contents Compiling arbitrary-connectivity NISQ circuits onto monolithic single-zone neutral-atom devices is constrained by a finite interaction range and a minimum separation between simultaneously addressable sites. Under the minimum-separation constraint, the SWAP-only configuration of our pipeline does not return a schedule within a practical time budget on a range of circuits, including circuits as small as nine qubits. We address this with hub traps, a small number of dynamically placed empty traps that serve as transit waypoints, together with a per-gate rule that chooses between SWAP-based routing and hub-mediated shuttling. We evaluate the compiler on seventeen benchmarks using analytic estimates of execution time and a per-layer fidelity proxy, comparing against a placement-matched baseline and against ablations of our own pipeline. Hub traps make these otherwise-unsolved circuits compile in seconds to minutes and remove SWAP gates entirely on every completed circuit, so their role is to enable routing rather than only to optimize fidelity. The benefit is concentrated on routing-dominated circuits and is absent on routing-free ones, which we separate by the structure of the interaction graph. On the most routing-dominated circuit the fidelity proxy improves by up to three orders of magnitude over the placement-matched baseline. The gain comes primarily from eliminating SWAP overhead, as the absolute fidelities there remain low.
