Executing quantum circuits on superconducting platforms requires balancing the trade-off between gate errors and crosstalk. To address this, we introduce SurgeQ, a hardware-software
co-design strategy consisting of a design phase and an execution phase, to achieve accelerated circuit execution and improve overall program fidelity. SurgeQ employs coupling-strengthened, faster two-qubit gates while mitigating their increased crosstalk through a tailored scheduling strategy. With detailed consideration of composite noise models, we establish a systematic evaluation pipeline to identify the optimal coupling strength. Evaluations on a comprehensive suite of real-world benchmarks show that SurgeQ generally achieves higher fidelity than up-to-date baselines, and remains effective in combating exponential fidelity decay, achieving up to a million-fold improvement in large-scale circuits.

The schmeme of nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation (NHQC) offers an error-resistant method for implementing quantum gates, capable of mitigating certain errors. However, the
conventional NHQC schemes often entail longer operations concerning standard gate operations, making them more vulnerable to the effects of quantum decoherence. In this research, we propose an implementation of the Super-Robust NHQC scheme within the Decoherence-Free Subspace (DFS). SR-NHQC has demonstrated robustness against Global Control Errors (GCEs). By utilizing capacitance-coupled transmon qubits within a DFS, our approach enables universal gate operations on a scalable two-dimensional square lattice of superconducting qubits. Numerical simulations demonstrate the practicality of SR-NHQC in DFS, showcasing its superiority in mitigating GCEs and decoherence effects compared to conventional NHQC schemes. Our work presents a promising strategy for advancing the reliability of quantum computation in real-world applications.
