Majorana bound states in topological superconductors have attracted intense research activity in view of applications in topological quantum computation. However, they are not the only example of topological bound states that can occur in such systems. We here study a model in which both Majorana and Tamm bound states compete. We show both numerically and analytically that, surprisingly, the Tamm state remains partially localized even when the spectrum becomes gapless. Despite this fact, we demonstrate that the Majorana polarization shows a clear transition between the two regimes.

AbstractEfficient manipulation of quantum states is a key step towards applications in quantum information, quantum metrology, and nonlinear optics. Recently, atomic arrays have been shown to be a promising system for exploring topological quantum optics and robust control of quantum states, where the inherent nonlinearity is included through long-range hoppings. Here we show that a one-dimensional atomic array in a periodic magnetic field exhibits characteristic properties associated with an effective two-dimensional Hofstadter-butterfly-like model. Our work points out super- and sub-radiant topological edge states localized at the boundaries of the atomic array despite featuring long-range interactions, and opens an avenue of exploring an interacting quantum optical platform with synthetic dimensions.

In the first part of this review we introduce the basics theory behind geometric phases and emphasize their importance in quantum theory. The subject is presented in a general way so as to illustrate its wide applicability, but we also introduce a number of examples that will help the reader understand the basic issues involved. In the second part we show how to perform a universal quantum computation using only geometric effects appearing in quantum phases. It is then finally discussed how this geometric way of performing quantum gates can lead to a stable, large scale, intrinsically fault-tolerant quantum computer.
