We theoretically study the effect of orbital-dependent exchange field in the formation of second order topological superconductors. We demonstrate that changing the orbital difference can induce topological transition and the Majorana…
We investigate the emergence of topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes in the two-dimensional electron gas formed at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ (001) interface. Using a realistic multiband tight binding model that incorporates…
We study the energy levels and transport properties of an extended Kitaev chain with a phase gradient. It is demonstrated that the hopping phase difference can effectively induce the generation of Majorana bound states, which are located at…
We study topological transitions in one dimensional superconductors that can harbor multiple edge Majorana bound states protected by chiral symmetry. The chiral symmetry arises due to the structure of the internal spin degrees of freedom of…
Engineering chiral $p$-wave superconductivity in semiconductor structures offers fascinating ways to obtain and study Majorana modes in a condensed matter context. Here, we theoretically investigate chiral $p$-wave superconductivity in…
Quantum phase transitions are sudden changes in the ground-state wavefunction of a many-body system that can occur as a control parameter such as a concentration or a field strength is varied. They are driven purely by the competition…
We theoretically study topological superconductivity in elongated planar Josephson junctions. In the presence of spin-orbit coupling and an in-plane magnetic field, the Josephson junction can enter the topological phase and host zero-energy…
The non-Abelian exchange statistics of Majorana zero modes make them interesting for both technological applications and fundamental research. Unlike their non-Abelian counterpart, the Abelian contribution, $e^{i\theta}$, where $\theta$ is…
We investigate string correlations in an infinite-size spin-1/2 bond-alternating Heisenberg chain. By employing the infinite matrix product state representation with the infinite time evolving block decimation method, a finite string…
We analyse an exactly solvable spin-$1/2$ chain which is a generalised version of Kitaev's honeycomb model. We show that every state of the system has a $2^{N/4}$ fold degeneracy, where $N$ is the number of sites. We present analytic…
Electron transport through the T-shaped quantum-dot (QD) structure is theoretically investigated, by considering a Majorana zero mode coupled to the terminal QD. It is found that in the double-QD case, the presence of the Majorana zero mode…
An exactly solvable Kitaev model in a two-dimensional square lattice exhibits a topological quantum phase transition which is different from the symmetry-breaking transition at zero temperature. When the ground state of a nonlinearly…
We study the response of classical impurities in quantum Ising chains. The Z2 degeneracy they entail renders the existence of two decoupled Majorana modes at zero energy an exact property of a finite system at arbitrary values of its bulk…
A new procedure of trial variational wave functional is proposed for investigating the mass renormailzation and the local structure of the ground state of a one-dimensional quantum sine-Gordon model with linear spatial modulation, whose…
The interplay between a topological degeneracy and the residue degeneracy (also known as the residue entropy) of quantum criticality remains as an important but not thoroughly understood topic. We find that this topological degeneracy,…
We introduce a density matrix-based network analysis to explore the ground state of the Kitaev chain, uncovering previously hidden structural and entanglement features. This approach successfully identifies the critical point associated…
Light-matter interaction plays a crucial role in modifying the properties of quantum materials. In this work, we investigate the effect of cavity induced photon fields on a topological superconductor hosting Majorana bound states (MBS). We…
Majorana zero modes in condensed matter systems have been the subject of much interest in recent years. Their non-Abelian exchange statistics, making them a unique state of matter, and their potential applications in topological quantum…
We study Kitaev model in one-dimension with open boundary condition by using exact analytic methods for non-interacting system at zero chemical potential as well as in the symmetric case of {\Delta} = t, and by using…
Topological phases of matter that depend for their existence on interactions are fundamentally interesting and potentially useful as platforms for future quantum computers. Despite the multitude of theoretical proposals the only…
