Majorana fermions have recently garnered a great attention outside the field of particle
physics, in condensed matter physics. In contrast to their particle physics counterparts …

Magnetic atoms coupled to the Cooper pairs of a superconductor induce Yu-Shiba-Rusinov
states (in short Shiba states). In the presence of sufficiently strong spin-orbit coupling, the …

Inspired by the recent experimental observation of topological superconductivity in
ferromagnetic chains, we consider a dilute 2D lattice of magnetic atoms deposited on top of …

The chiral p-wave superconductor is the archetypal example of a state of matter that
supports non-Abelian anyons, a highly desired type of exotic quasiparticle. With this, it is …

A recent experiment [Nadj-Perge et al, Science 346, 602 (2014)] gives possible evidence for
Majorana bound states in chains of magnetic adatoms placed on a superconductor. While …

Novel many-body and topological electronic phases can be created in assemblies of
interacting spins coupled to a superconductor, such as one-dimensional topological …

We identify the leading processes of electron transport across finite-length segments of
proximitized nanowires and build a quantitative theory of their two-terminal conductance. In …

Noncollinear magnetism opens exciting possibilities to generate topological
superconductivity. Here, we focus on helical and cycloidal magnetic textures in magnet …

We investigate the properties of a Fibonacci quasicrystal (QC) arrangement of a one-
dimensional topological superconductor, such as a magnetic atom chain deposited on a …

We study a chain of magnetic moments exchange coupled to a conventional three-
dimensional superconductor. In the normal state the chain orders into a collinear …
