contents We consider quantum computer architectures where interactions are mediated between hot qubits that are not in their mechanical ground state. Such situations occur, e.g., when not cooling ideally, or when moving ions or atoms around. We introduce quantum gates between logically encoded systems that consist of multiple physical ones and show how the encoding can be used to make these gates resilient against such imperfections. We demonstrate that, in this way, one can improve gate fidelities by enlarging the logical system, and counteract the effect of unknown positions or position fluctuations of involved particles. We consider both a classical treatment of positions in terms of probability distributions, as well a quantum treatment using mechanical eigenmodes. We analyze different settings including a cool logical system mediating interactions between two hot systems, as well as two logical systems consisting of hot physical systems whose positions fluctuate collectively or individually. In all cases, we demonstrate a significant improvement of gate fidelities, which provides a platform-independent tool to mitigate thermal noise.
