Properties and prevalence of false poor man's Majoranas in two- and three-site artificial Kitaev chains
Melina Luethi, Henry F. Legg, Daniel Loss +1
It was predicted that a minimal chain of two quantum dots (QDs) connected via a superconductor can host perfectly localized zero-energy states, known as poor man's Majoranas (PMMs)…

Fate of poor man's Majoranas in the long Kitaev chain limit
Melina Luethi, Henry F. Legg, Daniel Loss +1
A minimal Kitaev chain, consisting of two quantum dots connected via a superconductor, can host highly localized near-zero-energy states, known as poor man's Majoranas (PMMs). Thes…

From perfect to imperfect poor man's Majoranas in minimal Kitaev chains
Melina Luethi, Henry F. Legg, Daniel Loss +1
Poor man's Majoranas (PMMs) hold the promise to engineer Majorana bound states in a highly tunable setup consisting of a chain of quantum dots that are connected via superconductor…
