Topological superconductors: Fate of Majorana fermions after a quantum quench

P.D. Sacramento - CeFEMA-IST, Univ. de Lisboa

The stability and robustness of Majorana modes at the edge of a topological superconductor are studied following a sudden or slow quantum quench, as well as their emergence in the presence of a periodic external perturbation.
