Constructing quantum codes with good parameters and useful transversal gates is a central problem in quantum error correction. In this paper, we continue our work in arXiv:2502.01864 and construct the first family of asymptotically good quantum codes (over qubits) supporting transversally addressable non-Clifford gates. More precisely, given any three logical qubits across one, two, or three codeblocks, the logical $\mathsf{CCZ}$ gate can be executed on those three logical qubits via a depth-one physical circuit of $\mathsf{CCZ}$ gates. This construction is based on the transitive, iso-orthogonal algebraic geometry codes constructed by Stichtenoth (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 2006). This improves upon our construction from arXiv:2502.01864, which also supports transversally addressable $\mathsf{CCZ}$ gates and has inverse-polylogarithmic rate and relative distance.

The development of quantum codes with good error correction parameters and useful sets of transversal gates is a problem of major interest in quantum error-correction. Abundant prior works have studied transversal gates which are restricted to acting on all logical qubits simultaneously. In this work, we study codes that support transversal gates which induce addressable logical gates, i.e., the logical gates act on logical qubits of our choice. As we consider scaling to high-rate codes, the study and design of low-overhead, addressable logical operations presents an important problem for both theoretical and practical purposes. Our primary result is the construction of an explicit qubit code for which any triple of logical qubits across one, two, or three codeblocks can be addressed with a logical CCZ gate via a depth-one circuit of physical CCZ gates, and whose parameters are asymptotically good, up to polylogarithmic factors. The result naturally generalizes to other gates including the CℓZ gates for ℓ=2. Going beyond this, we develop a formalism for constructing quantum codes with addressable and transversal gates. Our framework, called addressable orthogonality, encompasses the original triorthogonality framework of Bravyi and Haah (Phys. Rev. A 2012), and extends this and other frameworks to study addressable gates. We demonstrate the power of this framework with the construction of an asymptotically good qubit code for which pre-designed, pairwise disjoint triples of logical qubits within a single codeblock may be addressed with a logical CCZ gate via a physical depth-one circuit of Z, CZ and CCZ gates. In an appendix, we show that our framework extends to addressable and transversal T gates, up to Clifford corrections.
Designing quantum codes with both transversal non-Clifford gates and good error-correcting parameters is an important goal in fault-tolerant quantum computation. Here, we construct an explicit family of binary CSS codes with constant rate and linear distance that admit fully addressable transversal T gates. Specifically, any prescribed tensor product of logical powers of T is implemented by a tensor product of physical powers of T, without any subsequent correction. Our construction combines algebraic-geometry codes with suitable binary embedding to obtain generalized divisibility of binary codes. This divisibility then enables fully addressable transversal T gates. Furthermore, we formulate the minimum binary embedding length problem as a minimum-weight problem over an affine space and numerically improve the constants in the asymptotic rate and relative-distance bounds.
We study the structure and transversal logical capabilities of stabilizer quantum error correcting codes. Among our results, we identify universal lower bounds on circuit depth to generate a full logical Clifford algebra, and develop novel constructions of logical transversal gates including a new depth-one transversal phase S gate in the rotated surface code and a depth-one intra-block CZ gate in the 2D-toric code that generalizes to all odd distances and all lengths L≥3, respectively. Finally, we construct a high-rate non-LDPC CSS code family with parameters [[n,n,Θ(nβ)]] where β≈0.2823 in one demonstrated case, that provably possesses a constant-depth complete 2-local transversal logical Clifford basis instruction set architecture (ISA) composed of all individually targeted S, SHS=X, and CZ gates. This ISA is depth-one for certain subfamilies that we design and generally constant-depth under certain conditions. The code family is built from a small code with parameters [[n0,2,d0]], and is tunable in the standard way: it tiles out to form utility-scale logical qubit counts, and it scales up through concatenation to achieve higher distances and error suppression. We show that this construction preserves the depth-one complete transversal logical Clifford basis ISA when composed with these commuting construction actions, inheriting structure from the core codes so that at scale the complete logical Clifford basis ISA remains depth-one up to depth-two addressable operations between tiled cores. We call these Quantum Logic Codes.
It is a major challenge in quantum fault-tolerance to obtain low-overhead protocols for performing non-Clifford gates. In this vein, we construct quantum codes with low-weight stabilizers that support transversal (i.e. low-depth) implementations of the non-Clifford Cr−1Z gate, for every constant r≥3. In particular, we obtain length-n quantum LDPC codes (with constant-weight stabilizers) of polynomial distance d≥n(1−ε)/r supporting transversal Cr−1Z gates on a close-to-linear number k≥n1−ε of disjoint tuples of logical qubits, for arbitrarily small ε>0. Our construction is the first with constant-weight stabilizers that obtains dk≫n, and as a consequence achieves arbitrarily small magic state overhead exponent γ=log(n/k)/log(d)>0. Comparable prior constructions instead required at least polylogarithmic stabilizer weight. We also show how to obtain linearly many k=Ω(n) logical Cr−1Z gates, though with stabilizer weight and physical circuit depth nε. We show that our transversal gates also support addressing (i.e. targeting) of specific logical qubits.
To obtain our codes, we develop a general transformation based on cup products that maps classical codes satisfying a multiplication property to quantum codes with transversal Cr−1Z. We apply this transformation to a new family of classical Tanner codes that we construct from punctured tensor products of algebraic codes.
In this work, we prove that for any m>1, there exists a family of good qudit quantum codes supporting transversal logical Cm−1Z gates that can address specified logical qudits and be largely executed in parallel. Building on the family of good quantum error-correcting codes presented in He et al. (2025), which support addressable and transversal logical CCZ gates, we extend their framework and show how to perform large sets of gates in parallel. The construction relies on the classical algebraic geometry codes of Stichtenoth (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 2006). Our results lead to a substantial reduction in the depth overhead of multi-control-Z circuits. In particular, we show that the minimal depth of any logical Cm−1Z circuit involving qudits from m distinct code blocks is upper bounded by O(km−1), where k is the code dimension. While this overhead is optimal for dense Cm−1Z circuits, for sparse circuits we discuss how the depth overhead can be significantly reduced by exploiting the structure of the quantum code.
In this work, we study quantum CSS codes with transversal T gates. Here, T gate transversality is meant in the strongest sense; the application of physical T to every physical qubit yields logical T on every logical qubit, without Clifford corrections. Despite the importance of the T gate in fault-tolerant quantum computation, the parameters of asymptotic families of such codes have not been improved since the work of Hastings and Haah in 2017, and Haah in 2018. In this work, we significantly broaden the achievable parameters of quantum code families with transversal T gates, both expanding the regime of achievable polynomial rate and distance, and constructing such codes with constant rate and growing distance; this is the first time the latter has been achieved, even when allowing Clifford corrections after the transversal T gate. These are also the first codes achieving γ→0 for a code with a transversal T gate, where γ is the overhead exponent of magic state distillation.
To do this, we develop a framework of divisible decreasing monomial codes, punctured at a downward-closed set on the Boolean hypercube to create logical qubits. We prove a closed-form expression for the distance of such a code punctured at such a set, which may be of independent interest. We first instantiate this with an explicit construction based on weighted Reed-Muller codes, puncturing at low Hamming-weight points, and then with a randomised construction, where a small random set of points is protected from the puncturing to save quantum code distance, achieving improved parameters.
