Tunable couplers enable the realization of efficient two-qubit gates with a high on/off coupling ratio and reduced crosstalk in a single design. In this work, we theoretically explore designs for fast, high-fidelity two-qubit gates between superconducting fluxonium qubits using an inductive tunable coupler. We use this coupler to realize gates from the f-Sim family using fast-flux control on the coupler and qubits. Additionally, we examine parametric two-qubit gates on this architecture to further improve gate performance. We also examine the effects of fabrication errors, leakage and decoherence in our design.
