Optimal compilation strategies for QFT circuits in neutral-atom quantum computing

Neutral-atom quantum computing (NAQC) offers distinct advantages such as dynamic qubit reconfigurability, long coherence times, and high gate fidelities, making it a promising platform for scalable quantum computing. Among existing implementations, the Dynamically Field-Programmable Qubit Array (DPQA) architecture has emerged as the most prominent NAQC platform, enabling large-scale, high-fidelity operations through dynamic atom rearrangement and global Rydberg excitation. Despite these strengths, efficiently implementing quantum circuits like the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT) remains a significant challenge due to atom-movement overheads and connectivity constraints. This paper introduces optimal compilation strategies tailored to QFT circuits on the DPQA architecture, addressing these challenges for both linear and grid-like configurations. By minimizing atom movements, the proposed methods achieve theoretical lower bounds in movement counts while preserving high circuit fidelity. Comparative evaluations against state-of-the-art DPQA compilers demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed methods, which could serve as benchmarks for evaluating the performance of future DPQA compilers.
