Abstract
Quantum computing operates in a fundamentally different way from classical computing by harnessing the principles of quantum mechanics to process information. Quantum supremacy is achieved when a quantum computer can solve problems that are beyond the capabilities of classical systems, including the human brain, showcasing its superior processing power. To attain quantum supremacy, quantum entanglement and qubit interactions play a pivotal role. Quantum entanglement occurs when qubits are interconnected in a manner where the state of one qubit directly influences the state of others, enabling the quantum computer to perform multiple operations simultaneously. Moreover, effective interaction between qubits is essential for the performance of complex calculations in quantum systems, highlighting the significance of coherence and error correction. Understanding the importance of coherence in preventing and rectifying errors in quantum computations is crucial. This paper aims to explore the critical aspects of quantum entanglement and qubit interactions, which are foundational to the operation of quantum computers. By delving into these key concepts, the paper aims to elucidate their significant roles in achieving quantum supremacy. The discussion will center on how quantum entanglement, which allows enhanced computational parallelism through qubit interconnection, and efficient qubit interactions vital for complex computations, contribute to surpassing the capabilities of classical computers. Comprehending these principles is crucial for advancing quantum computing technology and overcoming the challenges to unleash its full potential.
