Fermion Parity Flips and Majorana Bound States at twist defects in Superconducting Fractional Topological Phases

Mayukh Nilay Khan, Jeffrey C. Y. Teo, Taylor L. Hughes +1

In this paper we consider a layered heterostructure of an Abelian topologically ordered state (TO), such as a fractional Chern insulator/quantum Hall state with an s-wave supercond…
