Interaction effects in topological superconducting wires supporting Majorana fermions

Interaction effects in topological superconducting wires supporting Majorana fermions

Among the broad spectrum of systems predicted to exhibit topological superconductivity and Majorana fermions, one-dimensional wires with strong spin-orbit coupling provide one of the most promising experimental candidates. Here we investigate the fate of the topological superconducting phase in such wires when repulsive interactions are present. Using a combination of …
