared to standard lattice surgery operations, this reduces both the overall qubit footprint and execution time, lowering the spacetime overhead needed for small-scale QEC circuits. We look at using physical atom movement schemes and propose interleaved lattice surgery which allows an all-to-all connectivity between qubits in adjacent interleaved groups, creating a higher connectivity routing space for large-scale circuits.
