Scalable Designs for Quasiparticle-Poisoning-Protected Topological Quantum Computation with Majorana Zero Modes
Torsten Karzig, Christina Knapp, Roman M. Lutchyn +9
We present designs for scalable quantum computers composed of qubits encoded in aggregates of four or more Majorana zero modes, realized at the ends of topological superconducting…
Disordered Topological Insulators via -Algebras
T. A. Loring, M. B. Hastings
The theory of almost commuting matrices can be used to quantify topological obstructions to the existence of localized Wannier functions with time-reversal symmetry in systems with…
Projective Ribbon Permutation Statistics: a Remnant of non-Abelian Braiding in Higher Dimensions
Michael Freedman, Matthew B. Hastings, Chetan Nayak +3
In a recent paper, Teo and Kane proposed a 3D model in which the defects support Majorana fermion zero modes. They argued that exchanging and twisting these defects would implement…
Intermittent polaron dynamics: Born-Oppenheimer out of equilibrium
D. Mozyrsky, M. B. Hastings, I. Martin
We consider the non-equilibrium dynamics of a molecular level interacting with local phonon modes in the case of a strong polaronic shift which prevents a perturbative treatment of…
Spin-Orbit Scattering and Time-Reversal Symmetry: Detection of a Spin by Tunneling
M. B. Hastings
We consider the possibility of detecting spin precession in a magnetic field by nonequilibrium transport processes. We find that time reversal symmetry imposes strong constraints o…
Renormalization of resonant tunneling in MOSFETs
D. Mozyrsky, I. Martin, A. Shnirman +1
We study tunneling between a localized defect state and a conduction band in the presence of strong electron-electron and electron-phonons interactions. We derive the tunneling rat…
