Achieving Quantum Supremacy with Stabilized Qubits: Performance Comparison Against Classical Supercomputing Systems
Eka Cahya Muliawati
This study aims to analyze recent developments in quantum supremacy by comparing the computational performance of stabilized superconducting qubit systems with classical supercomputing capabilities. A systematic literature review was conducted on major experimental studies published between 2019 and 2024, focusing on random circuit sampling, qubit stability, gate fidelity, and computational runtime comparisons. The analysis covers key quantum processors, including Sycamore and Zuchongzhi, by evaluating three main parameters: number of qubits, circuit complexity, and performance gap relative to classical simulation.The results show that quantum processors with 50–100 qubits and high gate fidelity are able to complete specific sampling tasks within seconds to hours, whereas equivalent classical simulations would require thousands to billions of years. The findings also indicate that computational advantage increases exponentially with system scale and is strongly influenced by qubit stability and error suppression techniques. Although the demonstrated tasks remain specialized and not yet applicable to practical problems, the evidence confirms that stabilized qubit systems have achieved a measurable computational regime beyond classical feasibility.This review provides a clear synthesis of current experimental achievements and highlights that future progress toward practical quantum advantage depends on improvements in error correction, scalability, and hardware reliability.
