High-rate quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes encode many logical qubits with low physical-qubit overhead, but realizing efficient fault-tolerant computation on such dense encodings remains a major challenge. Generic, code-agnostic techniques such as code surgery and gate teleportation apply broadly, but are difficult to make modular, low-overhead, and fully certifiable on complex high-rate codes whose structure is left unexploited. Here we overcome these obstacles by co-designing the code together with its logical instruction set for a broad family of canonical lifted-product (LP) codes with cyclic symmetry. We show that these codes admit a canonical logical basis, in which conjugate logical operators are organized into rows and columns of cyclic orbits inherited directly from the underlying classical codes, analogous to the structure that makes hypergraph-product codes so tractable. This canonical basis enables universal logical processing using magic-state input and a constant number of reusable seed surgery gadgets---only two (resp. four) for a
[[1122,148,≤20]] (resp.
[[4350,1224,≤20]]) LP code. A fixed extractor smaller than half the data block also enables arbitrarily high-weight logical Pauli-product measurements (PPMs) while preserving the code's cyclic symmetry. These codes also enable rigorously fault-tolerant parallel logic, including PPMs across all logical qubits and magic-state injection from many surface codes into a full LP block. For example, a
[[468,36,20]] (resp.
[[952,112,17]]) code supports simultaneous measurements of arbitrary logically disjoint Pauli products with an ancilla overhead of roughly three (resp. four) times the data block size. These results advance the frontier of fault-tolerant quantum computation on ultra-high-rate quantum architectures.
Quantum low-density parity-check (QLDPC) codes are a leading candidate for achieving low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, the time overhead of logical operations in QLDPC codes remains a key challenge. Code surgery, a space-efficient technique for fault-tolerant logical measurements, incurs this overhead through repeated rounds of syndrome measurement. We introduce lifted surgery, a method for fast and parallel surgery on Abelian group algebra codes that maintains the low physical overhead that makes QLDPC codes attractive. Lifted surgery preserves the symmetries of the underlying code, making searches for large instances tractable and offering a natural route towards efficient hardware implementations. We utilise block decompositions and techniques from commutative algebra to characterise lifted surgery, investigate well-behaved subfamilies, and construct explicit examples. In particular, we present quantum radial codes with parameters
[[90,8,10]] and
[[198,8,16]] for which surgery is fast, parallel, and addressable, allowing arbitrary sets of independent logical operators of the same Pauli type to be measured in a single round of syndrome extraction. We benchmark lifted surgery under circuit-level depolarising noise and, for the
[[90,8,10]] code, find logical performance comparable to standard code surgery while requiring ten times fewer rounds of syndrome measurement. By combining speed and parallelism, lifted surgery offers a practical route towards low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum computing.
Quantum error correction is critical to the design and manufacture of scalable quantum computing systems. Recently, there has been growing interest in quantum low-density parity-check codes as a resource-efficient alternative to surface codes. Their adoption is hindered by the difficulty of compiling fault-tolerant logical operations. A key challenge is that logical qubits do not necessarily map to disjoint sets of physical qubits, which limits parallelism. We introduce clustered-cyclic codes, a quantum low-density parity-check code family with finite-size instances such as [[136,8,14]] and [[198,18,10]] that are competitive with state-of-the-art constructions. These codes admit a directly addressable logical basis, enabling highly parallel logical measurement layers. To leverage this structure, we propose parallel product surgery for quantum product codes. Using an auxiliary copy of the data patch and an engineered product-connection structure, the protocol performs many logical Pauli-product measurements in a single surgery round with small, fixed overhead. For clustered-cyclic codes, this yields surface-code-style maximal parallelism: up to k/2 disjoint Pauli-product measurements per round under explicit algebraic conditions. We prove that parallel product surgery preserves the code distance for hypergraph product codes and numerically verify distance preservation for the listed clustered-cyclic instances with k = 8. Finally, for the [[24,8,3]] clustered-cyclic code, treating half of the logical qubits as auxiliaries enables arbitrary parallel CNOTs on disjoint pairs; combined with symmetry-derived operations, these gates generate the full Clifford group fault-tolerantly.
