The 1937 theoretical discovery of Majorana fermions—whose defining property is that they
are their own anti-particles—has since impacted diverse problems ranging from neutrino …

Topological quantum computation has emerged as one of the most exciting approaches to
constructing a fault-tolerant quantum computer. The proposal relies on the existence of …

We provide a current perspective on the rapidly develo** field of Majorana zero modes
(MZMs) in solid-state systems. We emphasise the theoretical prediction, experimental …

We describe an autonomous DNA nanorobot capable of transporting molecular payloads to
cells, sensing cell surface inputs for conditional, triggered activation, and reconfiguring its …

Motivated by the recent discovery of fractional quantum anomalous Hall states in moiré
systems, we consider the possibility of realizing non-Abelian phases in topological …

Southern Africa is consistently placed as a potential region for the evolution of Homo
sapiens. We present genome sequences, up to 13x coverage, from seven ancient …

Topological states of matter are characterized by topological invariants, which are physical
quantities whose values are quantized and do not depend on the details of the system (such …

We propose a particle-hole symmetric theory of the Fermi-liquid ground state of a half-filled
Landau level. This theory should be applicable for a Dirac fermion in the magnetic field at …

Topological insulators and their intriguing edge states can be understood in a single-particle
picture and can as such be exhaustively classified. Interactions significantly complicate this …

Non-Abelian anyons promise to reveal spectacular features of quantum mechanics that
could ultimately provide the foundation for a decoherence-free quantum computer. A key …
