In (1+1)D topological phases, unpaired Majorana zero modes (MZMs) can arise only if the internal symmetry group $G_f$ of the ground state splits as $G_f = G_b \times \mathbb{Z}_2^f$, where $\mathbb{Z}_2^f$ is generated by fermion parity,…

Strong zero modes (SZMs) are edge-localized operators that commute with the Hamiltonian up to corrections exponentially small in system size, yielding anomalously long edge coherence times. In some settings, notably certain integrable…
Topological phases of matter remain a focus of interest due to their unique properties -- fractionalisation, ground state degeneracy, and exotic excitations. While some of these properties can occur in systems of free fermions, their…
Majorana fermions have recently garnered a great attention outside the field of particle physics, in condensed matter physics. In contrast to their particle physics counterparts, Majorana fermions are zero energy, chargeless, spinless,…
We consider the Sine-Gordon model coupled to 2D gravity. We find a nonperturbative expression for the partition function as a function of the cosmological constant, the SG mass and the SG coupling constant. At genus zero, the partition…
We present numerical studies of zero-temperature Gaussian random-field Ising model (zt-GRFIM) in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium. We compare the no-passing rule, mean-field exponents and universal quantities in 3D (avalanche critical…
Zero modes of massive standard model fermions have been found on electroweak Z-strings. A zero mode solution for a massless left-handed neutrino is also known, but was thought to be non-normalizable. Here we show that although this mode is…
We address the question of whether individual nonmagnetic impurities can induce zero-energy states in time-reversal-invariant topological superconductors, and define a class of symmetries which guarantee the existence of such states for a…
