Exploiting the Dynamics of Majorana-Majorana Hybridisation — •Themba Hodge, Eric Mascot, Daniel Crawford, and Stephan Rachel — School of Physics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Australia

Qubits built out of Majorana-Zero Modes (MZMs) have long been theorised as a potential pathway toward fault-tolerant topological quantum computation. However, almost unavoidable in these processes is the overlapping of the different Majorana wavefunctions that arise throughout the process. This leads to a qubit-error due to Majorana-Majorana hybridisation, changing the outcome of the computation. This work presents a method to track the dynamical evolution of the Majorana wavefunctions, allowing one to track transitions in the ground-state subspace and calculate time-dependent correlation functions that provide the output of quantum computations. This is compared to exact, time-dependent superconducting simulations utilising the method introduced in [1], to confirm the advantage of this approach to make accurate dynamical predictions without the need for full many-body calculations. We also show how Majorana-Majorana hybridisation enable arbitrary quantum gates, including the magic-gate.
