Spatial profile of the Majorana fermion wave function in a one-dimensional $p$-wave superconductors ($\cal{PWS}$) with quasi periodic disorder is shown to exhibit spatial oscillations. These oscillations damp out in the interior of the…

The properties of vortices in Josephson junction arrays are investigated in the quantum regime near the superconductor-insulator transition. We derive and study an effective action for vortex dynamics that is valid in the region where the…

In this letter we show that the zero-point motion of the vortex in superconducting doped topological insulators leads to significant changes in the electronic spectrum at the topological phase transition in this system. This topological…

In a superconducting topological insulator, superconducting vortex line may trap 1-dimensional topological band with Majorana zero modes (MZMs) localized at its ends. In this work, we study the effect of hexagonal warping to the vortex…

The edge state of the topological insulator coupled to a superconductor system is able to simulate the Majorana fermion in zero energy mode since the Kitaev-type pairing is induced by exchanging quasi-excitations in electron tunneling.…

We study all possible Majorana modes in two-dimensional spin-orbit coupled ferromagnetic superconductor-normal state-superconductor (SNS) Josephson junctions and propose experiments to detect them. With the S region in a non-trivial…

We demonstrate that Majorana fermions exist in edges of systems and in a vortex core even for superconductors with nodal excitations such as the d-wave pairing state under a particular but realistic condition in the case with an…

It is shown that the presence of the Majorana fermion edge states along the perimeter of a topological superconductor can be probed using an interacting quantum dot coupled to three terminals: two spin-polarized (ferromagnetic) leads and…

We study the equilibrium Josephson current between an s-wave superconductor and a topological superconducting nanowire with Majorana bound states (MBS) at its ends. Within a low-energy model we show analytically that the non-locality of the…

We consider the one-dimensional (1D) topological superconductor that may form in a planar superconductor-metal-superconductor Josephson junction in which the metal is is subjected to spin orbit coupling and to an in-plane magnetic field.…

We propose a setup involving Majorana bound states (MBS) hosted by a vortex on a superconducting surface of a 3D Topological Insulator (TI). We consider a narrow channel drilled across a TI slab with both sides covered by s-wave…

The 1D Kitaev model in the topological phase, with open boundary conditions, hosts strong Majorana zero modes. These are fermion parity-odd operators that almost commute with the Hamiltonian and manifest in long coherence times for edge…

Majorana fermions (MFs) are predicted to occur as zero-energy bound states in semiconductor nanowire-superconductor structures. However, in the presence of disorder or smooth confining potentials, these structures can also host…

The motion of a quantized vortex is intimately connected with its microscopic structure and the elementary excitations of the surrounding fluid. In this work, we investigate the two-dimensional motion of a single vortex orbiting a pinned…

Semiconducting nanowires in proximity to superconductors are among promising candidates to search for Majorana fermions and topologically protected degeneracies which may ultimately be used as building blocks for topological quantum…

The Majorana zero mode (MZM), which manifests as an exotic neutral excitation in superconductors, is the building block of topological quantum computing. It has recently been found in the vortices of several iron-based superconductors as a…

We theoretically investigate the behavior of dark solitons in a one-dimensional spin-orbit coupled atomic Fermi gas in harmonic traps, by solving self-consistently the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations. The dark soliton - to be created by…

Fu and Kane have taught us that a Majorana zero-mode appears on the quantum spin Hall edge at the interface with a superconductor. If a magnetic scatterer is placed on the edge, the zero-point energy of massless edge excitations exerts a…

We investigate the mesoscopic resistor-capacitor circuit consisting of a quantum dot coupled to spatially separated Majorana fermion modes in a chiral topological superconductor. We find substantially enhanced relaxation resistance due to…

We study a one-dimensional (1D) interacting electronic liquid coupled to a 1D array of classical magnetic moments and to a superconductor. We show that at low energy and temperature the magnetic moments and the electrons become strongly…
