title: Fault-tolerant quantum computation via exchange interactions.
abstract: Quantum computation can be performed by encoding logical qubits into the states of two or more physical qubits, and control of effective exchange interactions and possibly a global magnetic field. This "encoded universality" paradigm offers potential simplifications in quantum computer design since it does away with the need to control physical qubits individually. Here we show how encoded universality schemes can be combined with fault-tolerant quantum error correction, thus establishing the scalability of such schemes.
