Majorana fermions in the nonuniform Ising-Kitaev chain: exact solution

Majorana fermions in the nonuniform Ising-Kitaev chain: exact solution

Abstract A quantum computer based on Majorana qubits would contain a large number of zero-energy Majorana states. This system can be modelled as a connected network of the Ising-Kitaev chains alternating the “trivial” and “topological” regions, with the zero-energy Majorana fermions localized at their interfaces. The low-energy sector of the …
