Quantum Simulations of Topological Majorana Modes

Rezumat:

Modern quantum devices can now outperform classical computers in physical simulations, which makes them an important tool for future physics research. As an example, I will focus on simulating the topological states of matter hosting Majorana modes — the exotic “half-electron” states. Observing Majorana modes in the lab remains elusive, despite their importance for creating a new generation of protected quantum computing. However, I will demonstrate that anyone can recreate topological Majorana modes through cloud-based quantum simulations. Hence, we explore new perspectives in physics provided by the current generation of quantum hardware.