Despite significant progress on quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes, building qLDPC processors that are high-rate, high-throughput, hardware-friendly, and fast-to-decode remains a challenge. We introduce mitten codes, a family of qLDPC processor codes of encoding rate
20% and check weight
9, based on non-abelian groups. Their non-abelian structure evades distance bounds constraining abelian counterparts, allowing mitten codes to reach distance
18 and beyond with just a few hundred data qubits. The logical operators of a mitten code are related by the group action, yielding a modular, low-overhead logical toolkit: full Clifford operations follow from bridging two reusable seed surgery gadgets or from a single fixed extractor. Furthermore, qLDPC processors based on mitten codes support high-rate surgery that executes many logical measurements in parallel, and parallel magic-state injection into all logical qubits at once. Under circuit-level noise, with our fast decoder, the
[[300,60,14]] mitten code achieves, without extrapolation, a block logical error rate of
∼10−11 per round at
0.1% physical error rate (PER), while the
[[975,195,≤24]] code reaches
∼10−8 at
0.4% PER. Decoding
15 billion surgery experiments on the
[[540,108,18]] code at
0.1% PER, we observe only two logical failures, demonstrating a qLDPC processor capable of running
∼1010 logical operations. Our decoder is compatible with sub-millisecond average latency per logical cycle, sufficient for real-time decoding on neutral atom hardware. Discovered by an end-to-end design pipeline built on sQetch, a distance estimator orders of magnitude faster than existing tools, and mapping efficiently onto near-term neutral atom and superconducting hardware, mitten codes open a practical path toward fault-tolerant quantum computation.
Quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes offer a promising route to reducing the qubit overhead of fault tolerance, with recent ultra-high-rate constructions achieving encoding rates above one half. In this work, we develop fast and parallel logical computation methods for ultra-high-rate codes. We first utilize the group symmetries of the codes to partition the logical qubits into orbits, and then apply parallel surgery methods to implement group-invariant collections of logical Pauli-product measurements. These measurements are highly programmable, as we may arbitrarily couple logical orbits as long as each measurement is repeated across the whole orbit(s). To reduce the space and time overheads, we develop a technique called chain-map convolution, which uses the group structure to boost both the spatial and temporal distances of our protocol in a highly efficient manner. As case studies, we construct distance-preserving parallel measurement gadgets for the [[256, 68, 12]], [[576, 148, 18]] pair-partition codes, and a [[1152, 580, 12]] rate-
1/2 code, with only around
2.5× space overhead and 3-4 rounds of syndrome extraction each. The same methods also enable parallel injection of cultivated magic states into high-rate codes. Finally, we extend programmability through subgroup restrictions, revealing a tradeoff between logical control and the spacetime resources required for fault tolerance and highlighting the crucial role structured parallelism plays in reducing overhead. These results provide new methods for designing qLDPC logical operations with low spacetime overhead, opening a route toward more efficient fault-tolerant quantum architectures.
Quantum error correction is necessary to perform large-scale quantum computation but requires extremely large overheads in both space and time. High-rate quantum low-density-parity-check (qLDPC) codes promise a route to reduce qubit numbers, but performing computation while maintaining low space cost has required serialization of operations and extra time costs. In this work, we design fast and parallelizable logical gates for qLDPC codes and demonstrate their utility for key algorithmic subroutines such as the quantum adder. Our gate gadgets utilize transversal logical s between a data qLDPC code and a suitably constructed ancilla code to perform parallel Pauli product measurements (PPMs) on the data logical qubits. For hypergraph product codes, we show that the ancilla can be constructed by simply modifying the base classical codes of the data code, achieving parallel PPMs on a subgrid of the logical qubits with a lower space-time cost than existing schemes for an important class of circuits. Generalizations to 3D and 4D homological product codes further feature fast PPMs in constant depth. While prior work on qLDPC codes has focused on individual logical gates, we initiate the study of fault-tolerant compilation with our expanded set of native qLDPC code operations, constructing algorithmic primitives for preparing k -qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states and distilling or teleporting k magic states with O ( 1 ) space overhead in O ( 1 ) and O ( k log k ) logical cycles, respectively. We further generalize this to key algorithmic subroutines, demonstrating the efficient implementation of quantum adders using parallel operations. Our constructions are naturally compatible with reconfigurable architectures such as neutral atom arrays, paving the way to large-scale quantum computation with low space and time overheads.
