To Close or Not to Close: The Fate of the Superconducting Gap Across the Topological Quantum Phase Transition in Majorana-Carrying Semiconductor Nanowires

We investigate theoretically the low energy physics of semiconductor Majorana wires in the vicinity of a magnetic field-driven topological quantum phase transition (TQPT). The local density of states (LDOS) at the end of the wire, which is directly related to the differential conductance in the limit of point-contact tunneling, is …
