Coulomb manipulation of Majorana fermions with superconducting circuits
Creation of isolated Majorana fermions, the simplest type of
non-Abelian anyons, in one out of many superconductor-semiconductor
hybrid systems seems reachable within a few years time.
I will introduce a scheme for manipulation of Majorana fermions using
existent superconducting circuits, namely transmon qubits.
Within this framework I will consider in particular the minimal setup
required to measure the unusual properties of Majorana fermions, and a
possible implementation of a scalable quantum computer that relies on
the topological properties of Majorana fermions.
