Modular optical fault-tolerant quantum computation via an interface between verified resources and online logical operations
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We introduce a factory--processor interface architecture for modular optical fault-tolerant quantum computation that separates code-dependent encoded-resource preparation from reusable online logical processing on a common Gaussian optical processor. Beyond encoded resources, the interface specifies logical outputs, code-to-mode mapping, measurement roles, frame updates, verification records, and resource-injection boundaries. As a concrete realization, we combine an offline verified Bell-resource factory based on a recursively concatenated $C_4$ code with physical Gottesman--Kitaev--Preskill (GKP) qubits with an online time-domain measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) processor. Under the specified additive-displacement-noise model and fixed postselection policy, simulations support the finite-level logical Bell-error ordering $P_5
