| contents | We introduce the concept of quantum actuators as mediators for globally controlled quantum computation. Auxiliary quantum systems act as controllable elements that transiently store and release interaction energy, enabling the selective activation of multi-qubit gates within globally driven architectures. During compilation they remain passive and require no fine-grained local control, while during operation they allow for controlled activation of interactions and directional flow of quantum information. We provide a framework for embedding quantum actuators in globally controlled processors, showing how they enhance connectivity, enable long-range entangling operations, and bridge distant regions without increasing local control overhead. We discuss physical implementations and architectural strategies illustrating how these elements extend the capabilities of global-control schemes. A complementary interpretation in terms of quantum batteries naturally emerges, connecting global-control architectures with concepts from quantum thermodynamics while highlighting the distinct operational role of quantum actuators. |
