Hunting Majorana fermions in Kitaev magnets
A Majorana fermion is a fermionic particle that is its own antiparticle. Since the theoretical
discovery by Ettore Majorana in 1937, the exotic particle has long been searched in particle …

Subdiffusive dynamics and critical quantum correlations in a disorder-free localized Kitaev honeycomb model out of equilibrium
Disorder-free localization has recently emerged as a mechanism for ergodicity breaking in
homogeneous lattice gauge theories. In this work we show that this mechanism can lead to …
