Most superconductors are thermal insulators. A disordered chiral \textit{p}-wave superconductor, however, can make a transition to a thermal metal phase. Because heat is then transported by Majorana fermions, this phase is referred to as a Majorana m

The chiral edge modes of a topological superconductor can transport fermionic quasiparticles, with Abelian exchange statistics, but they can also transport non-Abelian anyons: Edge-vortices bound to a $\pi$-phase domain wall that propagates along the

A supercurrent on the proximitized surface of a topological insulator can cause a delocalization transition of a Majorana fermion bound to a vortex core as a zero-mode. Here we study the dynamics of the deconfinement, as a manifestation of the Magnus

The spectrum of massless Dirac fermions on the surface of a topological insulator in a perpendicular magnetic field $B$ contains a $B$-independent "zeroth Landau level", protected by chiral symmetry. If the Dirac equation is discretized on a lattice

Massless Dirac fermions in an electric field propagate along the field lines without backscattering, due to the combination of spin-momentum locking and spin conservation. This phenomenon, known as "Klein tunneling", may be lost if the Dirac equation

The symmetries that protect massless Dirac fermions from a gap opening may become ineffective if the Dirac equation is discretized in space and time, either because of scattering between multiple Dirac cones in the Brillouin zone (fermion doubling) o

We calculate the spectral statistics of the Kramers-Weyl Hamiltonian $H=v\sum_{\alpha} \sigma_\alpha\sin p_\alpha+t \sigma_0\sum_\alpha\cos p_\alpha$ in a chaotic quantum dot. The Hamiltonian has symplectic time-reversal symmetry ($H$ is invariant wh

We identify a signature of chirality in the electrical conduction along magnetic vortices in a Weyl superconductor: The conductance depends on whether the magnetic field is parallel or antiparallel to the vector in the Brillouin zone that separates W

Fu and Kane have discovered that a topological insulator with induced s-wave superconductivity (gap $\Delta_0$, Fermi velocity $v_{\rm F}$, Fermi energy $\mu$) supports chiral Majorana modes propagating on the surface along the edge with a magnetic i
